Hunty Zombie just got its first big update, and it’s swinging hard. Version 1.1, named the Greatsword Update, adds a big new sword to the game. This weapon might change how you fight the dead that walk. If you want a fresh way to beat your foes, this large sword could be the shift you need.
But that’s only the start. Rewards have been cranked up across all difficulties — you’re now looking at 4,000 coins on Normal, 10,000 on Hard, and a whopping 18,000 on Nightmare. Pair that with a new friend boost system, which increases your drop chances and cash gains, and suddenly playing with your squad feels more rewarding than ever.
There’s also some welcome fine-tuning. The Katana’s Void Slash got toned down on pulling power but hits harder now, while the Vampire and Healer perks received serious buffs that might just save your run when things get messy. Several zombies have lost frustrating abilities too — no more Boomie grabs and fewer cheap shots from ranged enemies. Personally, I’ve had more than a few runs ruined by that chaos, so seeing these tweaks feels like a win.
And yes, bugs got squashed. Teleport failures, missing weapon slots, and that annoying “School Master” achievement timer — all patched. The devs also fixed a handful of sneaky cheese spots that players had been exploiting.
For those who love a little bonus, don’t forget Hunty Zombie has redeemable codes floating around. It’s worth checking if there are new ones tied to this update.
All in all, v1.1 makes the game look better, more fair, and more fun to play over time. The Greatsword may get most of the talk, but the small tweaks that you don’t see right away are what make this new patch cool for both old and new players.
What do you think about the Greatsword Update? Did the perk buffs or reward changes hit the mark? Let’s talk strategies, codes, and builds down in the comments — I’m curious how you’re adjusting your loadouts.
