Stories from a World at War

Humanity is on the brink of extinction. From New York, to Moscow, to Jerusalem, the undead apocalypse continues to spread. Countless millions of ravenous zombies without feeling or fear overwhelm and infect the embattled survivors of World War Z.

As the end looms, a hardened few band together and endure. Alone, we are easily overcome. Together, we may yet bring down the horde and press on. For our story—the story of humanity—can only live on if we do.

Moscow

Father Popov and his team must survive the zombie horde to find a secret Kremlin bunker.

New York

A group of survivors atop a Manhattan office building must survive the zombie infested buildings, streets and subways of New York to escape the city while the military attempts to take it back.

Jerusalem

A military squad must rescue a top scientist from the fallen city to activate a weapons system on an abandoned satellite base.

Tokyo

Quick to respond to the global outbreak, Japan decides to evacuate the country. A volunteer search-and-rescue team must battle the hordes to protect the civilian population as they retreat to Tokyo harbor.

The Zombie Swarm

In-game Zombie Hordes behave like real crowds, getting stuck in narrow corridors and climbing on top of each other to reach players on higher levels. Hordes become increasingly more difficult to defeat and behave like single entity bosses as players progress through the game.

The proprietary Swarm Engine by Saber Interactive seamlessly renders hundreds of zombies on-screen in incredible firefights. Advanced gore and dismemberment systems provide a visceral and gruesomely satisfying third-person shooter experience.
