Bohemia Interactive is apparently working on a sequel to DayZ, according to a new court document.
An internal Xbox document submitted as evidence as part of the evidentiary hearing between Microsoft and the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) showed the company’s acquisition strategy as of May 2021. On the slide focused on Bohemia Interactive, the document’s additional notes revealed the company was working on DayZ 2.
The document also revealed the developer is working on Arma Reforger and Arma 4, but those games have already been confirmed to be in development, while DayZ 2 has not. Bohemia Interactive did not immediately respond to IGN’s request for comment. Originally starting off as a mod for Arma 2 before becoming an early access game, DayZ officially launched out of early access in 2018 on PC.
DayZ 2, apparently being in development, is one of many revelations coming out of the Microsoft vs. FTC trial occurring right now. The same document mentions how Microsoft seriously considered buying several developers, such as Sega and Bungie, to fill content gaps.
