This might be my favorite game so far this year. Very cool story and graphics. A Lil difficult to get used to but once you do you can't put it down.

Greatest Zombie game, does better than Dead Island more search and customization. Plays like Far Cry when it comes to open world, and exploration

Dead Island Meets FPS Assassins Creed

I had zero expectations about this game, minus the fact tat the developers did Dead Island and that's all I cared about. Essentially the game is Dead Island with crafting and zombies, but with an added scared effect from when night comes along. The the parkour element is a very nice addition as well. All the movements are smooth and no hiccups, unlike AC. One can get scared with survival horror games, but after awhile you get to know the movements and it loses it's scariness, with this the night zombies are random and you can't mimic the movements. It's a great 30 hour game and should be very enjoyable.

It reminds me a lot of Dead Island, only better. It's fun to play solo or with a group of friends. A must have game for next gen console owners.

Great open world experience. You can craft some pretty awesome weapons. I've spent over 20 hours doing story and side quest and still haven't completed the game.

I wouldn't say this game is the best zombie game but it doesn't suck. The controls are a little annoying, like you have to get the little white dot on the right spot to jump or you'll just be jumping for no reason. It gets a little hard when its pitch black and these huge scary zombies are chasing after you. You have to really use your brain on some of the objectives such as getting onto the pole at the train station, it isn't easy as you would think. But overall its okay.

10/10. This game not only meets expectations it exceeds them. The intense zombie fighting makes you feel like you are truly in a zombie apocalypse fighting for your life. The gameplay feels realistic and the night time truly perfects the game. The volatiles growling at you from outside your safehouse during the night are actually terrifying. especially the first time you get caught outside walls during the night. Co-op is awesome and actually makes the game feel like the walking dead. Hope to see more dlc's in the near future!

I have been anticipating this release for some time now and it has not let me down. I love zombie games and this game feeds your hunger for slashing zombies and saving the world(well kind of).
Gameplay is super smooth. It's kind of like a mash up between Dead Island, Assassin's Creed and Far Cry. All in all it is has an awesome plot and plenty of side missions to keep you busy. Watch out if you go out at night since things get very crazy! I would highly recommend this game for anyone looking for a good zombie game.

The best zombie game I ever played. Very similar to dead island, except in this one you can jump around and do parkour. So more fun.

Really fun, compelling open world zombie apocalypse simulator. Story is a bit bland and generic at times, but gameplay is highly compelling and requires thinking on your feet and resourcefulness. Some really inventive mechanics, especially the terrifying unknown of exploring the world at night. Gameplay takes on a completely different style in these situations, turning from a fun zombie bashing action parkour game to a more stealthy action game. Recommended if you want something really fun mechanically and can get past the generic narrative.

Have had this game since launch week and I am really enjoying it. The only complaint I have is getting the online cooperative to work with my friends easily and on the first try, I suspect it's launch-time issues, and expect a patch that aill make it easier to get into the cooperative mode.
Intensity of game: I like that this game sits somewhere between Dead Rising and Outlast. Traversing the city at night is not recommended, but who can resist scoring double points while avoiding being detected!
