I didn’t expect much out of World War Z as a licensed title, but Saber Interactive has done a great job adapting the IP’s globe-spanning scope and massive hordes of zombies while bolstering it with inspiration from a past classic. I’m not sure that I’d recommend it for players who insist on playing alone, but for those who have at least one friend or those who don’t mind recruiting some randos, it’s a great way to kill a million zombies over a weekend.

Reasonably priced but with only glimmers of personality. A fairly standard selection of multiplayer modes are livened up by the horde and generally a lot more fun than a lacking story campaign. [IssueE163, p.60]
It might not too unbearable when you play with your close friends and you guys coop perfectly. But in general, this game is even much more boring than the zombie's daily life.

Boring as hell, poor controls and poor execution. I have played it on PS5, and it wasn't the best experience. I will not recommend.

I’d absolutely suggest giving World War Z a shot, even more so if you were a fan of Left 4 Dead. It really scratches that itch, namely a fun, zombie focused co-op shooter with a solid progression system that’ll keep you hooked for a while. So despite its association with a so-so horror film, World War Z manages to rise above its source material into something that I found to be a lot of fun.

World War Z is a blast to play featuring some great action and some intense encounters that should be experienced by anyone looking for a great co-op game.

Fantastic game, I've been playing since release. Nothing like blasting a bunch of zombies with my headhunter sniper rifle.

World War Z's a competent, fun squad-based shooter that really showcases the swarms very well. There's a swift pacing to the missions which can snag when playing alone. As a multiplayer effort, it finds its footing more confidently. The progression should help keep players involved although I'd love to have more episodes to play through.

If you want something you don’t have to think too deeply about or are into competitive multiplayer with friends, then World War Z could be for you. But if you’re expecting an in-depth narrative and a campaign that requires strategy and coordination, then perhaps you should stay away.

World War Z is a third-person shooter video game developed by Saber Interactive based on the 2006 book of the same name, and set in the same universe as the 2013 film adaptation. The game follows groups of survivors of a zombie apocalypse in the cities of Moscow, New York, Jerusalem, and Tokyo. The plot is not very appealing and the sixteen characters are poorly characterized. The gameplay inspired by Left 4 Dead is fun in the early hours of the game, but it doesn't have much longevity.

World War Z has some moments that are an utter blast – the special zombie types and impending doom of a zombie tower bring pure excitement. However, these moments are few and far between, leaving a shell of game with very little content, a lack of creativity, a near non-existent story, and a disappointingly shallow progression system.

This is such a great game! I enjoyed it so much. It is most fun with couple of friends, co-op multiplayer (private). Literal hours of non stop fun. Recommend for all that love zombies and apocalyptic stories

It's very fun but also features a severe lack of content, even for the $40 price tag. 75/100

Обещали бесплатные допы, косметику только донат. Всё dlc в итоге платные. Зря брал на старте. Помойка как и компания.
