Good newsDayZfans, there’s a new map inbound that’ll make survival even tougher than it already is! That’s right, the upcoming Frostline DLC adds the Sakhal archipelago, home to a rugged environment where you’ll battle against the cold and attempt to shoot nasty players at the same time. Oh, there are also volcanoes that prove an extra threat, too. And new diseases. Wonderful.

As Sakhal’s a frosty place, you’ll need to manage warmth and hunt animals for food, while also fending off wild animals who want to eatyoufor food. Those volcanic springs? Yeah, it seems like you’ll need to watch yourself when lounging near them, although there’s no details on what those dangers might be yet. I imagine they will involve lava.
