- v6.0 - Invocations - 11 June 2026
Finally...For the past seven months, I’ve been balancing university work with the development on this update. Now that university is finally done, I've been able to pour all my focus into finishing this update.

The old foundation just wasn't expandable enough, but these new improvements pave the way for much bigger things. Starting with this update, where I have fully reworked both the Church and Backrooms maps, added a whole new ability system, a new Miracle, 4 new guns, a new zombie type and MUCH MORE!InvocationsInvocations are a brand new active ability, these essentially act as a class/role.You can unlock invocations at Prestige Level 1 for £1000, and you can switch between them freely from the upgrades screen in the main menu.New Mira…
