![]() ![]() ![]() Then you’ll start to see zombies with helmets on which require you to be a good shot or knock their headgear off first. Just like any game, the initial cannon-fodder enemies are easy to take out, a single shot to the face or a few to the chest should knock them down. I actually found that sometimes the best way to deal with a horde is to run away and find a safe room to hide in – unless if the room is locked until you’ve killed everyone… ![]() So, you shouldn’t find yourself without bullets or means of defence, but it’s still a rather intense situation. Thankfully, there are a decent number of bottomless ammo crates scattered around the level, usually when a horde attack is about to happen. The zombies within Zombie Army 4 come at you fast and thick, you’ll often find yourself overwhelmed by the sheer number of monstrosities that are coming towards you in hopes of a nibble or two. As your enemies are all the undead, causing this kind of damage may not seem beneficial, but removing their head above the jaw, causing their whole skull to explode, or, once again, blowing off their testicles, is so much fun! Just like in Mortal Kombat, you’ll see the bullet satisfyingly penetrate your foe whilst you see their skeleton – vital organs, bones, or even the testicles will splat, break, or painfully get removed from the impact, all in slow motion. But, the most satisfaction comes from the glorious x-ray camera moments when you fire a deadly shot. However, just because this series would rather have you running around like a headless chicken as you shoot your secondary weapon at anything that moves, without caring who you alert, it still features the infamous x-ray camera when you do decide to use your sniper rifle.įor those who don’t know, the sniping mechanics are second to none, having you adjust your aim to compensate for the wind on harder difficulties and being able to hold your breath to line up the perfect shot. Unlike Sniper Elite, the realistic sniping-focused series, Zombie Army is more akin to Strange Brigade as it’s much more action-orientated and fast-paced. You may have a lot on your mind, with the discoveries you make and ungodly things you witness, but the enemy can only think of one thing – your brain on a platter surrounded by your guts! The creatures within Zombie Army 4 are very diverse and intelligent – sure, there are ones that will run at you and act as cannon fodder, but others are wearing armour, have flamethrowers, use shields and throw grenades, and even resurrect other undead enemies from their second death in order to fight again. As a member of the Survivor Brigade, you’ll be travelling across the world and through a number of very unique and original locations, some in open outdoor locations and some within claustrophobic corridors, as you slaughter the animated undead Nazis.Īlthough this may sound like a generic Zombie game, it really isn’t. So, with the living population of the Earth diminishing as the number of the active undead rose, it’s time to set back out once again and find the source of the monsters and try to figure out a way to put an end to the invasion once and for all. I know we’ve barely stepped foot into February but read on to see why this game is currently one of my GOTY titles which raised the bar on the quality I’m looking for over the next twelve months… I’ve played through as much as I can on my own but once the game is officially out tomorrow, I’ll be joining random people and playing as an open host – basically playing the game as it’s meant to be played. That being said, just like the previous games, and Strange Brigade, this game is best played with other people in either of the modes on offer. Whether you’ve played the original trilogy last generation, on PC, or via the remasters on all systems (including the Nintendo Switch), or this is your introduction to the series, Zombie Army 4: Dead War requires no prior knowledge in order to enjoy. The latest game in the series, Zombie Army 4: Dead War, is finally here, borrowing from not only the aforementioned realistic Sniper Elite 4 but also the fantastical Strange Brigade. Rebellion has provided an answer to this strangely satisfying urge for a while now through their Zombie Army games, games which borrow a lot from their Sniper Elite series but with more of a survival and arcade-like approach. ![]() There are two things in life which people love to shoot the hell out of (in video games), Zombies and the Nazis. ![]()
