When I am playing this game, I would estimate that about eighty percent of my shots that hit are headshots. This is true whether you are using a sniper rifle, shotgun, SMG or pistol. Headshots are rewarded heavily in this game, both by their stopping power and with your score. While Zombie Army 4: Dead War has moved away from its Sniper Elite roots, one thing it does retain is a focus on accuracy when firing. It’s a little different than most games though. The most obvious way is to shoot enemies. Some of these can be delightfully gory, such as stomping on an undead body to send a splatter of blood out. You are given a variety of ways to deal with these. Aside from regular nazi-uniformed (or otherwise dressed) zombies, there are exploding zombies, a few types of zombies with heavy weaponry and more. This can be done solo or in co-op with up to four players.Īs you go through the levels, whether alone or with other players, you will have to tackle the undead. The basic gameplay concept for campaign mode remains the same through the whole series – make your way through levels, kill zombies, achieve some objectives and restock at a safehouse in between levels. This did get remastered in Zombie Army Trilogy which brought the series to consoles too.
Luckily, I’m all for that.įor those unfamiliar with the series, it started back in 2013 with Sniper Elite: Nazi Zombie Army which was a PC-only title and spin-off of the main Sniper Elite series. And then it throws in undead sharks, just to up the level of absurdity. Despite this, it actually takes itself rather seriously in some ways with some semblance of a story told through the dialogue and cut scenes, a detailed upgrade system, multiple difficulty modes with real differences outside of enemy health and more to do than you might expect. It takes the two most stereotypical shooter enemies, melds them into one and then throws hordes of them against you and even gives some of them miniguns and flamethrowers. Nazi Zombie Army 4: Dead War sounds like it should be a parody game. This is where our story begins, in the fourth installment of this series – Zombie Army 4: Dead War. This should have ended everything, but we find that corpses are still walking the Earth.
The war rages with the land overrun by zombies, until Hitler’s defeat by a group of volunteers. At the penultimate moment of the war against Nazi Germany, with victory near at hand for the allied forces, we learn that Hitler has one more trick up his sleeve – he uses occult techniques to raise the dead.
