Hostile NPCs will also come with that update, that use the same abilities and equipment as players. They lurk in special zones and attack the unwary. Ammo crafting also comes to Will to Live, and players can use the recipe to cast a bullet, produce the cartridge, and obtain the ammo that they need.

  • very powerful shotgun;
  • three new automatic guns, including Zastava rifle and VSS Vintorez rifle;
  • two new handguns.
