The free-to-play model, combined with pay-to-win mechanics and currency obfuscation, presents significant monetization risks. The game also employs various dopamine manipulation tactics to encourage continuous play and spending. As a competitive online FPS, there's a risk of competitive toxicity and social comparison, though the lack of stranger chat mitigates some social risks. The game features high levels of violence due to its zombie FPS nature.
