World War Z: Aftermath

Supposedly coming to Steam on September 21, though you can't even preorder the game right now and it shows no price. Looks awesome... and I never played the original due to the game being on Epic so now seems like as good a time as ever.

The Back 4 Blood Beta was.... disappointing to say the least. Hopefully this can fill my zombie itch.

Aftermath will add two new locations to the continuous co-op campaign. First players will be able to fight the horde in Rome, with the eventual goal of liberating Vatican City. The Colosseum and other historical landmarks will feature in the carnage. The second location is Russia’s Kamchatka peninsula, which features snowed over landscapes and a frosted over, abandoned cruise ship.

A first-person mode will be coming to World War Z with Aftermath, allowing players to switch from the original over-the-shoulder perspective. Players will be pulled out of the first person for melee attacks, but otherwise, all the gameplay can be seen through the character’s eyes.

Melee combat will also receive an overhaul with new combos, perks, and unique moves. Players will also gain the option to take on their foes with new dual weapons such as twin sickles or cleavers. Aftermath will also add a new class, the Vanguard, which will charge through hordes with an electrified shield.



A first-person perspective for a game like this is almost a must for me.. which is why I am basically not as hyped for Aliens: Fireteam Elite as I otherwise would be.
