From Saber Interactive, behind the upcoming Evil Dead: The Game, pick from three of your best friends or AI if you have a B.O. as you push back the zombie hordes. And horde isn’t used lightly here as the game will be using Saber’s dynamic Swarm Engine, so expect lots of resistance.

World War Z: Aftermath isn’t just mindless zombie discrimination, as there’s a story too, and players will be able to see the world – including the Vatican City and the Kamchatka peninsula. If you didn’t pay attention in Geography, that’s in Russia.

Key features:

• New Battles from a World at War: Play as both new and returning characters as you take the fight to the undead with a brutal new melee system, decimating zekes with unique moves, perks and dual-wield weapon options like the sickle and cleaver. Fend off new undead monstrosities, including swarms of flesh-hungry rats that will unleash total chaos on your team.
• The Next Generation of Zombie Action: Play in glorious 4K|60 FPS on next-gen systems. Endure endless waves of increasingly difficult zombies in the new Horde Mode XL game mode, exclusive to PC, PlayStation®5 and Xbox Series X|S, featuring hundreds more zombies on screen than ever before possible (Horde Mode XL will arrive in a free post-launch update).
• New First-Person Mode: Experience a heart-pounding new perspective with Aftermath’s immersive first-person mode option.
• Deep Hero Progression: Level up eight unique classes — the Gunslinger, Hellraiser, Slasher, Medic, Fixer, Exterminator, Dronemaster, and all-new Vanguard class — each with their own perks and playstyles. Customize your weapons to survive any challenge, and conquer new daily missions with special modifiers for bonus rewards.
• The Complete World War Z Experience: Aftermath includes all content from World War Z: Game of the Year Edition, including full episodes in New York, Moscow, Marseille and Tokyo.
• Play With Friends Anywhere: Aftermath supports up to four-player co-op with full cross-play between consoles and PC.

Zombies, zombies, zombies:

World War Z: Aftermath will be nibbling on the flesh of the PS4, Xbox One and the PC later this year with backwards compatibility. Dedicated next-gen versions are due in early 2022 for PS5 and Xbox Series X and a free upgrade to those who purchase Aftermath on their respective platform.
