Infestation: The New Z Runs Free Premium and Double Rewards Weekend
A limited three-day event lowers the barrier to Premium features while doubling the cadence of daily reward claims.
Infestation: The New Z is running a weekend event from August 14 to August 17, 2026, offering two concurrent bonuses to all players.
What changed
- Free Premium access — players without an active Premium subscription can use Premium features at no cost for the duration of the event. The full list of benefits is detailed on the game's store page at playnewz.com/store.
- Double Daily Rewards — the daily reward timer is halved from 24 hours to 12 hours, allowing players to claim rewards twice as often as usual.
Event window: August 14, 2026, 1:00 PM CEST through August 17, 2026, 1:00 PM CEST.
The announcement was posted by Silenterror on the game's Steam community hub. No other changes, patches, or additions are mentioned in the source material.
For players on the fence about a Premium subscription, the free access window offers a direct trial before committing — and the accelerated reward schedule means even returning players have a concrete reason to log in across all three days.
