DEADGRID 3 IS HERE: rebuilt from the ground up. Way better graphics, and we tackled your #1 complaint: overheating and micro-crashes. Blast endless zombie waves, conquer thousands of levels, duel real players in Ranked and team up in Duo co-op. 160 premium 3D skins, 36 guns, 28 real-world arenas. How long can you survive? A WHOLE NEW LOOK All 160 skins are remodelled as premium 3D characters, each with its own signature emote and idle animation. All 36 guns are rebuilt, piece by piece. 11 redesigned islands move and breathe. And every arena is alive: crowds, flags, fireworks, water, traffic. COOL, STABLE, SMOOTH Overheating and micro-crashes were the things you complained about most, so we rebuilt the game natively to fix them. It adapts to your phone to stay cool, holds a silky 60 fps and barely sips battery in the background. Touch scrolling is buttery smooth too. TRY BEFORE YOU BUY Tap a skin in the shop and it drops onto your island to perform its signature emote. Love it? It's yours. THE CLIMB A campaign ladder thousands of levels deep, and no two rungs are alike. Every level rolls its own horde, weather, rule and goal: one-hit-point runs, total blackouts, meteor storms, assassination contracts, armoury drops and boss fights. Clear a stage and fly on to the next city. 28 REAL PLACES ON EARTH Times Square, Shibuya Crossing, the Champs-Élysées, Copacabana, Terreiro do Paço, the Taj Mahal, Chichén Itzá, the Giza Plateau, the Acropolis, the Dubai Fountain, Sydney Opera House, Brandenburg Gate and more. Plus worlds of our own like The Garden, Sporewood, Rustyard and Cindermaw. Every layout placed by hand, never generated. RANKED DUELS: THE ARENA Duel real opponents: last one standing wins. Buy rage zombies and send them hunting your rival, grab a random upgrade every round and fight your way from Bronze to Challenger. DUO CO-OP Team up with a friend or matchmake with a stranger. Shared horde, shared glory. Revive each other, fire off quick chat and see how deep two survivors can go. MORE WAYS TO PLAY Endless survival with permadeath. INFECT, where YOU are the outbreak. FREE FOR ALL, where everyone carries the same gun. TEAM DEATHMATCH, six against six. And tournaments with prizes for the top 400. ARSENAL OF 36 WEAPONS Pistols, SMGs, shotguns, rifles, snipers, launchers, energy weapons, flamethrowers and wilder things. Loot weapon crates mid-run, build your loadout on the fly and collect hundreds of finishes: GOLD, ONYX, SYNTHWAVE, NOSFERATU, VOIDLINE, RAINBOW… 14 KINDS OF UNDEAD Walkers, runners, tanks, boomers, spitters, bladesmen who cut bullets out of the air, wardens with hooked chains, gravekeepers who raise the dead, bat swarms and bosses that shake the ground. Smart pathfinding routes them around your cover. They hunt, they don't just shamble. TURRETS & DEPLOYABLES Three turret types, barriers, claymores, explosive barrels and the legendary clapping monkey. Build choke points, then watch the horde walk into them. PROGRESS THAT LASTS • GAME PASS: 101 tiers of exclusive skins, chests and emotes • SEASONS, MISSIONS and daily streaks that always pay out • SPECS and BONUSES: permanent upgrades for every future run • THE VAULT: chests packed with skins and finishes • YOUR ISLAND: 11 islands to unlock and a weapon rack to show off your guns • 160 SKINS and 32 EMOTES to talk trash in style Already playing? Your DEADGRID 2 progress comes with you. COMPETE WITH THE WORLD Global leaderboards, a top-1000 board, friends with live presence, duo invites and profiles that show off your island and weapon rack. Available in 20 languages. Free to play and never pay-to-win. To keep it that way, a short ad plays once every 10 games. Never in the middle of a fight. Sorry about that, and thanks for playing! Download DEADGRID and see how long you last.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: DEADGRID at none against Vioska's shown. DEADGRID also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and ratings volume (53 vs 1). Vioska's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.8). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. DEADGRID sells 6 one-off in-app purchases and Vioska sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Vioska holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: DEADGRID has 53 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
DEADGRID ships an update every 2 days, Vioska every 3 days. The most recent releases landed on October 12, 2026 and October 8, 2026 respectively.
