PREPISKA works in Russia without a VPN. Mod downloads depend on Steam Workshop availability; joining also depends on the game server. DZSA website ↗

Everyday play

Less searching. Easier choosing.

PREPISKA server list: search, maps, player counts and mods
Cannot remember the exact name?
Enter a familiar part of the name or a map. Search tolerates small typos in words; you can paste a full server address.
Tired of scrolling past empty servers?
Servers without players for more than 30 minutes are hidden from the list. Known mirrors are filtered too.
Already found your server?
Save it to favorites. The last 50 launches stay in history, so you can return without searching again.

Another feature

Q/E lean running

Enable it in PREPISKA: the launcher binds gamepad lean actions to Q and E in your DayZ preset, allowing you to keep leaning while sprinting.

Before installing

Are the red launcher and DZSA Launcher the same thing?

Yes, the red DayZ launcher usually means DZSA Launcher. PREPISKA is a separate, independent launcher, not an update or an official version of DZSA.

Do I need to uninstall DZSA before installing PREPISKA?

No. You can keep both launchers. PREPISKA uses Steam Workshop; installed, up-to-date mods do not need to be downloaded again.

Does the launcher include DayZ?

No. You need a purchased, installed copy of DayZ on Steam and Windows 10/11. PREPISKA is free, but does not replace the game.
