Despite the unstable launch, John Smedley, CEO of Daybreak Game Company, announced that the game had sold over a million copies by March 2015. A new bug, which made all servers go offline, was also introduced to the game after the developer released a patch to fix other problems. At release, the game suffered from numerous technical issues, such as players reporting that they could not login to their account or enter any active server. Z1 Battle Royale was originally released on Steam's early access program on January 15, 2015, as H1Z1.
In April 2019, development of the game was given back over to Daybreak. A month later however, development of the game was transferred to NantG Mobile, who attempted to revert the game back to an earlier build from 2017, rebranding it as Z1 Battle Royale. The games were further split as separate projects in October 2017, with Just Survive dropping the H1Z1 name, and King of the Kill becoming simply H1Z1.Īfter three years of being in early access for Windows, H1Z1 officially released as a free-to-play game in February 2018, later released for the PlayStation 4 in August 2018. The game's development began after the original H1Z1 was spun off into two separate projects in early 2016: H1Z1: Just Survive and H1Z1: King of the Kill. The Xbox One version of the game is still in development.Z1 Battle Royale (formerly H1Z1 and King of the Kill) is a battle royale game developed and published by Daybreak Game Company. H1Z1: Battle Royale is now available for the PC and PS4. Currently, the season pass for H1Z1 is priced at $5.49, which is relatively cheaper than Fortnite’s battle pass that runs for $10. Similar to Fortnite, the game will also include a battle pass, that will give players access to a set of challenges and customization options such as outfits, and aesthetic changes for weapons. Of course, PS Plus members will get exclusive bonus content that will include different cosmetic items, and an emote. A couple of individual launch bundles are also available in the PlayStation store and prices will start at $5 up. Similar to other games in the battle royale genre, H1Z1 is a free-to-play game, offering a plethora of content and in-game currency in exchange for real-world money.
Now, the game is out of beta and is available to download on the PlayStation Store. A couple of weeks ago, an announcement was made regarding the full PS4 release of H1Z1: Battle Royale, which has been in open beta since May of this year.
