Saber Interactive have today announced that the free next-gen update for World War Z: Aftermath will launch this month for the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X | S.

It will launch on January 24th, with PS4 and Xbox owners receiving a free upgrade, featuring vivid 4K|60 FPS action, on their respective platforms.

January 24 will also mark the arrival of the new supersized Horde Mode XL, available in Aftermath exclusively on PlayStation5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. Horde Mode XL follows the same rules as the game’s standard Horde Mode, with a devilish twist — scattered among the normal waves of enemies will be a special XL wave bursting with over 1,000 hungry zombies. You and your team will have to pull out all the stops to survive this overwhelming and terrifying challenge.

All World War Z: Aftermath and World War Z players on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and PC will also receive a free update on January 24 that introduces mutators into the standard Horde Mode Z game mode, along with devastating and deadly new weapons and a revamped and improved weapon progression system.
