World War Z

They require you to purchase the "aftermath" version of the game in order to switch to the "First person perspective". This option is Greyed Out unless you pay them more money. Fuck that.

Been playing this game for 3 years now with 3000+ hrs. All kind of bugs since day 1. Reported the bugs through the unfriendly method but Saber don't give a shit about fixing it. And the bugs still appears even after 3 years. Server connection issue week in week out, DC for no reason suddenly multiple times, ghost zombie, full of hackers which spoil the playing experience, very incompetent support team and they are useless as F. This game is a no no, will waste your money. Been playing with 8 friends and most of them got tired of the stupid bugs and left the game. Now is my turn to delete it. NO MORE BUYING ANY GAME FROM SABER EVEN IF IT IS FREE!!! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!

This game is a fantastic add to the already huge 'zombie killing' genre. Its simple controls and straightforward mechanics make it easy to jump into, while still delivering satisfying combat and tense encounters. Great for groups that want to mow down hordes, the game keeps the action fast, fun, and relentlessly entertaining from start to finish. Give it a shot~

喜歡打僵尸射擊類不太在乎細節的，這個游戲推薦。優勢在於場景設計和多種地圖，以及狂虐尸潮。 PS plus上免費。僵尸的設計也沒有很血腥惡心，玩法操作都很簡單，還有路標指引，不會跑圖和迷失方向。支持手柄和跨平臺。 但我要説説細節： 1.首先它的價格和質量都無法和Left4dead 2相提并論，質量差遠了，價格也離譜，折扣力度不大，steam上分三個版本，原價總共才100多的游戲，60RMB的Aftermath無法獲得完整地圖，鳳凰城以及之後的地圖都沒有，有種説法是Aftermath是大型DLC，但游戲完整性和DLC是不同概念，混淆概念的銷售吃相難看，估計游戲的營銷做的不錯，各個平臺刷好評，評分才能這麽高。同類游戲喋血復仇4，和它比評分過低了，其實二者半斤八兩。 2. 整個游戲的交互差到幾乎爲0，不像這幾年設計的游戲。人物動作的設計僵硬，跑、翻窗又傻瓜又僵硬，流暢度也很差。沒有標識就不能爬不能跳，是爲了怕玩家找不到路所以堵住了所有的路嗎？？哈哈！豐富的場景和地圖都是背景板，除了做任務拿補給沒有什麽交互而言。 2. 3D建模和人物形象上的設計除了符合概念人設以外，沒有一點個性而言。比如這個人物是俄羅斯人就一定是下雪的地圖裏面帶著俄式帽，但這個人物是誰什麽故事你會記得嗎，who care，完全不會在意，同類喋血還是求生之路，不同職業的人物是有個性的，你會一下記起來他是誰誰做什麽的。所以這款游戲即使有幾十個人物選擇，一大半是充數的，沒有幾個設計很好的人物。還有中尸毒的是一抹黑色液體？不知道的還以爲是開啓了血腥過濾！哈！ 3. 游戲的設計邏輯也很差，你如果鳳凰城是DLC就不要在首頁上出現，像一款不完整的游戲，不買就無法點亮，强迫症看著非常不舒服。故事章節的人物選擇邏輯也是，最後都會在開始新章節的時候自動默認選擇到故事人物，這個選人物的功能就顯得十分鷄肋，體驗極差。 4.游戲的社交功能做的也普通，基本的按鍵開麥還是長開麥半天找不到設置的地方，加好友也十分困難 5.游戲環境一般，沒玩多少時間就會碰到，有隊友傷害的情況下，故意射擊隊友的，小孩玩家髒話，站著不動挂機，故意不走任務集合點的等等。 基於以上如果都不在意，就想純射擊解壓，不考慮性價比，在爲數不多的打僵尸游戲裏强烈推薦。

the game is pretty good, huge weapons selections and the class system is pretty solid. The game is very difficult played solo, so you'll definitely need to play with other experienced players, it is extremely buggy at times, but if you're looking for a zombie shooter that deals with a massive hordes of infected then this is your game.

玩过的僵尸数量最多的割草游戏。我还在瞄头，队友已经打十个了。又是一个老手比萌新多的游戏，随机进公开房全是999，两枪秒精英怪。

surprisingly really good despite being a licensed game, i can't think of another zombie shooter that pulls off massive hoards this well. i like the gun variety. the ai teammates are beyond useless, so you will need a group of friends. the dlcs are quite predatory also

The Game is FUN, but for the love of God please Fix the Connection issue, i had Multiple games where i got disconnected Mid and at the end of the mission. MULTIPLE TIMES! and it's annoying. but Good game 8/10 it's a must buy but beware about the connection issues if you are planning to buy the game

I have some pros and cons for this game. PROS: 1. Very similar to left 4 dead, but feels like an upgrade. Just more variety of weapons, maps, and LOTS OF ZOMBIES 2. Killing a massive horde of zombies is highly satisfying, especially with friends 3. Makes you want to play more by gaining levels for your different classes, gold to spend on upgrade your perks and weapons and unlocking new weapons and skins 4. Visuals and graphics are quite impressive. 5. There is something called "mutators" where you can tweak the game to either make it easier or handicap yourself. For example, "melee attacks can restore a portion of your health, but medkits will not spawn throughout the game" or "special zombies have double the health." CONS: 1. Soloing, the bots are kinda whack. Feels like left 4 dead ai is better than WWZ cause L4D bots respond quicker when youre down or needed healing. WWZ bots don't heal, they take longer to revive you when youre down, waste their own equipment (ex. when you try to get through the city stealthy, using silenced weapons, and one of them toss a grenade, which triggers a wave of hordes, which can be annoying in harder difficulties) 2. The game feels too grindy. The process grinding of leveling up different classes and upgrading different weapons can be too repetitive, but really depends on your play style. Some might like it, some may not. I don't mind it, but it can be too time consuming. 3. The Aftermath version is where you can have first-person mode... Kinda wished they added that in the base game earlier since it felt weird to play this game in third person, but better now than never. That is just my personal preference... 4. Last con that I can think of, and THIS is one of worst cons that I experienced in this game that makes want to stop playing.... the technical issues. Me, personally, mostly the crash dump part. I crashed midgame so many times, and I thought it was because my computer can't handle the game. But turns out, this is one of the few common complaints that i discovered online. So apparently I'm not the only one who's suffering from this difficulty. It sucks when you crash midgame, because you lose all your process, especially soloing. You can't go back and continue your process, all that process of leveling up your class and weapons is gone, and the worse part is when you do daily challenges, you can't go back to the certain challenge, cause the different challenges change almost every hour. So those are my pros and cons of the game. Now would I recommend it, personally I had a lot of fun. The game is enjoyable. If you have a decent PC build, yeah I would recommend. But I would also tell you to play at your own risk, since the game feels like a time investment when it comes to grinding. Additionally, my biggest current concerns are the crashes. That one is a turn off for me.

this game is really good i enjoy that you can make every class bend to the way you play the game it takes time to get the hang

I'm a big fan of Left 4 Dead series. And recently i bought Steam Deck. I was worried that it would be terrible to play it on console, but suprisingly and feels great! Totally worth it!

the funny thing is that this game is exactly 11 years yunger than me. it cma out on my bday:).now the real review. this game is so fun with friends, only thing you can hear in vc is sreaming for help XDDDDD

Fun with friends. Definitely recommended when it's on sale. Not so much playing solo, though. The bots AI suck so bad..

The best adaptation of the multiplayer zombie experience and especially so with the cross play function being able to play between any console and Steam. Big Thumbs up not to mention it doesn't seem to struggle too much with matchmaking. A great multiplayer experience.

I don't know what else to say other than: Good zombie game, and even better zombie Ragdolls

i wish this worked on steamdeck like it claims to be, but this is a lie, great game. alittle dead now. but more fun than back 4 blood. scratches the left 4 dead itch.

After getting really bored with L4D2, playing this game somehow felt quite refreshing, despite having similar mechanic.

In short: game is fun af you kill Zs have classes and is literally an stress relief. Works properly in all aspects sure we get disconnected every now and then but in 20 games maybe only once and you can join back in less than 10 seconds. Decent game if you get it cheap

Played around 30 zombie games. This is the best crowd shooter by far. Classes are very thought through and balanced. So many opportunities and story never gets old. Matchmaking works well and fast but you get thrown into same lobbies with same players often which can be annoying when you try to avoid low levels. Overall very underrated game! I wished there were more players!

World War Z delivers fast-paced, thrilling zombie action with intense co-op gameplay that keeps you on your toes. The swarms of undead feel overwhelming but incredibly satisfying to take down with your team. Its diverse classes and upgrade systems add depth, while the dynamic missions keep each playthrough fresh. For fans of high-energy survival shooters, World War Z offers nonstop excitement and teamwork-driven fun.

Great Multiplayer Game, Lots of Class to choose and customize.

I love this game for its simplicity and the fact i can just goof off with my pals

Great game for slaying Zombies solo or co-op. I enjoy speedrunning and most of the levels aren't super long so its fun to see how fast you can run through most of them.

The game will fill the Left 4 Dead void left by Valve. It's fun in short bursts, and the PVP is pretty entertaining if you can ever find a match. 8/10 from me.

Fun, good for groups that want to play co-up together. If you like the Left 4 Dead and Back for Blood games, this is a great option.

Probably one of the best horde shooters ever made. My playtime may seem low, but I played the crap outta WWZ on my ps4 back on release. The gameplay is addicting, the gore is chunky and visceral, the graphics are gorgeous, and the amount of content is refreshing (if you get AFTERMATH). I wouldn't recommend playing in first person, but the third person default has obviously been mastered by the devs and responds amazingly well. There is weight behind each gun, and they are all satisfying to shoot. I wish more games felt as responsive and swift. I am also impressed by the sheer number of zombies that can be on screen on once - easily hundreds if not thousands, especially on XL horde mode. I'm trying to find negatives, but can't see anything that sticks out. Some may be turned off that their are no checkpoints, and if you die the entire mission restarts, but I find that one of the more appealing aspects - it makes your tactics feel more relevant, and highlights the need for perfect strategy to complete a mission. Another turn off for some may be that there exists a couple of locked missions that are behind a paywall, but for what its worth, they're only 10 bucks and offer a good amount of content. Lastly, the soundtrack is pretty mid, but who cares when the sound design is otherwise flawless. Hats off to Saber Interactive. WWZ has brought hours of fun horde massacring for me and my wife with many more to come, so thank you. I rate multiplayer games a tad different from singeplayers; a 10 for a multiplayer being different from a 10 for a singleplayer (I rate singleplayer games more so off emotional impact, story, soundtrack, etc.... whereas multiplayer is mainly gameplay and the overall "fun" scale). As it stands, I'd give WWZ a 10/10 as a multiplayer title- it has perfected the horde shooter mechanic and seldom any other game can compare. Obviously don't buy the game looking for a deep story, but if you're in the market for a gore-soaked, gun blazing apocalyptic shooter for you and the homies (or in my case, my wife), then it's absolutely worth the $40.

This game sucks at integrated graphics, facing a lot of rendering issues. if you are a player who plays on integrated graphics don't purchase this game.

don't look at my Steam hours i've mostly play'd on Epic game sadly but yea World War Z is just a really good game even after 7 years dev keep updating it to try and keep it fresh and give new content which is awesome not a lot of game do that these day i give the game a good 8 out of 10

it is a fun game but games like l4d2 are just better in replay ability wwz is like l4d style and has more bigger hordes but has many short comings first is its weapons its got a lot of options but they spawn randomly some of which hardly spawn and others all the time so its selection is very limited and rng and its customization is purely cosmetic and does not effect the guns level or stats which you need to also level up by using to gain new perks for that gun the equipment is also limited by class one will have fire bottles the other c4 charges and so on its classes does offer some role play options but if you play solo its losses its potential since its team and horde based classes and very rarely on solo focused as for the gameplay its alright but frustrating since if you fail or quit you will have to start from the beginning its missions are short and simple but lacks interactive environments and feels rather dead with hardly any zombies in the area its a more horde defense game than anything else which is good but lacks as well the characters though interesting in design are often forgettable despite the games flaws its still fun especially with friends but gets boring rather quick if the guns had more customization and player choice as well as what weapons they wanna use as well as making classes also more dynamic maybe adding a custom class option where players can make their own by selecting skills form the previous classes and use them together all in all still fun on a scale of 1 to 10 id give it a 6 and will still play it but only every now and again

World War Z, developed by Saber Interactive, offers an adrenaline-fueled cooperative shooter experience that captures the chaotic intensity of battling relentless hordes of zombies. Inspired by the popular book and film, the game puts players in the shoes of four survivors who must work together to survive in various global hotspots overwhelmed by the undead. Its core appeal lies in the sheer scale and swarming nature of the enemies, creating tense and dynamic encounters that test teamwork, strategy, and reflexes. The gameplay combines fast-paced, third-person shooting with class-based mechanics, allowing players to choose roles like the Gunslinger, Medic, or Slasher, each bringing unique skills and weapons to the table. The cooperative focus is essential—solo play is possible but significantly less effective against the overwhelming numbers of zombies that can quickly turn the tide. Levels are designed to encourage tactical positioning, resource management, and coordinated defense, as waves of infected relentlessly attack in visually impressive, sprawling hordes that move and climb realistically, often overwhelming unprepared squads. One of the game’s standout features is its impressive enemy AI and swarm behavior. Unlike typical zombie shooters, World War Z emphasizes mass over individual threat, making each encounter feel like a frantic, large-scale battle rather than isolated firefights. This leads to memorable moments where players must fend off thousands of attackers, using environmental traps, barricades, and clever team synergy to survive. The variety of zombie types—from fast runners to heavily armored brutes—adds strategic layers to combat, requiring constant adaptation. Visually, the game effectively balances gritty realism with cinematic flair. Environments range from devastated cityscapes to eerie subway tunnels, each with atmospheric lighting and detailed design that heighten immersion. The sound design is equally strong, with tense audio cues and visceral weapon effects that enhance the sense of urgency. While the graphics are not groundbreaking, they serve the gameplay well and run smoothly on a variety of hardware. Multiplayer modes, including PvE co-op campaigns and competitive Horde modes, add significant replayability, encouraging teamwork and community engagement. Progression through skill trees and equipment upgrades provides a satisfying sense of growth and customization, though some players may find the loot grind repetitive over time. In conclusion, World War Z stands out as a thrilling co-op shooter that excels in delivering large-scale zombie battles packed with tension and excitement. It’s best enjoyed with friends or other players online, where teamwork and strategy come to the forefront. While it may not reinvent the genre, its polished gameplay, impressive swarm mechanics, and relentless pace make it a highly entertaining and memorable experience for fans of cooperative action and zombie survival. Rating: 8/10

Quite new but the game is great. I wish more DLC are available with long maps and story.

Encountered a game breaking bug in the first 20 minutes. The game stops detecting that you and your squad have made progress to the checkpoint so the next part of the level never triggers. Didn't even make it an entire hour. Refunding.

pros: fun, satisfying gunplay, basically third person left 4 dead, looks nice, zombies are cool, fun (sometimes) objectives cons: one campaign makes you play as the IDF :< and uhhhh... yeah no that's the only con overall: 8/10 OwOs

DO NOT TRUST THE "Very Positive" REVIEWS! To anyone who is interesting in this game: Go download a completed save file and try out under 2 hours so you can have a chance to refund this crap. I wish I could full refund this buggy ass piece of shit. The longer I play, the more I realize how messy, buggy, unpolished the hot garbage game is. Fuck tons of time-wasting progression systems. Enemies are flashing, sliding and teleporting all over the map. Randomly getting hit by unknown damage without anything nearby. Keep getting connection issues while loading, even playing solo. And also, this game has one of the worst menu interfaces I've ever seen.

The game crashes frequently and is at the point where i can't even play a single mission.Until there is an update about the crashes don't buy it.Also i know people that have the same problem as me so it isn't just for me

I only play the cholo and that's it. Pretty much an update to LFD2 but got the inspiration from the film with Brad Pitt. You know the actor who has been in many films such as "Fight Club", "Inglorious Basterds", "Mega Mind", "Seven", and wouldn't you know "World War Z". Get it now you uncultured swine.

This is a great all-out-killing spree for zombies. Really captures the 28 days later kind of zombie hordes and speed. Tons of different weapons and several classes to play with across a few distinct stories. Quite enjoyable the first couple of times through, can get to be boring after you've played the same maps over and over.

best part definitely related to teamwork and how to adjust coordination accordingly in order to achieve the goals.

Kinda like the L4D games but with some rpg-mechanics like leveling up weapons and whatnot. It’s been a minute so I’m a bit fuzzy on some details- but when I found this game again in my library it reminded me how awesome it was. I played solo but would probably be amazing in co-op.

Crash Dump Sending Utility Application has stopped working Providing a description of what you were doing when problem *occured will help us to resolve the issue: "Wat da faq" Thank Dev. / I found the crash issue from EP.2-1 before final mission send the briefcase i guess *Is this mean "occurred" right ?

Games are awesome, sometimes it bugged out lost connectivity to online session even though my wifi is perfectly fine :( Would be better if the bug is fixed.. for the hellraiser class where as MGL extinction skin doesn't show up in game if use MGL perk. Slasher definitely need some love. Like Kill 5 zombies to recover 10-15% hp instead of 5% because 5% per 30 seconds is diabolical work.. and damage per melee is double everytime even though the character is tired state.

🎮 Played for 40+ hours. 💥 If Left 4 Dead had a baby with a Michael Bay movie, it would be World War Z. 🧟 I didn’t know it was possible to kill 100 zombies with a single grenade, but now I do. My journey: Day 1: Got jumped by zombies in Jerusalem, cried. Day 4: Solo'd Moscow with bots who forgot they had guns. Day 10: Full squad, Tokyo map, 2,000 zombies... we screamed, we died, we won. ✅ Pros: Hordes so big, my GPU started praying Class system is 🔥 (Exterminator FTW) Guns feel powerful, perks feel meaningful Can run on potatoes but looks good on toasters ❌ Cons: Bots have 0 IQ. I’ve seen zombies do better squad plays. PvP is okay... if you like rage Repetitive if you don’t have friends (or a therapist) 👊 Final Verdict: This game made me fall in love with zombie slaying all over again. I came for the chaos. I stayed for the satisfaction of dropping a mortar in the middle of a swarm. 🔫 Highly recommend — just bring friends or painkillers. 👍 Recommended?: ✅ Absolutely. 🧟‍♂️ Zombies killed: Lost count. My hard drive has PTSD. 💀 Score: 9/10 (give us a sequel with smarter bots, please)

The game disconnects at all times. I can't even finish a map after 10 tries.

You like zombie horde games? Youll love this game and it's supported by some quality devs

AI is worse than useless. I understand that they aren't supposed to replace actual human players, but these bots combined get under half the kills I get in a mission. Unable to complete missions without other human players. They will try to melee special infected (and if you shoot at them, you WILL hit them, and end up killing your team, so its a lose lose situation).

beside lfd2, the most enjoyable zombie shooting game by far

One of the best Co-op Zombie Games every played. Must try with your friends. 💥💥

yes unless you dont like to be royally fucked by a tank durrrrrrrrr

Closest game to Left 4 Dead as possible.
