The first dawn starts here.
Season 0 ended September 15. Season 1 is the first official chapter: a fresh B42 run with live leaderboards, active events, evolving balance, and a community writing the server’s first real season.
About Season 1 →B42 stays dangerous
Dense populations, migration, sprinters, and respawns keep supply runs relevant even after your group gets established.
PvE with competition
Your base is protected from griefing, but the season still gives you plenty to chase: survival time, zombie kills, events, and bragging rights.
An evolving season
B42 is changing, and so are we. Mods, balance, events, and backend changes can evolve through the season when the game needs it.
