How To Add New Zombies To GTA Online Survivals With Creator Mode

Aaron TruemanBy Aaron TruemanOctober 2, 2025 Grand Theft Auto
Promotional key art for the Cayo Perico Survival mode in GTA Online, showcasing a horde of themed zombies attacking the player characters on the tropical island. In the foreground, a shirtless, blood-covered zombie lurches toward the camera, flanked by a character in a gold Spanish Conquistador skeleton armor holding a musket, and another character in brightly-colored clothes and a skull mask holding a staff with a horned skull on top. Various other unique zombies and a wild boar are visible in the chaotic, sunlit background.

As part of this year’s Halloween festivities, Rockstar Games have released new zombies to be utilised in creator mode. It is the first Event Week of the annual Halloween event and Rockstar have not disappointed. There’s whole lot going on across Los Santos but we’ll be focusing on the new zombies in this article.

These new zombies for your creations come from the recently released Cayo Perico Survival. The Island Zombies can be picked and used in your own survivals.

There are many creative and talented members of the GTA Online community that bring new jobs to the table. Anyone can create a job. These jobs can now include island zombies but you have to do a few steps to actually get them to appear in the survival creator menu.

The Basics:

  • 1) Select Placement
  • 2) Select Place Trigger
  • 3) Place your Trigger in your preferred area
  • 4) Select Place Lobby Camera
  • 5) Place the Camera
  • 6) Select Play Area Bounds
  • 7) Customize and place your Play Area Bounds to your preference
  • 8) Select Player Spawn Points
  • 9) Place your Player Spawns in your preferred areas
  • 10) Select Enemy Spawn Points
  • 11) Place your Enemy Spawns in your preferred areas

Adding Zombies

  • 1) Select Survival Configuration 
  • 2) Select Wave Configuration 
  • 3) Select Wave 1-10 
  • 4) Select Advanced Configuration 
  • 5) Select Squads Configuration 
  • 6) Select Squad Presets 
  • 7) Select Wave Stage you want to configure (Primary, Secondary, Tertiary) 
  • 8) Set the Squad and Heavy Preset Types to either Island Zombie Shambler and Island Zombie Runner
  • 9) Apply this to all desired Waves

This is similar to last year. Rockstar released a zombie survival which took the GTA Online community by storm. Set in North Yankton’s Ludendorff Cemetery as seen in GTA V’s Story Mode, players fought against waves of the undead. The zombies found in that mode were also released for creator mode.

We look forward to what the community creates with the zombies in survivals now!
