World War Z

Saber Interactive just released another new trailer today for World War Z, their upcoming cooperative FPS inspired by the film of the same name, which is inspired by the book of the same name. It's like Left 4 Dead but also with some competitive modes in addition to the four-player co-op experience.

Today's new video shows off some of the gameplay that spans across four episodes, each of which are three chapters long. World War Z is slated to be released on April 16. It will be out for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC via Epic Games Store (affiliate link).

World War Z’s co-op campaign takes place across four episodes, each containing three chapters, set in New York, Jerusalem, Moscow and Tokyo. Before diving into a chapter, you will need to select a class and weapon loadout. Whether supporting the team with ammo and heals, specializing in explosives or unleashing devastating firepower, you’ll find a class suited to any playstyle.

In World War Z, every play session tells its own unique story of survival through the help of the AI director, which constantly adapts to the actions of you and your squad. For example, a stealthy approach is rewarded with far less zombie spawns, allowing you to conserve precious ammunition. When it comes to massive swarm events, struggling squads may also be granted additional defensive equipment, such as an extra auto turret or mortar.

Alongside the narrative-driven campaign, players can also compete against each other in 4v4 across a variety of Players vs. Players vs. Zombies modes. This includes zombified twists on classics such as King of the Hill, Domination and Deathmatch, as well as the all-new Scavenge Raid and Vaccine Hunt modes.
