They started with some very cinematic videos, now we get some gameplay. suvivor

Beating a zombie's head with a bat instantly made me think of Highschool of the Dead. When you get back to this game though you see a zombie rpg of sorts. You intereact with survivors, take missions, and get exp. And even more appealing is the open world, a sandbox style zombie game sounds to good to be true. But we have heard stuff like that before *cough*brink*cough*. Splat, bust the zombie open, and now you can strategize, there are different types of zombies such as ones with weapons so you get different options for taking them apart. Stamina will play a role so if you aren'y careful you will be tired to kill the zombies. To use the word realistic when talking about a zombie games sounds like a joke, but in this case it fits. You also have a small heath meter so you can't just charge in soak up damage and get out. Add in vehicles that you can use to run down the undead with and you add another level of gameplay. But if you are in a hurry you can fast travel at save points, and this may be popular with people who don't want to just wander through the game. You even get a character who evolves over time, she will toughen up and become more of a badass. When he shows the cove you see some impressive graphics and a nice water element, to me that helps to get more into the game. They even include weather elements. And add the end he kind of passingly mentions multiplayer and say they will release a video showing it later.

I have to admit this game has me hyped. I am aware it could fall in with other over hyped games, but it just seems to offer so much. If you are a horror fan of any type I would suggest you follow this game close, and for myself it is a buy.
