    Good feeling WW2 weapons, and animation on the enemies after they’ve been hit by your weapons feels impactful too.

    But there’s an obscene amount of shooting slow walking zombie enemies which is boring and repetitive as F**K. Shooting 100’s of overly similar brain-dead slow walking enemies - in the same way right from the start over and over again is a huge mistake.

The game don't allow you to use the sniper rifle cuz everytime has a horde of zombies spawning from the ground or from the roofs around you, and you don't find space to use it. The game is totally repetitive, and has a lack of variaty of zombies. Every mission you will suffer from boredom and think: "Oh no, this again?". Thanks god i didn't pay for it… Expand

    For those unfamiliar with the Zombie Army series, it's developed by Rebellion, it is a spin-off of the Sniper Elite franchise. It is an action game in the third person in which we can play Solo or coop. The game is to kill thousands of Zombies.

    Have you ever imagined that the Nazis, including Adolf Hitler, who were killed in World War II would suddenly be resurrected as Zombies? Unthinkable, right? It is up to four heroes (Boris, Jun, Karl and Shola) to bury this whole crowd again.

    It isn't surprising if the game is familiar to anyone coming from Sniper Elite, but in this Zombie Army 4: Dead War we have more action and less Stealth. Bullet kill cameras are present as always. It is always great to stop (and see) two or more zombies with a single bullet from our rifle or watch the zombie skulls explode into a thousand pieces. If the user is tired of this, we can always edit Bullet Kill Cameras.

    We have three game modes present in Zombie Army 4: Dead War - Campaign, Horde and the Weekly Event. Let's start with the first one. In the campaign, we first have to do our loadouts, which include primary weapon, secondary weapon, pistol, melee, perk, item mods and our character. Rifles, Assault Rifles, Shotguns and Subamachine Guns are among the few weapons that are present in the game, apart from pistols. And don't forget that weapons can take upgrades (through upgrade kits), Skins, Charms and Reticles. All characters have their strengths and weaknesses.

    There isn't much to say about the campaign. Surviving, Tower defense, killing zombies to unlock certain areas are the main focus in Zombie Army 4: Dead War. In horde mode we have to survive the waves of Zombies (up to 12 waves or more). The base version of the game has four maps: Into the Darkness, Villa Della Morte, Dead in the Water and The Bitter End. Whether in Campaign mode or Horde mode, we have the possibility to choose the difficulty: Easy, Medium and Hard. On this last level of difficulty: enemies are tougher and take more life, bullets are affected by gravity and wind, and Friendly fire is present. But honestly, I felt almost no difference from Easy to Hard. Don't forget that we can use grenades (Frag, Incendiary, Shock) and mines (normal, incendiary, Shock) during the Campaign, Horde or Weekly Event missions, in order to defeat zombie groups more easily.

    In addition, during Campaign missions, in Horde mode or in the Weekly Event, we can use some traps around the area that can be used in our favor: explosive barrels and electrical networks, for example. But be aware that these things are also deadly for us. And don't think that there are just normal Zombies, we have special Zombies like Suicider (loaded with explosives just for us), big Zombies with heavy weapons (which we can also use them during missions) like Heavy MG and Flamethrower and so on forward. And finally, we have the Weekly Event mode. If you like weekly challenges, this is the right way for you. It is a way with certain rules for us to pass the challenge. For example: Dead Ahead map (Campaign), medium difficulty, no secondary weapon.

    Regarding the online cooperative mode, in the few games I made, I feel that Rebellion's netcode in this Zombie Army 4: Dead War is strange, even with the best connections. Because when I fire a bullet from my Rifle at the enemy, it looks like it takes almost a second to hit the target. Even at close range. It is something that in my opinion does not fit. For those who want offline co-op, Zombie Army 4: Dead War is not for you because it doesn't have offline co-op.

    Unfortunately in visual terms Zombie Army 4: Dead War is nothing special and I think it could have been better worked, even with the quality option (30 FPS). Fortunately, we also have the “Performance” option that guarantees us 60 FPS’s on the PS4 Pro. The soundtrack also goes completely unnoticed. As if that were not enough, Rebellion has to make some adjustments to the subtitles because they are too small. Overall the game itself isn't bad; it's really fun and there's funny things like Bullet kill Cameras and Weekly Events, but little else. The lack of offline co-op and some technical aspects that could be better make Zombie Army 4: Dead War an average game.    … Expand

    The game is very boring. Blunt bombardment of the undead. I'm not very familiar with the series, but if all parts of the series are the same boring, then it's sad.

    I am now playing this new Zombie Army 4 which I was waiting for with great enthusiasm.
    The game is a lot of fun and really too addictive. This title is not a spin off like the Zombie Army Trilogy but a completely new title full of elements that were absent in the ZAT. In fact in Zombie Army 4 we will have to enhance the various weapons as we level up, each character will be able to take advantage of special melee attacks (which will recharge over time), final moves and finally we will be able to choose 5 particular "skills" among the about 30 available (each of which confers offensive, defensive or strategic advantages). To conclude, each character has particular advantages or disadvantages (someone is more resistant to bullets, others to melee attacks etc ...)
    However it must be admitted that this title, although the gunplay is very fun and adrenaline, differs greatly from the Sniper Elite series for a simple and obvious reason: in this title the core of the series has been completely denatured, that is the importance and role of the sniper. In Zombie Army Trilogy "pro players" used only sniper rifles (the primary weapon) because the secondary weapons and pistols were really not very powerful and effective: the "Sniper Rifle Was The Real Protagonist" because the title was precisely a spin off of the Sniper Elite series ! In Zombie Army 4 instead the use of the primary weapon has become almost superfluous because, especially the secondary weapons, they have been so exaggeratedly enhanced that they are the best choice in 90% of the circumstances    … Expand

    1- العبة جيده بشكل عام وقصتها ما تطول وممكن تحس أن فيها تكرار إلى حد ما.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The most awesome thing in Zombie Army 4: Dead War, which couldn’t have hoped for better timing.sometimes when we kill its zombies are also Nazis, you get a super-gross slow-mo kill. (You have gun, some zombies and have fun.)
    A simplified Horde mode exists as well, if you just want to stick to one location and see how many waves you can take on while experimenting with different weapons.
    Exciting sound track that feels like it comes straight out of the 1985 George A. Romero zombie film classic, Day of the Dead – my only complaint about the music being I wish it were mixed louder and piped in more often.
    Other running and gunning the way you shoot zombies encourages you to confront the walking dead in a more nuanced way: Getting a certain number of kills unlocks special abilities, like overpowered sniper shots or hyper-fast shotgun reloading, but you also get a chance to recover health by pulling off up-close kills. Killing a certain number of zombies from a distance to earn the right to run in and recover some health adds a layer of strategic dismemberment to the mindless slaughter.
    The levels don’t look radically different, but they all have interesting layouts that are fun to explore and are creepy and unsettling in their own way.
    The gun upgrade system, however, is initially exciting but can hit a wall.
    On the technical side, I didn’t run into any connection issues, but I did have some general bugs.
    In open area maps the enemies can come from several different directions and you always have to be on the move and aware of your surroundings.
    you can't depend on single weapon too much, and need to utilise each weapon properly.
    the enemies and also designed in variety of different ways but different strength.
    there is a progression system which encourages one to play.
    Don't get me wrong but "The game doesn't look bad but it doesn't look great either. It looks serviceable. The environment are the most detailed. the characteristics are weired plastic quality. animations aren't smoothest .    … Expand

    Recieved the game for free with PS+ and was pleasantly surprised by the game. Very campy and lacking in depth, but I think the developer goal was just to make blowing the limbs off of hordes of zombies with a sniper rifle feel fun and satisfying. In that regard they succeeded. A great casual coop romp.

    Sharp, gritty visuals, clever level design, and a John Carpenter-esque soundtrack all contribute towards creating an oppressive, dank, B-movie vibe that's almost as much fun to plough through solo as it is co-op. Plus, there's a zombie shark in it. If that hasn't piqued your interest you're probably already undead.

    Zombie Killing is always better with friends and Zombie Army 4 doesn’t buck that trend. Don’t buy this if you lack playing partners but if you have some Zombie slaying mates it is a blast.
