The game is based on the 2006 book of the same name rather than the 2013 film starring Brad Pitt. The third-person zombie shooter was made available to players across all platforms last Tuesday, and I got to experience it firsthand on the PC.
It’s not surprising, to say the least, that even though the zombie shooter craze has mostly died down nowadays, there are still some fans waiting for its resurgence, particularly following in the footsteps of those who were deemed to do it in the best way possible: Valve and their Left 4 Dead series.īut Saber Interactive’s newest title, World War Z, is anything but a cheap Left 4 Dead knock-off title.

It was a different time, indeed, where the battle royale genre was just starting out in private Minecraft servers and when the Call of Duty series wasn’t as stale as it is now. There were also quite a few Resident Evil games in between, which found themselves more action-oriented than previous counterparts, possibly with the growing trend of the modern zombie shooter. Then you have all the zombie games on PC that promised a realistic approach to combat and featured an unparalleled focus on actual survival, like DayZ¸ H1Z1, State of Decay, Project Zomboid, and No More Room In Hell, in addition to hundreds of other clones that plagued the Steam store pages. It grew noticeable as an overall trend with 2008’s release of Left 4 Dead, and only grew more popular with the inclusion of the Zombie mode for every release of Call of Duty, starting with the original Black Ops.
There was a brief period in the mid 2000’s up to the early 2010’s where the gaming landscape was absolutely dominated by zombie games.
