The latest update for the zombie shooter World War Z brings new maps for Horde Mode XL, new weapons and perks to the game in addition to a DLC.

What’s in the Holy Terror update?

The most important new features of the update are probably the new map Rome for the Horde XL mode, as well as the two new weapons – the bolt action rifle (primary weapon) and the multi-shot rocket launcher (heavy weapon).
Besides that, each class gets a whopping 9 new perks that bring some nice bonuses.

For those who want some variety and challenge, there are also many new mutators in the challenge horde mode. Among them are random air strikes, zombies that revive themselves or reduced effectiveness of primary weapons.

The update is completed with a new skin DLC and some fixes.
