New Horde Rush Mode
Horde Rush was released 2+ years ago as a limited feature that was unlike anything Epic had previously presented. It’s a wave-based game mode in which a group of gamers attempts to survive as long as it takes.
Horde Rush is a four-round game mode in which the squad must stay alive for that period of time. To make preparations for the waves, you’ll be able to choose your equipment at the beginning of the game and search for chests to have more loot.
- Score multipliers will be available and the more you collect them, the higher your points tally will become. What’s awesome about such is that once you’ve gathered enough of them, you’ll be able to eliminate the monsters in your immediate vicinity!
- In the games, you’ll face a variety of new zombie threats, such as white zombies who could freeze your legs and cause you to slide all over the place. Additionally, red zombies, which are comparable to Minecraft’s creepers in how they can blow up if you approach them too closely or kill them.

- Whenever green zombies are killed, they spread a deadly haze behind, so stay away from them or you’ll rapidly lose HP. Finally, the golden baddies are stronger and more difficult to defeat, warranting team cooperation.
