If you love Zombies, Run!, you can be sure you'll have a blast on our 500 mile epic adventure in The Walk, and you'll love hearing about Runner 5's early days at Abel Township in Zombies, Run! 5K Training.

All three apps have been designed, illustrated, and developed by the same talented people at Six to Start, and they've all been written by a team lead by the amazing Naomi Alderman. You'll even hear a lot of familiar voices while playing! And we've recently updated The Walk and ZR5K with a new design and new features.

We can't wait for you to try our whole family of apps. We want to make exercise fun and exciting for everyone, and expanding the Abel Runner's Club is our way of making that happen for even more people.

I'M A SUBSCRIBER, HOW DOES IT WORK?
1. Open up Zombies, Run! on the phone you're subscribed on.

3. Download ZR, ZR5K, or The Walk.

WHAT ABOUT LEGACY STATUS?
Legacy status doesn't currently synchronise via ZombieLink but we may add this in the future. However, if you become a Legacy subscriber to the Abel Runner's Club, that subscription will sync.

NEW ADVENTURES

Storytelling + gameplay = awesome running experience. We think Zombies, Run! has proven that handily, and that’s why, for the first time ever, we’re bringing new adventures to the app. Every month, you’ll see a new story, ranging from epic thrillers and races against time to exciting historical and scientific adventures.

We’re kicking off with Lewis and Clark, a two-part story by Alex Acks where you’ll follow the footsteps of two of the most famous American explorers of all time on their 6000km+ journey across the continent.

Next month, you’ll be hot on the heels of a murderer in Track the Ripper, written by Lulu Kadhim. Are you fast enough to stop the Ripper from cutting a deadly swathe through Victorian London?

And this summer, prepare for an epic five-part sci-fi adventure, Venus Rising, written by Elliott Gresswell and Naomi Alderman (ZR co-creator and Lead Writer). Featuring the ZR cast, this is a run you can’t miss.

The best thing? All of these New Adventures can be played by anyone, no matter how far along you are in Zombies, Run! We’re incredibly excited to be making your walks, jogs, and runs more fun and we can’t wait to hear what you think.

Don’t fear though – our biggest adventure in 2019 will continue in Season 8 of the main Zombies, Run! story, where you’ll be journeying to a mysterious location in the Far Hebrides, a chain of islands north of Scotland. Luckily, you’ll have some of Abel’s finest on your side – and for the first time, we’ll be releasing a map of your travels as you go along!

The first half of Season 8’s 30 missions will release weekly starting now, with the second half coming later this year…

IN-PROGRESS RUN SAVING

There’s nothing worse than discovering your phone has run out of battery during a mission, and losing your hard-earned progress and supplies in Zombies, Run! That’s why, starting with ZR8, if the app quits during a mission for whatever reason – battery running out, closed by mistake, a crash – then we’ll save all of your run log, distance, time, supplies, and progress up to that point.

This is possibly our most-requested feature ever: one that we hope you’ll never need, but one that you’ll be glad to have if you do! Even better, you don’t need to do anything to make this work; when you restart the app, you’ll just see your in-progress run log saved in the usual place.

IMPROVED DESIGN

We’re building on the foundation of our complete redesign in ZR7 by making ZR8 even easier and faster to use, particularly for finding and starting runs. Run settings are now re-organised and easier to find, and we’re making better use of the screen so we can show you more information and options.

There’s also new helpful tips and advice for the thousands of Runner 5s who join us every day, and lots of tweaks and improvements for veteran residents of Abel!

FASTER AND MORE RELIABLE

Behind the scenes, we completely reworked the content management system in the app, which means it’s faster and more reliable.

AND MORE TO COME...

We’ve got a lot more planned this year. Stay tuned, and stay safe out there, Runner 5!

Get ready, Runner 5, because you’re about to see one of the biggest updates to Zombies, Run! since its launch! We’re bringing new stories for beginners and veterans alike, and we’re adding one of our most-requested features ever. Raise the gates!

NEW ADVENTURES

Storytelling + gameplay = awesome running experience. We think Zombies, Run! has proven that handily, and that’s why, for the first time ever, we’re bringing new adventures to the app. Every month, you’ll see a new story, ranging from epic thrillers and races against time to exciting historical and scientific adventures.

We’re kicking off with Lewis and Clark, a two-part story by Alex Acks where you’ll follow the footsteps of two of the most famous American explorers of all time on their 6000km+ journey across the continent.

Next month, you’ll be hot on the heels of a murderer in Track the Ripper, written by Lulu Kadhim. Are you fast enough to stop the Ripper from cutting a deadly swathe through Victorian London?

And this summer, prepare for an epic five-part sci-fi adventure, Venus Rising, written by Elliott Gresswell and Naomi Alderman (ZR co-creator and Lead Writer). Featuring the ZR cast, this is a run you can’t miss.

The best thing? All of these New Adventures can be played by anyone, no matter how far along you are in Zombies, Run! We’re incredibly excited to be making your walks, jogs, and runs more fun and we can’t wait to hear what you think.

Raise the Gates: Season 7 is here, and with it comes our biggest update in years! We've completely redesigned the app to make it faster, easier, and more fun to use. Did you know you could re-listen to story clips from favourite missions? Or that you could choose precisely how many minutes - or kilometres - a mission should take? Now it's easier than ever to run your way.

But that's not all! We've added a whole host of extra stats to your Run Logs, and your map trace now shows how fast you've run – along with the location of those terrifying zombie chases.

Wait, there's more! While you're running, your key stats are clearer than ever, and you can check out your run route with a single tap. Shared run logs look much nicer, and you can choose whether you share a map, photo, or mission banner. Story missions link directly to Codex entries, so you can catch up on the plot with ease.

And there's even more! But you'll need to update the app to find out...

We can't wait for you to try out this update – we think it's our best update yet. And if you enjoy playing the game, please rate and review us on iTunes, it really helps!

BONUS ENTIRELY NON-CANONICAL SONG: The Ballad of Abel Township Runner Five
(aka "our homage to the Hamilton musical")

How does a walker, jogger, glum of boring
Workouts, airdropped in the middle of a
Forgotten spot by Abel Township, by providence
Infested, by zombies
Grow up to be a hero and a Runner?

The fifth-time successor runner without a trainer
Got a lot farther by moving a lot further
By sweating a lot longer
By working with real honour,
By mission end, they placed her in charge of a
Town's protection

And every day while zombies were tearing people’s hearts out
Away across the land, she struggled and kept her guard up
Outside, she was running to keep the town unparted
The sister was ready to run, fight, become a martyr

Then a madman came, and devastation reigned
Our woman saw humanity drip, dripping down the drain
Put laces on her trainers, headset tight to the brain
And she ran without complain, ignoring the pouring rain

Well, the word got around, they said, "This kid is insane, man"
Bringing back supply collections all 'cross the hinterland
“New destination: don't forget the whole kingdom ‘cos
The land is gonna know your name. What's your name, man?"

Abel Township Runner Five
My name is Abel Township Runner Five
And there's a thousand miles I haven't run
But just you wait, just you wait...

Season 5. Runner 5. Version 5. It's a sign of great things!

Season 5 is here! Forget your Jon Snow and your White Walkers. We’ve got Runner Five and the Zombies. Who cares about The Governor when you’ve got The Minister? Does any character in any medium even compare to Sam Yao? While we’re on air, everyone else better step back, because we've got 40 fantastic missions that'll make your runs more exciting than ever before. And naturally, if you're a Pro Member, you get unlimited ad-free access!

And there’s plenty more to enjoy in our 5.0 update. We’ve introduced an all-new Base Builder interface that makes it easier than ever to grow your Abel Township. You now get 100% of your materials and supplies back when you demolish a building. That means you can reorganise your base to your heart's content, with no penalty - which is handy, because we’ll soon be adding a whole range of new buildings to accompany Season 4 and 5 missions!

Last but not least, we’ve improved our VoiceOver accessibility for the base builder, so everyone can get involved, along with other general UI improvements and bug fixes.
