Everything you need to play DayZ, nothing more
One tool to find a server, manage your mods and join your friends.
Smart Play
One click on PLAY: DZGR checks the server, spots missing or outdated mods, downloads only what is needed, verifies everything, then launches DayZ.
Every DayZ server
Infinite list with search, filters (ping, mods, perspective, region…) and search by Workshop mods: find the servers that have all your mods.
Hassle-free mods
Download through the Steam Workshop, atomic background updates, mods linked into the !Workshop folder like the official launcher.
Join your Steam friends
DZGR spots friends who are playing DayZ and lets you join them in one click, mods included. Nothing to install, nothing to type.
Details & statistics
72-hour activity, peak hours, version, interactive map, rules, mod list with each Workshop page.
Discord Rich Presence
Your server, the map and the number of players show on your Discord profile while you play.
Signed updates
Every version is signed and verified before it installs, with automatic rollback if anything goes wrong.
Your privacy respected
No telemetry. DZGR never asks for your Steam password and never bypasses Steam or BattlEye.
10 languages
French, English, Spanish, German, Portuguese (BR), Italian, Japanese, Russian, Ukrainian and Chinese — switchable on the fly.

DZGR prepares your mods, verifies the files and launches the game. Then it tucks itself into the taskbar.

Frequently asked questions
Is DZGR free?
Yes, completely free for players. Only the owners' "Featured" places are paid.
Is it allowed by Steam and BattlEye?
DZGR does not modify the game and bypasses nothing: it downloads the mods with Steam, then launches DayZ normally. It never closes the game for you.
Do I need a Steam account that owns DayZ?
Yes, DayZ and its mods go through Steam. DZGR never stores your password.
My server is not on BattleMetrics, can I add it?
Yes: sign in with Steam on the "My server" page, add your IP and prove it is yours by putting a temporary code in the server name. No RCON password is asked.
How does featuring work?
One weekly price, no commitment. Each time the launcher opens, 5 featured servers are drawn at random from everyone who booked and shown at the top of the list with the SPONSORED label: everyone gets the same visibility. Secure card payment through Stripe.
What data is collected?
No telemetry. See the Privacy page for details (Steam friends, owner portal, anonymous counters of the featured places).
