"Avalanche hosts the re-launch of Undead Blocks, unveiling an updated roadmap"
Wagyu Games has announced the relaunch of Undead Blocks, a popular zombie-themed Web3 shooter, on the Avalanche blockchain. This move marks a significant upgrade for the game, with the backend and token infrastructure now migrated to Avalanche, paving the way for more fluid in-game transactions and expanded feature integration.
The relaunch signifies a new chapter in Undead Blocks' evolution, as it transitions from its initial release on Ethereum and Immutable in 2022. The partnership with Blackhole, a renowned player in the blockchain gaming industry, reinforces this commitment to improvement and community engagement through decentralized infrastructure.
The upcoming updates and features for Undead Blocks on the Avalanche network are extensive. In the third quarter of 2025, players can expect several key developments. The migration of game servers from AWS to Google Cloud is aimed at improving the game's infrastructure. The revamped user interface, particularly the zombie-themed UI, is designed to enhance the player's experience. Enhancements to the Neighborhood map, reintroduction of Gold ZBUX rewards, and reworking of multiplayer modes, including Duos and Squads, are also planned. The long-anticipated mobile version is set to receive renewed development during this period. Additionally, new character skins, weapon additions, and VIP tournaments are scheduled to boost player engagement.
Early 2026 will see the official launch of the mobile version, complete with an integrated in-game store supporting debit and credit card payments. A battle pass system will be introduced to enhance player progression, and mobile-specific game modes like Squads Mobile will follow shortly after the mobile version's launch.
Q2 2026 and beyond will bring increased customization options for character clothing and accessories, the debut of a new map called the Graveyard, and additional NFT drops to support community engagement and ecosystem growth.
