Zombie Army 4: Dead War looks great in this feature-packed trailer

Zombie Shark… doo, doo, do-doo, do, doo,

With less than three weeks to go until the launch of creepy alt-history shooter Zombie Army 4: Dead War, developer Rebellion has released a new trailer showcasing the ghoulish, violent warfare that awaits fans of this strange series, a spin-off from the Sniper Elite titles.

The jam-packed trailer showcases many elements of Dead War, including characters, locations, an arsenal of explosive weaponry, special abilities and, of course, the rotting hordes of the resurrected Reich. The undead will swarm parties of up to four players in intense, co-op gamplay, forcing them to stand their ground with immense firepower, environmental traps, and powerful, crowd-clearing elemental abilities.

As players grind their way through Dead War’s 100-rank system, they will unlock gear, item modifiers, weapon executions, upgrades, and more. Multiple modes include a full co-op campaign and the obligatory Horde Mode, which promises to test the mettle of even the best players against wave after wave of dangerous enemies.

While essentially a mid-tier release, it might not be wise to sleep on Zombie Army 4: Dead War. It looks great, seems very creative in its monster design, and is stacked to the rafters with interesting locations, enemies, and weapons. Much like World War Z before it, Dead Army could prove to be one of the surprise multiplayer experiences of 2020.

Zombie Army 4: Dead War launches February 4 on PS4, PC and Xbox One.
