Grey Zone Warfare has three different factions to choose from, each defining your gaming experience. Here is an explanation of each faction in the game.
Choosing the right faction in Grey Zone Warfare is crucial because you cannot change it in the middle of the game. Also, if you want to play with friends, you and your friends must belong to the same faction to be able to play in the same squad.
There is a way to change factions, but it will require resetting all your progress. So, here is everything you need to know about each faction in Grey Zone Warfare to make the right decision.
Every Faction in Grey Zone Warfare
At the beginning of the game, you can choose one of three different factions in the game. However, the only difference in the gameplay of each faction is your ability to play with friends, the color of your camouflage, and the starting location.
Otherwise, your weapons, quests, and gameplay progress will remain the same.

How to Change Factions in Grey Zone Warfare?
The ability to change factions was not available when Grey Zone Warfare was launched. Developers added this feature, but it requires you to delete all your progress in the game.
To change factions in Grey Zone Warfare, go to the main screen and find the «Erase Symbol» option in the bottom right corner of the screen. Clicking this button will delete your account, allowing you to create a new account from scratch. Then you can choose a new faction.
