The Cursed Game Mode for MORDHAU introduces an engaging twist to the gameplay by recreating the Infection Mode from Chivalry. This mode features two teams: the Living and the Undead. The Undead team begins with an Alpha Undead, and as Living players are defeated, they join the Undead ranks. Players start with minimal equipment, including a Carving Knife and a Bag of Rocks, and can find random gear throughout the map, particularly as they become outnumbered by the Undead. Special enchantments on equipment add an interesting layer to strategy, enhancing gameplay dynamics.

Updated to be compatible with Patch 24, the mode includes custom skeleton models for the Undead team, enhancing the visual experience. To play, servers must subscribe to both the game mode and specific maps designed for it, including several community-created options. Server administrators can customize game settings through the Game.ini file, allowing for tailored match durations and round limits. Overall, this mode offers a thrilling and competitive experience for players looking to challenge themselves in MORDHAU.
