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.

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!
