Evaluation

Codename CURE II launched on July 24, 2026 as a free-to-play cooperative first-person shooter, and Raptor Byte has maintained a rapid pace of content delivery since day one. On July 26, 2026, the developer published a short-term roadmap explicitly stating "This is not the final state of the game, at all. This is just day one," and listing multiple content goals for the remainder of 2026. Subsequent major updates have steadily fulfilled those goals: six new weapons, weapon skins, and a weapon stats system shipped on August 11, 2026, followed by the full Survival gamemode with two procedurally generated maps on September 4, 2026. Feature patches on September 9 and September 20, 2026 added further refinements, and bug-fix patches continued through September 25, 2026. Most significantly, on October 3, 2026 — the day before this assessment — the developer announced a major update scheduled for October 27, 2026. That update will bring the paid "Metropolis Pack" expansion DLC (a new Midwest-inspired urban region with two missions, a new uniform, and police-themed weapon skins for every gun in the game), alongside free additions including a customization menu overhaul, per-map zombie appearance variations, new types of infected enemies, and performance improvements. The developer also teased that "more information will be coming soon" about the new infected types, suggesting content planning extends beyond the October 27 release.

About this game

“Stand to attention soldiers! We are looking a harsh new reality right down the barrel - the world is a post apocalyptic nightmare, all that’s left of humanity is pockets of survivors and organised military bases like ourselves. We prepared for this situation, the necessary equipment and resources were stockpiled long ago, knowing it was only a matter of 'when' and not 'if'. But we have a plan, an ambitious plan to wipe this zombie scourge from the face of the planet.

The enemy are no longer human, they are no longer your parents, siblings or friends, they are an organism of pure evil that seeks only to spread, mutate and destroy - its foul stench must be eliminated at any cost! We are looking for five volunteers to execute this plan - five soldiers to step up for what is almost certainly a suicide mission; which of you have the bravery and skills to get out there and meet this challenge face to ugly rotting face?" 

- General Johnson, CURE HQ.
