Leaderboards Guide

Leaderboards in Yet Another Zombie Survivors are not a global infinite clock. They are per arena and difficulty. You pick Isolated City or Bio Lab or another map, then a mode, then you look at other people’s kits. After 0.9, interacting with a score can open that run’s endscreen summary again so you can steal a build instead of guessing from a name. This page is how that board works after 1.0 and the August 2026 hotfixes. Play on 1.0.0c2. Mode rules live on game modes. Infinite as a toy lives on how to play Infinite. Speed options live on accessibility.

Picker and Bio Lab

At launch, Bio Lab could be missing from the leaderboard picker even if you owned the map. Hotfix 1.0.0b made Bio Lab selectable. If the ring never appears on the list, update. It was a bug, not a secret unlock. Each arena still has its own scores. City Infinite does not publish wasteland Infinite.

Boss Rush 1.0 is a minute-ten race then a finale. People post those times too. That is not Endurance. See How to beat Boss Rush.

Speed keys kill the score

1.0.0c added PC Remap Controls binds for Speed up and Slow down. Any speed below 100 percent disables leaderboards for that run. 1.0.0c2 shows a popup when you change speed on PC. Hotkey speed lasts that run only. Permanent speed is Accessibility, 50 to 200 percent. If you are farming a board, leave both at 100. If you are learning, slow the game and accept that the board will not take the time.

Console players should not hunt a keyboard bind that is not on their overlay. Play at the intended speed if you care about the list.

What a good score is not

A 50-minute Infinite clip with five joke items is a sandbox post, not a Default lesson. Endurance times after Elite Bosses start are a different sport. Do not copy a glass-cannon Infinite museum onto Isolated City Hardcore and then write that the genre is unfair. Workhorse kits still start with SWAT and Engineer. Recipes: best squads.

Endscreen summaries exist so you can see weapons and items. They are not a promise the kit works at 100 percent speed on your hands. Training still matters: training.

What actually posts: time versus kills

The board is not one infinite clock. Isolated City Default posts a dawn-style time. Hardcore posts a ten-minute survival. Endurance posts a long-run clock, often with a kill count beside it once Elite Bosses start stacking. Infinite posts how long you mowed after the item cap came off. Boss Rush 1.0 posts the minute-ten race plus whether the area finale died. Hover the row. The endscreen summary is the source of truth: weapons, items, time, kills. Do not assume a top Infinite kill museum is a Hardcore recipe. Do not assume a fast Boss Rush time used the kit you need at minute 25 of Endurance.

Speed hotkeys versus the Accessibility slider

1.0.0c Remap Controls Speed up / Slow down last that run only. The Accessibility slider is permanent, 50 to 200 percent. Either layer below 100 percent disables leaderboards for the run. 1.0.0c2 pops a warning on PC when you change speed so you notice. If you tap Slow down by accident, the popup is the hint. Returning to 100 mid-run does not rehabilitate a disabled score. Console overlays do not expose the PC bind; use the slider. Farming Isolated City Hardcore or a 30:00 Endurance Infinite unlock wants both layers at 100. Learning kite can sit at 70 if you accept the board will ignore you.

Steal the kit, not the Infinite museum

Open someone else’s endscreen. Copy the gun line and the shield. Do not copy five joke items from a 50-minute Infinite museum onto Isolated City Hardcore. Glass Cannon is legal only with Engineer. Workhorse still starts SWAT and Engineer. Bio Lab was missing from the picker at launch; hotfix 1.0.0b made the ring selectable. Update if the list hides Bio Lab. City Infinite still does not publish Bio Lab Infinite. There are no promo codes that inflate a score. Ranger at Survival Level 175 does not post a fake row for you.

If the board looks empty on Bio Lab, you are on an old patch or you filtered the wrong mode. Hover. Update. Then play the exam that matches the list you opened. That is the page, not a second Infinite unlock guide.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers to the most common questions.

Why did my run not post?

On PC, speed below 100 percent disables leaderboards. Hotkey speed is per run. Check Accessibility for a permanent slider.

Where is Bio Lab on the board?

1.0.0b made it selectable. Update if the picker still hides the ring.

Are Infinite and Endurance the same board?

No. Each mode and arena has its own list. Do not mix the toys.

Can I open someone else's endscreen?

Yes after the 0.9 quality pass. Interact with the score to read the summary.

Does time or kills post?

Both can show on the endscreen. Mode decides the sport: dawn time, Hardcore ten minutes, Endurance clock, Infinite mow, Boss Rush finale. Hover the row.

If I slow down then return to 100, does the run post?

No. Any speed below 100 percent during the run disables leaderboards. The 1.0.0c2 popup is the warning.
