The 2015 Game Developer’s Conference is just a couple of weeks away, but at last year’s GDC one of the upcoming games that really wowed me was World Zombination from developer Proletariat. It’s a strategic tower defense-style game that takes place during the zombie apocalypse. You have the choice of playing as both sides, either the zombies infesting the world trying to take over the world or as the human side trying to fend them off. In a cool twist there’s also elements of massive online multiplayer, including one where it’s simply all the human players taking on all the zombie players in a huge battle. Today we’ve learned that World Zombination is set to launch this Thursday February 19th, and with that here’s a brand new gameplay trailer.
If the trailer and description has piqued your interest, be sure to check out our hands-on video from last year’s GDC for an even more in-depth look at how World Zombination plays out. It was a year ago so I’m sure some things have changed since then, but it gives a lot of the basic details and really gives you an idea of the immense scale of the zombie invasion in the game. Look for World Zombination when it launches in the App Store later this week.
