But four people survived the epidemic and seem to be immune to the virus. Together they try to escape the violent infected (as they are called undead) through four campaigns, including urban and rural areas, each containing five maps.

You can choose to be one of four survivors, among which there is the Bill, a war veteran, the Loius, an expert in electronic repairs, Zoey, a teenager from a wealthy family, and Francis, a big guy always willing to help .
But the player can also join the team of zombies, choosing to be an obese Boomer, who vomits in uninfected, blinding them; Hunter, who can climb walls and jump from buildings, the Smoker, who can strangle opponents with his enormous tongue, or Tank, a zombie who can throw cars and concrete blocks on top of humans. Each of the playable characters, both human, as those infected, has strengths and weaknesses that must be explored and compensated by the action team. The game offers unique configurations that help maintain a cooperative gameplay.
