About Anomaly Zone
Survive and thrive in a vast post-apocalyptic Zone filled with mutants, anomalies, and rival stalkers as you hunt artifacts, complete missions, and forge your own path through PvP warfare or peaceful exploration. With over 40 square kilometers to explore, multiple playstyles from hunter to engineer, and the freedom to support factions or go solo, you'll shape your own story in this Soviet-inspired wasteland where danger and opportunity lurk around every corner.
This is a story of human strength and true heroes. Three generations after the apocalypse, not only did humankind survive in the man-made hell – it continued to develop. Gradually, the infrastructure restored, wars stopped, people were returning to normal life. However, the crippled nature was barely starting to fight back...
So-called anomalous activity zones started appearing all over the planet, like terrifying scars left by the man-made catastrophes. The vast territories of post-apocalyptic world live their own life, which looks like nothing you have seen before. Bloodthirsty mutated monsters, inexplicable phenomena, mysterious anomalies are but the tip of the iceberg.
One of the Zones was formed in the vicinity of Ukraine, in an area combining the unmistakable atmosphere of Soviet times and the fast pace of modern life. In order to contain the dangers of the Zone, the government decided to fence the perimeter, and introduce quarantine in the area. Local residents found themselves trapped and left to their own devices. However, forbidden fruit is always the most enticing. And this was when the "stalkers" came in. Mystical artifact hunters, former military men, explorers, adventurers, armed gangsters, mafia and just those who love getting away with shooting live targets – they swarmed in like locusts in Egypt to lead mortal combat with monsters and humans alike.
This is a story about YOU.
There is a non-stop battle between stalkers' clans, between aliens and locals. You can support any side or remain a free shooter. You can give a dota tion to your mates as a leader or take every loot to yourself. And if you don't want to lose your life in a proxy war, there is a PvE server and safety zones. You can shape your own story in the Zone.
Who will you become?
- Over 40 square kilometers of lands to explore, from closed science villages and abandoned military facilities, to the forests of Tunguska and snowy deserts of Novaya Zemlya.
- Deadly mutants, anomalies and hundreds of main story quests.
- Huge choice of artifacts, gear and weapons.
- Repair broken things or assemble new gear from scratch.
- Improve dozens of skills and abilities.
- Be a doctor, a scientist, a hunter, a soldier or an engineer. Take part in mass PvP, bring death or salvation to those around you.
This is the Zone. Come to hell and make it your home.

I like this game its very chill and choas i love this game
Developed by NEW STORY GAMES and published by MALSER LLC, Anomaly Zone is a free-to-play online MMORPG that merges open-world survival, shooter mechanics, and role-playing progression into a bleak post-apocalyptic adventure. Set in a future where reckless scientific experiments have torn apart the fabric of reality, the game transports players into a harsh landscape filled with dangerous anomalies, mutated creatures, and abandoned facilities hiding valuable resources. Rather than relying solely on fast-paced combat, it builds its identity around exploration, survival, and the constant tension of venturing into territories where every decision can determine whether players return with riches or lose everything they carry. The setting establishes an immersive atmosphere that captures both the mystery and danger of a world forever changed by catastrophe. The game's expansive map is one of its most appealing features. Covering a vast region inspired by remote wilderness and ruined industrial sites, it offers numerous locations to investigate, from deserted research complexes and military installations to frozen landscapes and dense forests. Exploration feels rewarding because the envi…
the code is just bad, not even in one match its just buggy
Game design looks nice and it feels like it could be a good game, but the game controls make little to no sense, tutorials don't display properly, game glitches and bugs on you, and you don't get money for quests so you can't even buy ammo to progress... I'm sorry but I wish it was better... not recommended to play.
