Graduation

Graduation is the first playable map in Project Lazarus.

The map takes place in an unnamed Japanese high school after the initial zombie outbreak.

Overview[]

Graduation contains many relevant rooms that are commonly found in schools, including classrooms, a library, and a nurse's office.

The map is relatively close quarters. Narrow school hallways and tight staircases connect the different rooms.

Graduation has two spawn areas, which are separated by an electric door. This door can only be opened by activating the power switch.

Areas[]

When the game begins, the players will be evenly spawned into one of the two starting areas where they are separated by the electric door. If there are only two players, they will be spawned together instead.

The power switch is located in the power room, along with the Mystery Box.
