Every town and some of the gang hideouts are now overrun by zombies, and it’s your goal to have them all “cleansed” at the same time. If you get near a territory it will appear on your map with the status “Unknown”. If you approach it the status will be “Overrun”.
If you capture a territory for the first time all survivors (amount depends on size of the territory) will be alive. Though after a certain amount of time the territory will be overrun again and the status will change to “Under Attack”. If you won’t help the territory it will become “Overrun” again and survivors will start dying until none of them are left. Fort Mercer, Casa Madrugada and El Presidio are always “safe”.
A territory will take about 30-72 hours (in-game) to become attacked again, so you’ll have to move quick. The best way is travelling by horse as fast-travelling takes a longer in-game time. There are 13 territories in America and 9 in Mexico.

Complete and attain rank 5 in the “Undead Hunter” challenge before finding the Unicorn. Players can find the unicorn around Diez Coronas and Torquemada.
Unlike the other mythical creatures in Undead Nightmare, the you won’t get a warning that there is a mythical creature in the area. From a distance it looks similar to an Hungarian Half-bred but getting up close you will not only notice the Unicorn’s legendary horn on its forehead, but will also see a cloud of butterflies all around it and when it gallops, there’s a distinct rainbow-colored trail.
Undead Hunter challenge 5 requires you to kill it, so that means you have to get to Undead Hunter level 5 before you can kill it. It is a rather small, black hound-like creature which will be marked on your map. 2 shots in the head will kill it.
Possible locations: South of Perdido, South of Sepulcro, Casa Madrugada and Northern Diez Coronaz.
