Developer Saber Interactive, in partnership with Focus Home Interactive, has announced that World War Z, the highly anticipated co-op shooter inspired by Paramount Pictures’ 2013 blockbuster film, starring Brad Pitt and Mireille Enos, will launch on April 16, 2019, for PS4, Xbox One and PC via the Epic Games store, which means that it's another game that won't be available on Steam, at least at launch.
To celebrate the announcement of the long-awaited release date,
World War Z is now available to pre-order. According to Focus, "
all pre-orders of World War Z will come with the Lobo Weapon Pack at no extra charge. This special in-game loot drop features golden skins for three weapons, the ARK-103 assault rifle, Keris V10 SMG and 1911 Protector, as well as the ultimate zombie-slaying tool, the Lobo melee weapon, a dual-bladed spade perfect for making mincemeat of the undead."
In this zombie game, you will make tactical use of traps, barriers and the environment to slow down the hordes of the undead, then team up with friends to stay alive by unleashing a storm of firepower from all directions with a variety of heavy-hitting weapons and explosives.
WWZ also allows players to team up with friends or to play solo with AI teammates in order to survive these waves of zombie.
Take closer look at Saber Interactive's take on the
World War Z series in this all-new gameplay trailer:
Powered by Saber’s dynamic Swarm Engine, World War Z unleashes hundreds of fast-moving, bloodthirsty zombies at a time on players in a nail-biting action experience around the world, including New York, Moscow, Jerusalem and more. Play in co-op with up to 3 friends using six distinct classes and an arsenal of deadly weapons, explosives, turrets and traps to demolish the undead menace and survive another day.
Saber Interactive's World War Z launches April 16 on PlayStation 4, Xbox One and Windows PC.
