"DayZ" Is Getting A New Update With Tons Of Landscape

Bohemia Interactive has announced a brand new update coming to DayZ as Livonia will be giving you 163 square kilometers of lush greenery. Oh, and bears, lots of bears. You can check out the trailer below as the new map is introduced into the survival game. Filled with lots of forests, rivers, and sprawling landscape, as well as creatures who can harm or kill you. No word yet on when the update will go live.

Based on the recently released map from the Arma 3 Contact spin-off expansion, the Livonia region brings a fresh new experience to the post-apocalyptic world of DayZ. With vast green landscapes, dense expansive forests, serene lakes, and winding rivers, the 163km2 Livonia map offers the perfect backdrop for any survivor lost in the wild.

The landscape, however, won't be the only change of pace for DayZ players. The temperate late summer climate of Livonia will bring frequent rainfall and thunderstorms, providing players with additional environmental challenges during their travels – and making protective gear and shelter more important than ever. And, of course, with a new wilderness comes new wildlife. Most prominently, there is a new predator roaming the forests of Livonia – bears! – and they won't take kindly to human-shaped threats. Survivors will have to be well-equipped to effectively deal with these grizzly foes.
