Whoah, so here’s a wild bit I stumbled on while scrolling through my feeds, and honestly, it was just one of those “Wait, what?” moments. Yeah, so Saber Interactive, you know, the crafty folks who brought us that intense shooter thingy, World War Z back in 2019? Well, seems they decided to dive into VR. Or maybe they were bored, who knows.
Alright, picture this: moving your head around and suddenly bam! You’re smack dab in the middle of a zombie swarm. That’s basically what they’re cooking up for Quest and SteamVR headsets by August 12th. Not even kidding.
Anyway, this isn’t just some repurposed version of the old game. Nope! They claim it’s all fresh and ready, built specifically for VR. So, if you thought you could just replay the old stuff, better think again. It’s got that whole “up close and personal” first-person vibe going on, which is a big leap from the usual third-person thing you’d normally get. Did I mention it’s all about chilling across places like New York, Tokyo, and Marseille? Sounds like a weird travel plan, right?
Oh, oh! And get this, you’re gonna be swamped by like, 200 zombies at once. I mean—why? Who asked for THAT many zombies? Seems excessive, but also kinda fun, in a I-don’t-want-to-die kinda way. Plus, there are these seven characters or something, with guns, and perks, and levels of difficulty. It’s like a buffet, just with more screaming and running.
Remember how in the movie and book, these zombies were kinda smart? Yeah, not your average “uuu-uuu” zombies. Like, they adjust to your vibe and strategy or whatever, which is both cool and unsettling.
So, if you’re all hyped about it, you can pre-order it now, but don’t expect a discount, even for early birds. You do get some fancy weapon skins though. Not that it helps when you’re knee-deep in zombie chaos. But hey, at least you’ll look good!
Anyway, I kinda wanna try it. Or maybe I’ll just eat popcorn and watch someone else freak out. Decisions, decisions…
