From the darkest part of the saloon come whispers about reanimated corpses infesting the west and about the deadly sickness they carry with them. Weird West is about to get a whole lot weirder with The Plague, a community event that may pique the interest of zombie-loving gamers. This update seems like a ghoulishly good time!  

In addition to The Plague live event, Wolfeye Studios released a roadmap revealing more, free content coming down the line, including a new feature titled “Nimpossible Mode” and mod support. The developer also promised that the post-launch support for Weird West will eventually “grow to include new story events, encounters, expansions, and Journeys.”  

Alongside this announcement, Wolfeye revealed that 400,000 players have visited the Weird West since the game launched in March, marking a significant milestone for the studio’s debut title.

Weird West is available now for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Xbox Game Pass, and PC via Steam, the Microsoft Store, and the Epic Games Store. For more on Weird West, check out our review where we called it “an incredibly strong debut from a new studio that plays to their strengths as developers.”
