What is Gray Zone Warfare?

Gray Zone Warfare is a PvE-first open-world tactical shooter set on Lamang, a quarantined island in Southeast Asia. You deploy as a private military contractor, complete missions, recover equipment, and build your reputation with vendors.

Weapon preparation, ammunition, and medical supplies all matter once you leave base. Go solo or work with a squad, explore towns and military locations, and bring your loot back from each deployment.

Gray Zone Warfare Weapons and Ammo Guide

Get familiar with the arsenal before spending money on your next loadout. Compare weapon options, customization, and ammunition behavior without relying on an arbitrary tier ranking.

Rogue Ops Weapons: The Benelli M4, FAMAS, and G36 join the arsenal in Update 0.5.
Weapon Customization: Customize firearms with parts, mounts, and accessories to suit your preferred setup.
SP and HP Ammo: Soft-point and hollow-point ammunition create larger wounds than FMJ and AP rounds in Update 0.5.

Gray Zone Warfare Medical Guide

Read your injuries and choose the supplies that address them. Rogue Ops changes healing to work by body part, so learn the updated system before relying on an older medical routine.

  1. 1: Open the health panel to identify injured body parts and check treatment information.
  2. 2: Address bleeding and treat the affected body part; healing now applies by body part rather than individual wound.
  3. 3: Check remaining supply volume: blood bags and drinks consume only the amount your character needs.

Gray Zone Warfare Factions and Game Modes

Choose your PMC and decide between PvE and PvEvP before building your character. Coordinate those choices with friends because each character has its own faction and mode.

Factions: Choose Crimson Shield International, Lamang Recovery Initiative, or Mithras Security Systems.
PvE and PvEvP: Play against AI in PvE or face AI and opposing players in PvEvP, with separate progression between modes.
Character Slots: Create up to four characters. Two characters cannot share the same combination of faction and game mode.
