Chernarus, buried by the sand
Sandgrave is ZombieCooKie’s main DayZ PvE server: Chernarus transformed into a desert, with quests, new locations and sandstorms. Explore and build together instead of fighting other players.

Sandgrave / Main server
Sandgrave does not simply tint Chernarus brown. New locations, routes, tasks and activities turn the familiar map into a different PvE experience.
Extensive mapping adds new locations across a Chernarus reshaped by the desert.
An extensive quest system, PvE missions and puzzles give exploration a reason.
Travel by road, water or helicopter and let the minimap guide you to your own marker.
Create a base, trade, chase airdrops or take a break at the casino and racetrack.
Incoming sandstorm
“The map is familiar.The journey is not.”
Dust changes the horizon, newly mapped places change the route and every expedition can lead somewhere unexpected.
