Detailed Mutator Information

Void Reanimators will spawn 10 seconds after the first killed enemy unit from a random enemy building. Following Void Reanimators will spawn every 55 seconds. If you destroy all enemy buildings on the map, no Void Reanimators will spawn. Note that all-clearing Malwarfare and Void Launch does not stop them from spawning, because Suppression Towers and Launch Bays are indestructible enemy structures.

Void Reanimators have 200 HP and 200 Shields. They do not have an attack. There can only be a maximum of 4 Void Reanimators on the map. They only resurrect dead enemy units. Below is an image of a Void Reanimator:

Void Reanimators will try to revive the closest dead unit to them. They revive dead units at different speeds, depending on their supply cost. This is detailed below:

Supply Cost Reanimation Time (seconds)
0-1 1.5
2-5 4
6+ 8

Only a total of 500 corpses are stored. When the list fills up, the dead unit will replace a random one on the corpse list if the dead unit has a supply cost of 2 or more.

Void Reanimators can be path-blocked, preventing them from reaching their targets for resurrection. For more information, watch this video below:

On Dead of Night, Infested units that are resurrected will not die to sunlight and will have to be killed by the player.

On Miner Evacuation, Void Reanimators will not resurrect any of the Infested units.
