![]() ![]() A little over a year later, Daybreak announced the game was being split into two separate projects - H1Z1: Just Survive and H1Z1: King of the Kill - each with their own dedicated development teams. H1Z1 originally launched as a Steam Early Access title on January 15, 2015. H1Z1 producer Terrence Yee said the entire development team has worked tirelessly to build on the game's early success, adding that they're thrilled with the overwhelmingly positive response to H1Z1's PS4 debut. H1Z1, described by Daybreak as the original standalone battle royale shooter, has officially exited open beta and is now a fully free-to-play game on PlayStation 4. The servers will briefly drop to allow for the update, but Daybreak promises bug fixes, a new weapon slot swap function, and the welcome addition of EMP grenades to quite literally help blow opponents away by messing with nearby vehicles.Why it matters: PlayStation 4 gamers looking for an alternative to Fortnite may find solace in H1Z1, a free-to-play battle royale game from developer Daybreak Games that attracted more than 10 million new players during its first month in open beta. Another update is already on the way, meaning that H1Z1 will continue to evolve with the other battle royale behemoths. ![]() While PUBG has a head start on H1Z1, the figures show that the PS4 game still has the competition firmly in its crosshairs. Up to 150 players at once are dropped into the 15-minute deathmatch and the game is already getting the thumbs up from a lot of players.Ĭonsidering PUBG's Brendan Greene started out as a developer from H1Z1, fans can see similarities between the two games and yet plenty of differences too. Reimagining the early versions of Daybreak's game to run specifically on the PS4, H1Z1's console version includes new weaponry and controls to avoid the criticism's of the PC's sluggish gameplay. Even with numbers swelling to 1.5 million downloads in the first few days, to reach these latest statistics less than a month after launch is a major achievement. It may have been a long time coming, but the hype of H1Z1 finally hitting the PS4 managed to net an impressive 2000,000 concurrent players on day one. ![]()
