HumantiZ, the isometric open-world zombie survival sandbox by developer Yodubzz Studios and indie.io, prepares for the end of the world and the end of Steam Early Access with a 1.0 launch on PC via Steam on Friday, Feb. 6, 2026.
Humanity has fallen. The dead rose, the world burned, and only the rotting husk of civilization remains. In HumanityZ’s 1.0 launch, return to a world that has become even more vicious, unpredictable, and alive with terror. Survival isn’t a goal: it’s a war that never ends, with plenty of post-launch content updates already on the pipeline.
Fight to exist and resist extinction as one of the last living humans. Scavenge through the ruined bones of the old world for supplies, build fortified bases before dusk swallows the light, and craft weapons to keep nightmares at bay. The wilderness has grown feral, the undead are hungrier, and the few survivors left are one bad decision away from joining their ranks. Team up with up to four friends to increase the chances of survival, or choose to die alone.
The 1.0 release of HumanitZ marks the most chilling evolution of the game to date, featuring new content, optimizations, add-ons, and more, that wouldn’t be possible without the community’s help and input. Survivors now step into the apocalypse with fully redesigned character models and deeper customization than ever before. Skill trees and professions have been rebuilt, transforming progression into a high-stakes journey shaped by tactical choices, branching paths, and risky multiclassing.
The revamped infection system turns every zombie encounter into a frightening strategic gamble. Infection now creeps through the bloodstream in real time, so stay alert, treat wounds early, and pray for survival before your lungs fill with rot.
HumanitZ’s bleak world has become far more hostile yet far more rewarding. Anywhere, USA, has been completely reimagined with denser environments, unpredictable hazards, and new points of interest hiding both essential resources and unspeakable threats. Abandoned hospitals, forgotten strongholds, toppled suburbs, overrun woods, and more locations hold secrets for sharp-eyed survivors.
Only the bravest will seek out what once seemed unreachable: The Island, a new endgame region for elite players. Remote, mysterious, crawling with evolved threats, and shrouded in rumors of a truth long buried beneath blood and ruin, the Island serves as the ultimate survival test.
In the apocalypse, every sunrise means borrowed time. Every zombie is a promise of pain. And every step toward survival demands cunning, grit, and a refusal to die.
“We’ve come a long way since launching into Early Access in 2023. Shaped by both our development team and an incredibly passionate community, HumanitZ 1.0 has mutated and evolved into something terrifying and incredible,” said Yozza, Lead Game Designer. “This release marks the next major evolution, and both long-time and new players will find a deeper, more immersive zombie experience packed with all-new content and improvements, with even more still to come
HumanitZ eliminates a zombie takeover as it exits Steam Early Access for Windows PC on Friday, Feb. 6, 2026. It will include language support for English, French, German, Spanish, Japanese, Korean, Brazilian Portuguese, Russian, Simplified Chinese, and Italian.
