TGIF! Zombie Slayer Updates for October 3, 2025

Happy Friday, players!

The month of spookiness is here! Halloween is on the horizon, so it’s a great time to soak in all the scary and enjoy the season. Thank you to everyone that contributed to the survey we had posted this past week and we can’t wait to share more about what’s coming next. Now with that said, 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 (PDT). Rally your team and make sure you’re all enrolled before it kicks off. Battle hard for the best rewards and good luck!

Players, we've also got an exciting NEW Chat Update for you! As of today, players can now be @ mentioned in Group and Faction Chats (which will send an in-game notification if the player is online and a mobile push notification if they are offline.) Mobile Notifications will only be sent to players who have installed the mobile app & of course, you also have the option to opt out of notifications if you'd like. Try it out and let us know what you think!

A NEW Prestige Location is here: Tanzania has re-opened and is ready to explore again! Eligible Slayers (who have already completed this Location) can now take on new higher Tier Outbreaks to earn bonus XP, Cash, Skill Points, and Prestige Coins. 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, October 7th - Server 1, Server 2, and the Kongregate & Armor Servers @ 3PM (PDT).

Next week starting on Monday October 6th 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: Reminder to complete your Kano ID Account Upgrade if you see it available on the Home Page (if you don't you're all set already). Read on below for more details on the steps and the bonuses!
