The verdict
A satisfying, chaotic Sniper Elite-style zombie shooter with great co-op and X-ray kill cams, but much of the content is paywalled. Skip it at full price or if you'll play solo and want everything.
Great for
Co-op players with friends who want mindless, gory zombie horde shooting, bought on a deep sale
Main risk
Huge DLC paywall locks guns and missions, and the repetitive loop gets stale, especially solo
What players love
Satisfying X-ray kill cams and gunplay
Mentioned in ~1 in 6 positive reviews
