Focus Home Interactive and Saber released the Dronemaster Update for World War Z that adds full PvE crossplay. Thus, the game will now allow you to party up in co-op with friends no matter what platform they’re on. Furthermore, the teams have released a brand new trailer that you can find below.
This latest update also adds the Dronemaster class. This highly versatile character comes with its own personal drone which stuns zombies when they get too close for comfort. You can customize your drone in the perk tree to suit your play style and squad comp: increase its offensive capabilities to make it more lethal in an assault, or raise its defensive powers to better support your team.
In addition, today’s update features a new rare weapon pick-up with its own upgrade tree for your armory: the ACW-20. This low-caliber, semi-automatic grenade launcher is perfect for mopping up tightly packed group. There’s also a variety of new weapon upgrades, perk rebalancing, fixes and quality-of-life improvements.
As always, Epic Games Store will download this update the next time you launch its client.
Enjoy!

Crossplay function is practically useless, these clowns still have not added in a way to invite cross platform friends or even add them to your friends list.
Hundreds have asked them to on there Facebook, but they keep saying they are “working” on it. When asked how can we play with friends, they tell people literally, to just que up the random matchmaking and “hope” your friends get matched up with you on the same game…..
How you gonna release cross play and not have a way for people to invite their friends from other platforms?
…and the game is still an EGS exclusive after more than a year.
They literally gave it away for free so I can’t complain too much.
Yeah but people don’t want games to be restricted to the EGS. For example, Zombie Army 4 is completely dead on PC because of the EGS exclusivity deal and there’s no crossplay on the horizon to save it.
Tried to get into this, but it just felt like a janky, crappy Left 4 Dead knockoff.
