ZA-Z is a public Project Zomboid multiplayer server in Johannesburg, South Africa, and vanilla+ at heart: the Build 42 you know, hand-picked Workshop mods (KI5 cars, a flyable Huey, more guns and food) and a set of lore-friendly, balanced additions we build ourselves.
Everything fits the Knox Event and nothing hands you the game: the rare stays rare, the cure hurts, and the safe town has walls because the rest of Knox County doesn't.
Events. The world does not sit still: open days, tip-offs in Rebel News that lead somewhere real, weather that turns on you, and seasonal events like Halloween.
Community-driven. The server is shaped by the people who play on it: plans are talked through on the Discord, and what survivors get up to in the world becomes the stories in Rebel News.
Maintained and cared for. Someone looks after this world and this server every day. Game patches land the same day, mods stay current, the safe town is kept safe, and new additions ship regularly, each with patch notes on the wiki. Latest: the Knox County Court, belt flashlights, three KI5 cars (24 October 2026).
