The new World War Z 1.02 update patch notes have now been made available for the community to read and digest. The new World War Z update today is currently rolling out across PC, PS4, and Xbox One, though you may need to exit the game and hit “Check for update” to have it download and install. Once the new World War Z patch has been implemented, players should start to see improvements in the areas of connectivity, as well as a fix for those who were unable to access the new Lobo Bundle DLC.
World War Z 1.02 Update Patch Notes Highlights
The highlights of the World War Z 1.02 update are mainly to do with solving connectivity problems, and ensuring that players are able to stick together through the course of the game. The 1.02 update fixes an issue which prevented US players from joining up and slaying zombies with users in other regions.
What’s more, for those who were having trouble accessing the new Lobo Bundle DLC, these problems should now have been solved.
Community manager “Jellyfoosh” has also detailed known issues which the team is “working on sorting out right now.” These include PC problems, such as the game crashing on launch, players being unable to see their friends on their friends list, and progress becoming lost.
Also on the dev’s radar are PS4 and Xbox One issues, which include: progress being lost after a PSN name change, the game sometimes disconnecting at the end of some missions, and some players being unable to progress the “Key to the City” mission after the “Protect Search team” objective.
Other “general” issues that have been acknowledged are: some players being unable to receive weapon XP, and some players who can’t get all the weapons from the pre-order Lobo Pack.

Prelude to Greatness | PlayStation 4's 2019 Lineup
The frontrunner for much of the current generation, Sony is having a quieter year in 2019. While preparing for future plans and a possible new console, there's not a whole lot of God of War-tier stuff on the horizon. However, PS4 owners still have plenty of games to look forward to. -
Days Gone
Releasing on April 26, Days Gone is a long in development zombie adventure that has had a mixed reception so far. E3 showings have been underwhelming, but a recent round of previews brought some better thoughts. Here's hoping that this one will surprise gamers when it emerges. -
Death Stranding
As of right now, Hideo Kojima's Death Stranding is set for a 2019 release. While this probably isn't going to be the case, it's still something that PlayStation owners are greatly anticipating. Perhaps they'll anticipate it even more when they know what type of game it is. -
Dreams
Depending on who you are, it's possible you've already been playing Dreams for months. Media Molecules' creation tool will go into a more wide beta this year before patching in single player content in the fall. Considering that we first saw Dreams before the PS4 was out, it's been a long time coming. -
The Last of Us 2
The second chapter in Naughty Dog's post-apocalyptic epic is also on the cards for a 2019 release as of now. We'll see more as the year goes on, but expect at least another trailer in case the game ends up on Sony's next console. -
MediEvil
This remake of the PlayStation 1 classic platformer has been hanging around since 2017, and it could pop up again any day now. Sir Dan was almost one of Sony's mascots back in the day, so only time will tell if gamers respond to him the same way in 2019. -
Crash Team Racing: Nitro Fueled
Moving on to third-party releases, long term PlayStation fans will be eagerly anticipating the return of their kart racer in a remastered state. Crash (and possibly Spyro) will be hopping back into karts for a spruced up grand prix that should retain what people loved about the original CTR. -
Psychonauts 2
Long in development and anticipated for even longer than that, the return of Double Fine's 3D platformer should be cause for celebration among fans. PS4 players, in particular, have already had a taste via the PSVR prequel, Psychonauts in the Rhombus of Ruin -
Rage 2
The surprising sequel to id Software's post-apocalyptic first-person shooter, Rage 2 depicts a very neon pink wasteland that players are eager to jump into. It seems like it won't take too much from the 2010 original, so every PS4 player can jump in fresh. -
Shenmue 3
Debuting on the Sony E3 stage several years ago, Shenmue is currently scheduled to return after a long hiatus in 2019. Will you play a game of lucky hit? How are the sailors involved? Is there gameplay this time? We all have to wait to find out. -
The Outer Worlds
Recently making waves due to its Epic Games Store exclusivity, The Outer Worlds is also hitting PlayStation 4 in 2019. Obsidian's stab at a Fallout-esque game in the vein of New Vegas, we're sure plenty of players are eager to try it out after Fallout 76's less than stellar debut.
