Home / Play
Get infected.
Grab the client, make an account and claw your way in. Downloads unlock the moment the server rises.
The grave's still sealed. ZomX hasn't launched yet, so these downloads are placeholders. Join the Discord to hear the second they go live.
Linux, macOS & Windows
Standalone .jar
The way to play on Linux and macOS, or on Windows if you'd rather use your own Java. Needs Java 8 or newer.
Mobile
Android
Still on the slab. We'll announce it on Discord if it ever gets a pulse.
Three steps
From grave to game
No forms, no website accounts. Your name is first come, first served.
-
Dig it up
Run the Windows installer, or open the .jar on any other system. The game downloads its files the first time it starts.
-
Claim a name
Make your account straight from the login screen. Pick fast, because good names go quickly.
-
Rise
Log in, pick your game mode and start gnawing. Read the rules first. We bite.

Questions
Frequently exhumed
Is ZomX free to play?
Yes. Completely free. An optional store will exist to help keep the lights on, and we'll be open about exactly what's in it before launch.
Is this the old server, back?
Not exactly. ZomX is a fresh build made by people who loved the original. The spirit is the same. The code, the economy and the bugs are brand new.
Can I get my old account back?
Old accounts didn't survive the burial. Everyone starts fresh on equal footing, veterans included. You'll just know your way around a little better.
When does it launch?
When it's ready, and not a minute before. Keep an eye on the countdown on the homepage and on the Discord announcements channel.
Windows says it "protected my PC". Is the installer safe?
The installer isn't code-signed yet, so Windows SmartScreen and some antivirus software are wary of it. Click More info, then Run anyway. Only ever download ZomX from this page. We'll publish SHA-256 checksums with every release so you can check your download.
