To quote the page:
"Sakhal harbors both beauty and danger, offering an experience DayZ fans have never seen before.
"As you explore, hunt, survive, and unfurl the mysteries hidden beneath the frost line. Unite with fellow survivors or forge your path alone; the choice is yours in this perilous winter wonderland.
Preparation is the key to survival, and as the frost sets in, only those with Ice in their veins and Fire in their hearts will endure.."
