DayZ PS4 1.06 Update Available and Install with Latest Features

Bohemia Interactive has released a new update for the PS4 version of DayZ in the form of the 1.06 patch, which attempts to solve some problems.

DayZ has had its fair share of controversies in the past, and it remains plagued by several problems. The title started as a popular mod for ARMA 2, a military simulation game developed and published by Bohemia Interactive.

The mod allowed players to venture into a fictional post-Soviet state where the population was affected by a strange mutagen that converted most of the population into rabid zombies. Players have to track down vital resources, among which we can count food, water, ammunition, and medicine while also battling zombies, other players, and NPCs in an attempt to survive.

Dean Hall, the creator of the mod, was hired b Bohemia Interactive, and work began on a standalone version of the mod. As a standalone title, DayZ spent five years as an early-access game for Windows before the official release took place in December 2018 for PC. An Xbox One version was released on March 27, 2019. The PS4 version went live in May 2019.

The title retains many of the elements which made the original mod popular, among which we can count the excellent setting, the survival mechanics and a large focus on exploring locations and collecting resources.

Sadly, many players complain that all versions of the game are affected by bugs, which range from minor issues to game-breaking problems. Bohemia Interactive is working hard on updates that seek to tackle many of the complaints expressed by the community, but some voices argue that they should start from scratch.

Patch 1.06 plans to limit the number of crashes that seem to affect some PlayStation 4 players by altering how memory distribution works. The way in which textures are streamed and compressed was also altered to prevent loading problems.
