Rise and Survive – Progressive Zombie Apocalypse Add-on 1.21+

Over time, the familiar world stops being safe. The mod Rise and Survive – Progressive Zombie Apocalypse brings the Apocalypse to the game with a gradually increasing difficulty system, where zombies get stronger every few days. They gain armor, weapons, and new abilities, and some lead hordes. You’ll encounter blood moons, disabled sleep, and a constant threat from all sides.
