Last week we dropped the bombshell that zombies would be included in Treyarch’s World War II shooter, World at War. The above video shows the zombies in action. Notice the beautiful shuffle, the moans, and the wondrously creepy glowing eyes. It is almost as if these huggable creatures are hungry for human flesh or something.
As mentioned previously, zombies will only be included in a special cooperative mode earned after completing the entirety of the single player campaign. The goal of the mode is to avoid being pulled apart by the savage hordes of zombies infinitely spawning in waves. Avoidance can happen in two ways. The first is running away and hiding behind a teammate. The other is shooting the aggressor before you become its meal. The latter is probably the better strategy, as you’ll keep friends longer and reap the benefits of a healthy social life.
I’m beginning to think that adding zombies to any game instantly makes it a better product. Imagine if there were zombies in the Xbox 360 version of Two Worlds. Instant classic, right?
