ZOMBIE ARMY 4: DEAD WAR

A surprisingly lively undead shooter

There are two versions of the Second World War that exist in fiction: the war-is-hell one, a venue for telling stories about what it means to be forced to kill your fellow man; and the pulpy, boy’s own-adventure version. As WWII-set shooters increasingly gesture towards the former, Zombie Army sits firmly in the latter camp – and camp really is the operative word. You’re not just going to war with Nazi zombies, but undead sharks and zombified Panzers with fleshy innards tucked away under their armor plating. There’s a resurrected Hitler in there somewhere too. It is, in other words, pretty much exactly what you’d expect and hope for in a game titled Zombie Army 4: Dead War.
