Arena Breakout: Infinite Drops Zombie Modes Into Its Extraction Shooter in Season 7

Arena Breakout: Infinite, the free-to-play PC extraction shooter from Tencent's Morefun Studios, launched Season 7: Utopia on September 16. The season adds two zombie modes, Infected Zone and Zombie Endless, two top-tier weapons (the A545 and the AK-15SC), seasonal attachments, and a broad combat balance pass. It is a clear break from the game's usual grounded Tarkov-style raids, pushing a PvE horde mode into a title built around player-versus-player loot runs.

  1. Do zombie modes belong in a hardcore extraction shooter, or is this chasing trends?
  2. Is a PvE horde mode the right call to pull in solo players scared of PvP loot loss?
  3. Which is the new meta gun, the A545 or the AK-15SC?
  4. Does Arena Breakout: Infinite still count as an extraction shooter if you can just fight zombies?
