World War Z

While similar in many ways to Left4Dead and its spiritual successor, Back4Blood, World War Z differenciates itself by adopting a RPG like gameplay, with different classes - each with their own perks - and dozens of weapons that can be improved and leveled up. Very fun in this regards, even if grindy to do so. Multiplayer supports cross platform, and is still active. Do keep in mind the level based system of the game may cause issues for low leveled people trying multiplayer out - i.e. other higher leveled players leaving. Great graphics, and decent voice acting, sound track and sound effects, and a limited palette of weapon and clothing skin customization is available. There is zero background history, and a paper-thin storyline composed of multiple different mini stories - with little or no direct relationship to each other - each with different characters and set in different places of the world. Could definitely be improved in this regards, though the variety of playable characters is nice. Unfortunately, there is no mod support. A big letdown in comparison with the extremely mod friendly Left4Dead series, and needlessly makes grinding for fully leveled weapons and classes more boring than it should be - there is only so much a few dozen levels and wildcards can do to before the game starts becoming repetitive. Overall, a very fun zombie shooter. Not perfect, but decently priced. 8/10

I would say it is a fun game but a little overpriced because after a while it get boring.

Small indie studio cant fix "joining server" issue. I managed to play only 1 match on lowest difficulty after that I was unable to join any game. DO NOT BUY IT until it is fixed. With this bug you only can play offline with bots

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

Great game, particularly fun in co-op & they’re still adding content, years down the line 😊

Definitely a worth purchase. The game play is fun and engaging, the maps are well designed too. Most importantly the optimizations in this game must be studied, I'm blown away by how the FPS doesn't drop even with hundreds if not thousands of zombies on the screen at the same time. Play with friends, its more fun that way.

Had this game in my sight for 3 years now, didn't buy it at launch in 2019 caused it looked meh. but kept an eye on it regardless. Forward 2025 I will say it's a great game and i actually enjoy it !. Definitely buy it when it's on sale !

I just wasted so many points leveling up a weapon only to find the rewards are crap. I mean imagine grinding and the reward is a kick in the balls? No thanks. Skip the weapon upgrades. I mean whatever game dev thought this was fun is a pyscopath. Screw the progression. I just wanted to kill zombies for fun but I didn't know it came with pro zombie devs! #woke /sarcasm. Well honestly fighting the zombies was fun, it's just the rewards are stupid. I'll give it a thumbs up for killing zombies but a thumbs down for whoever thought the base game was a good progression.

I would recommend as I love this game on Xbox but I play on steamdeck and this game shows as verified but in my deck I can’t even get this game to start!!! Verified needs to be checked better on games

O melhor jogo de zumbi cooperativo que joguei desde Left 4 Dead 2. Está definitivamente entre os meus favoritos de todos os tempos. Se juntar com o tempo de jogo que tinha na EPIC, já era pra eu estar com umas 800h de jogos fácil.

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.

is they game we've wanted since released, finally made into what it should have been all along. now kill zombies like you want to and gave us back that Left 4 Dead feel with massive hordes. Just MWAH

Pretty fun zombie game to play with friends, though I didn't really want to get all the DLC's due to the price and what you get from it. I got the aftermath edition on sale for ~13$ which is pretty good value for what you get. But the other two DLC's are newer, so both would set you back more than those 13$ just for 6 missions, or like 1-2 hours of gameplay. Having just played back 4 blood and gotten 100% achievements, I decided to do it here as well. Though I think of the two, I preferred that game overall. The huge hordes of zombies is definitely different over back 4 blood, pretty cool and very impressive how many AI are active at once with the game running well (especially considering it came out mid 2019), but again overall I just preferred the other game. A lot of the gameplay gravitates around looting for weapons to level, both for achievements and just to improve them for progression / making the game easier. And you can't get more than 1 level per mission, as you max out the XP on a weapon, then you have to buy the next level with money. (of which you make waaay too little of). And then if you want to prestige your class, it costs you 7500 money, and you lose all the money you spent on the perks (this should be refunded) When you complete a mission at difficulty 2/5 (super simple and almost impossible to lose), you only make 300 money at the end. Those missions can be 7-20 minutes long, depending on how fast you are, what mission it is, etc. This means that if you actually want to level all your guns, classes and prestige, etc.. you'd have to be grinding for hundreds and hundreds of hours. Even with the exploit me and my friends honestly spent most of our time on (missile command mission, getting to the elevator and resetting, giving 640 money. I'm really glad dialogue volume is a thing in this game though) So this means that I ended up cheating some of the achievements due to the ridiculous amount of boring grinding. ESPECIALLY the multiplayer achievements. [b] never. do. multiplayer. achievements. [/b] Even in games where people actually get it for the multiplayer, servers will die out at some point, and make them impossible to get. Though unlike the "complete all missions at hardest/second hardest difficulty" achievement in back 4 blood, difficulty 4/5 on the base game maps were actually pretty simple with a prepped crew of 3 people.

Underrated game to kill some time. Kinda grindy but tons of fun. Reminds me of the good old Payday 2, but with zombies instead of cops. Just be careful, sometimes the real zombies are your teammates.

I would consider this an updated and upgraded Left for Dead-like game. Newer weapons, updated graphics, a few new mechanics and a progression system to upgrade weapons and loadouts. I've played on PC, steamdeck, and PS4 and had no issues with graphics or game-breaking bugs. In general, it runs fairly well (at least in my experience). Without spoiling anything, the story is loosely based upon the novel and movie of the same name with some familiar areas. Very fun way to pass time, and there is offline playability for when you are away from wifi/internet access.

I just bought it and i cant connect to wwz server. i already watch on yt how to fix it but still the same... pls help

9/10 - Lots of fun, especially with friends coop. Just needs some more maps.

As a gamer with deep love in Zombie sub genre in horror and love to play cooperative game, World War Z are the answer to a question when there is a successor for Left 4 Dead? Indeed Back 4 Blood is developed by Turtle Rock, who creating Left 4 Dead 1 with guidance from Valve. But B4B is too early to throw its towel into the ring. While World War Z taking its time to establish its fans and gradually adding more content. Also it have a nice progression system despite i found B4B's card system is more flexible. Still WWZ give us the zombie coop shooter with a moment so far not rivalled by another zombie themed game. Its massive swarm of zombies still a spectacle to be experienced.

its "ok" not worth more than $20 AUD for base and aftermath and at that price (which i purchased it for) i recommend it feels a bit janky in the controls they need a jump mechanic (NFI why there isn't one...) they need to get rid of the fkn stamina mechanic (its pointless and feels like ass trying to run then walk, then run, then walk...) other than that its just a worse LFD clone with more content

10/10 would purchase again and play. Need to get DLC, but I seriously recommend it as it's very fun.

Please more updates! WWZ, SnowRunner, and SpaceMarine2 10/10 Saber is the best~

its pretty good but get sort of repeditive after everything

the game is really fun, for those who like to shoot with a brandet this game is very recommended because it doesn't really need a good aim to be able to kill the zombies.

This game has absolutely no right in being as good as it is.

've always wanted this game, and it's finally been given to me. I like its gameplay, the open-world devastation of zombie city. I love the movie based on this game.

Recommended. [h3]The Zombie Horde Shooter makeshift esport:[/h3] __> Has various bugs; __> Many technical problems, including memory leaks and whatnots: __> Crossplay, which is what makes it semi-alive rn: __> Get it on a sale, otherwise stick to your free epic versions.

This game is like Left 4 Dead but with more long term replayability with the leveling system.

SO MANY ZOMBIESSSS!!!!!!!!!!!! I WANT MORE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! special zombies are slighty the same as L4D2 but more violent which makes it fun. I had mixed expectations before buying the game because I enjoy the movie and the book but that changed when I started playing. It's chaos when you play it in difficulty mode so make sure you have friends to play with. highly recommend if you like zombies, explosions and whole lotta chaos

Not exactly bad but Left 4 Dead 2 goes on sale for a dollar and is way more fun and has mod support. Also no Brad Pitt wtf.

one of the most underrated zombie games setting the ground work for space marine II. real fun and seemless with good game optimisation.

Hello guys, I just want to let you know that there is a problem with the game. The game opens but when i start playing , It flickers a lot so i can`t play it properly. Even though I have met the minimum requirements, I have done what I can including the online tutorials of sorts to fix it, but the game still does not work properly I hope the problem is found and fixed soon.

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 ?

Good game. Lots of different modes and ways to defeat hordes of Zombies. There need to be a better way of communicating in the game, especially with cross play (Xbox and PS players). As of right now there is voice comms but they are delayed and echo-ish at times. Console players cant see typed text from PC players, at least i havent gotten a positive response from others playing, that they can see text communications, and the push-to-talk feature doesnt work on any platform, u have to keep the setting to "open mic". Other than that main issue the game is awesome.

open game 1st pick new york saw swarm cool swarm got jump by a boomber cool game :)

World War Z is a dynamic co-op shooter that delivers intense action, a great atmosphere, and thrilling battles against massive zombie hordes. While inspired by the movie of the same name, the game successfully carves its own path, offering exciting missions across global locations like New York, Moscow, Jerusalem, and Tokyo. One of the most impressive features is the swarm system — hundreds of zombies rush at you like a wave, creating constant tension and adrenaline-pumping moments. Teamwork really shines here: coordinated actions and support between players are often the key to survival. With class-based progression, a wide range of weapons, and multiple game modes (including PvE and PvPvE), there’s plenty of replayability and depth. The visuals are solid, and the horde animations are especially well done. However, the game could use better optimization for lower-end PCs. Even on minimum settings, performance can suffer on older hardware, which takes away from the overall experience. Considering how many players still rely on modest setups, improved optimization would be a very welcome update. Overall, World War Z is a great pick for fans of co-op shooters and zombie-themed action. It’s especially fun with friends, and if your system can handle it, it’s a thrilling experience from start to finish.

Game locks basic settings like first person mode behind 10$ pay wall. Also more than half of the campaign is pay walled too. In addition the game only allows you to play 4 player like some gay af L4D jack off till someone revives you no skill toilet game. Refunded less than 1 min into game. "Pigs get some hogs get a homosexual nun"

It was great till I couldn't join my friends anymore cause of network bugs.

I love me a good zombie shooter; level up, get perks, power up weapons, huge selection, shoot more zombies. I think WWZ has got the formula down pretty damn well. I can replay maps over and over but still feels fresh. Can totally play for free, or pay for some cosmetics; no paywalls, you can set the challenge level to your own liking and match with other players to help you out.

in this day and age these clowns are using direct draw ... just eye candy and a general deception, with the added insult , these devs think we are stupid.

Played 1hour Not dramatic with ultra settings ? Boring ? Totally useless ? Refund ! next one please

Game doesn't tell you where hordes will come from so they will just bypass your defences half the time.
