DMZ Season 5 Changes Explained
Below is a breakdown of the main changes outlined by the devs with S5’s overview. It goes deeper into the Konni Group and the four new items coming.
Konni Group
WithSeason 4 Reloaded, the devs teased new threats making themselves known across DMZ’s exclusion zones. We now know that was referencing the Konni Group. Not a lot is known about the new group, but they’ve taken hold ofBuilding 21and cleared the Cartel out of theKoschei Complex.
The initial messaging for Season 5 stated: “Konni found [Building 21], completely gutted it, and found some additional hidden tunnels under the city. We have also lost Building 21 to the Konni Group. With your help, we can get it back.”
As a result of the conflict and the emergence of the Konni Group, the Shadow Company are now friendly to Operators. Those deploying are encouraged to “fight arm-in-arm” and warned that “friendly fire will not be tolerated.”
