DayZ has reached many goals nowadays, even though the community has cherished only a portion of it. Bohemia Interactive’s survival game, DayZ, has received a new update 1.08, which adds multiple new items to the game. Items necessary to strengthen DayZ in the long run.
It would be ignorant not to say that we’ve talked about before during its impact on the experimental servers. This update consolidates the cooking feature to a new extent but also tweaks a couple of already existing weapons and attachments. Bug fixes have always been a part of a new update in DayZ, so as they’re present in this one.
As a celebration to DayZ’s latest update, Bohemia Interactive has also compiled a short video to showcase the new changes in action. Below you can take a look at the teaser and also the patch notes.
