The Zombies Are Invading Bodycam
Bodycam is getting a major dose of horror with its upcoming v0.9 update, titled The Dead & Damned. Developer Reissad has announced that the update will arrive on Steam on November 13, bringing a collection of Zombies content and several improvements to the tactical multiplayer shooter.
Players won’t have to wait until launch to try out the new content, either. A 24-hour public playtest will run from November 11 at 09:00 UTC until November 12 at 09:00 UTC. Interested players can request access through the game’s Steam page, although spaces are limited. There is also no NDA, meaning participants can freely stream their gameplay and share their experiences.
The highlight of The Dead & Damned is Zombie Trenches, a brand-new Zombies mode set on the Trenches map. Players can also revisit Village and Asylum, both of which are returning with improvements. Other additions include weapon boxes featuring random attachments, a reworked Public Pool map, and Easy Anti-Cheat support. The update will also introduce a new lobby room where players can use drones and RC cars.
Bodycam has already built a sizeable community since entering Early Access on June 8, 2024. The game currently boasts more than 72,900 Steam reviews, with 81% of them being positive, alongside over 3.7 million wishlists.
With another Zombies-focused update on the way, Bodycam is giving players a good reason to jump back in. The upcoming playtest should also offer an early taste of what’s coming before The Dead & Damned officially launches later this week.
