    Very satisfying shooter. Great bot support. Smooth gameplay, loading time, and framerate too. Love the banter between team members.

    The comparison is unavoidable, as it's clearly a direct reference and shares the same structure, but I'm honestly liking it more than Left 4 Dead.

    Cant understand all that 0 reviews so far. that game is insane! i think the most ppl dont play on very hard and with friends - this degree of difficulty and higher are a pain in the a.. . and u cant play it without a 4 player mate team. its way better and harder than l4d2. the gameplay and hub is stolen from Division 1/2 but its ok.

    Giving it a 10 to counter the Steam trolls review bombing the game. It probably deserves an 8 in my opinion. Great game so far and a blast in coop. Great graphics and truly impressive hordes. It feels like a natural evolution of the Left 4 Dead series with XP and progression. I love how using the guns you like leads to upgrades for those very guns which tailors the game to your playstyle.

    Great wave shooter with progression. Epic Store is priced better than any other platform. I support Epic Store because I am not a sheep being led by hate trends. Guess I'm not cool.

    Super fun co-op mode, great graphics and surprisingly not too intensive on your system given the number of zombies on screen.

    Ignore the idiotic review bombers who dont even own the game.

    Game deserves more than some hateful reviews from a bunch of children or mentally challenged manchildren

    There have been many games trying to revive the Left for Dead franchise and I think this is the closest someone has come.

    It reminds me of Left 4 Dead but with character progression, weapon leveling and adding russian and asian characters, which is always nice

    Great Co-Op zombie shooter it's the closest thing to left 4 dead 2,
    overall i really recommend this game if you are into zombie shooters, the game has online co-op campaign but you can also play the campaign offline, the multiplayer is quite intresting there are alot of different game modes.

Play with your friends on at least 4 stars difficulty for true experience! huge maps, great challenge (on 4 stars), supportive narrative, beautiful characters, deep and useful progression and upgrades system, massive replayability, best gunfire experience ever, millions of zombies

    It's decent game actually, was patiently waiting for something like that since l4d2.

    And EGS sucks.

    Truly an amazing game! The dialogue is hilarious it can be random and on different difficulties provide different speech, memorable characters who have interesting story lines.

Give the developers a chance to finish porting the game over to the Switch and I am sure we will see lots of content being made for the game. No micro transactions which is AWESOME. This game is very polished for release. Buy it, if you don't like it, refund ir. Just don't let the L4D fanboys throw you off with scores of 0 because they don't like that it's not a LEFT 4 DEAD 3. There is absolutely NO WAY this game deserves a 0. Expand

    WoW! Cool game! I got it free from epic store! It's basically a 3rd person clone of l4d2 but it does have it's own original stuff too!
    I love how the zombies scream like in the movie, really makes you feel like a rush is coming!
    It's nice for something new, I played a lot of Left for Dead!
    Thanks epic for this cool freebie hopefully see you guys online so we can coop! :D

    World War Z is a genuine fun and entertaining Left 4 Dead clone that does add a bit of its own stuff to a mix in the old formula. The only issue is that bugs, glitches, and poor connectivity are can be annoying, but hopefully, that will be sorted.

    All in all, World War Z is a pretty fun experience. It’s one that definitely surprised me, as the developers in my opinion didn’t put their best foot forward with the trailers. It still may not appeal to people who weren’t fans of the movie, but if you’re a fan of zombie games, especially co-op experiences like Left 4 Dead, it’s a solid experience at a relatively cheap price for the amount of gameplay and replay value you’re getting. Just make sure you’re playing with friends, as playing with randoms is often as bad as playing with the single player AI.

    World War Z is very competently made and has very few flaws, but it's just nothing we haven't seen plenty of times before.
