Dead Zone

Dead Zone
Revive

The revival of The Last Stand: Dead Zone. A dead survival MMO, rebuilt from scratch by the community.

Server rebuilt Community revival Beta launches TOMORROW
The project

Bringing a world
back from the dead

The Last Stand: Dead Zone was a cult multiplayer Flash game. Shut down, unplayable, its servers killed. We rebuilt everything: the game server, the website, payments, asset delivery and the client. Today it plays again.
