Saber Interactive is set to release World War Z VR this summer, a reimagined version of its popular zombie shooter, specifically designed for virtual reality on the Meta Quest platform and Steam. This new installment aims to elevate the thrilling experience of combat against the undead by immersing players in a first-person perspective, allowing for a more intense gameplay experience.
Unlike the original game, World War Z VR will initially focus solely on a robust single-player campaign, bypassing multiplayer features at launch. Players will confront massive hordes of up to 200 zombies on screen simultaneously, illustrating the game’s commitment to delivering high-stakes action. The environments are reimagined versions of iconic cities, including New York, Tokyo, and Marseille.
Players can choose from seven distinct characters, each equipped with unique weapons and perks. Adjustments to difficulty settings are also available, catering to various skill levels and facilitating personalized gameplay. The game further introduces special challenges, ensuring that players remain engaged as the zombies adapt to the evolving environments.
World War Z VR is scheduled for release on August 12, priced at $19.99. Pre-ordering the game comes with an exclusive bonus: a Golden Skin Pack that includes four gold-skinned weapons. Additionally, Steam users have the option to purchase both the standard and VR versions of the game at a discounted rate through a bundled offer.
This exciting entry into the VR gaming realm promises to deliver the adrenaline-fueled action fans of the series have come to expect, while also introducing fresh elements tailored for virtual reality.
