Alright, so I was just thinking about zombies the other day. Which is… not something I do often, trust me. But here we are, talking about this new VR game coming out from Saber Interactive. These are the folks behind that World War Z shooter we all got a kick out of back in 2019. Anyway — no, wait — I’m getting to the point. They’ve decided to throw us all into the middle of a zombie swarm via VR. Yeah, headsets and all. August 12th. Mark that down if, like me, you’ve got a thing for post-apocalyptic thrill rides.
So, picture this: an entirely new VR game. Not just some retouched version of what you’ve already played. Nope, this one’s crafted from the ground up — all first-person action, unlike the old third-person stuff. And you’re trekking through New York, Tokyo, and Marseille. Ever been to Marseille? I haven’t, but fighting off zombies there sounds like a blast.
Apparently, you’re up against, what, like 200 zombies at once?! I can barely manage a couple of houseplants. Every bit of gameplay you might remember is reimagined for VR, they say. Seven characters, a pile of weapons, some perks. Oh, and three difficulty levels for when you’re feeling brave or want to play it safe.
The zombies aren’t just mindless folks shuffling around, either. Nah, they’ll adapt. Adjust to how you play. It’s like they’re taking notes on you, which is both cool and a bit unnerving. They’ll even throw in some special infected types to keep you on your toes.
By the way, pre-orders are open. $20 gets you on board early for the Quest 2 or a Steam VR. Fancy a Golden Skin Pack? Pre-order and it’s yours. Not that I ever cared about weapon skins, but maybe you do. August 12th, remember? It’ll be a ride — the virtual kind, anyway.
