TGIF! Zombie Slayer Updates for February 20, 2026

Happy Friday, players!

We hope you all had a wonderful Valentine’s weekend and that it was full of love, relaxation and gaming. We’re back with your weekly Zombie Slayer update and just a reminder to check out the jam packed “Coming Soon” section. Now without further ado, let’s jump into the news of the week!

In-Game Updates:

The Faction Wars event begins today! Zombie Slayer players can dive in starting at 10AM (PST). Rally your team and make sure you’re all enrolled before it kicks off. Battle hard for the best rewards and good luck!

Tijuana is getting a brand NEW Prestige Tier! If you've completed Bronze through Gold in the Prestige Tijuana Location, you can now take it one tier further with Platinum! Eligible Slayers can revisit Tijuana & complete higher Tier Outbreaks to earn bonus XP, Cash, Skill Points, & Prestige Coins & more. Read more about Prestige Locations here: https://support.kanoplay.com/hc/en/7-zombie-slayer/faq/699-prestige-locations/?p=all

Next week join us for an Admin Blitz event! If you're around on the following date, make sure to drop by & nab some sweet Coin off of the Kano folk. Watch out for the group chats that get posted beforehand and remember to bump up those Admins Killed and Listed stats.

Admin Blitz events will now also have a special Kano item giveaway, so don’t miss out! We hope to see you there on:

Tuesday, February 24th - Server 1, Server 2, and the Kongregate & Armor Servers @ 3PM (PST).

Next week starting on Monday February 23rd is Blitz Week! All week long there will be an increased number of Blitz events running, including a mixture of the new special modes. Keep an eye out for targets and rack up those kills!

Lastly, a reminder that twice a week there are new item drops in-game. Limited Time items on Tuesdays and Limited Quantity on Fridays. Keep an eye out for anything that catches your interest!

Tip of the Week: We've recently added Faction Tags! Faction Leaders can now apply up to 5 (maximum) tags to their Faction to give other players a better picture of your playstyle, play frequency, time zone, etc. Players can now also search & sort by Faction Tags when looking for a specific type of Faction to join!
