ZombiU (Nintendo Wii U, 2012)

Product Specs

Description

A survival horror game with first-person shooter mechanics, ZombiU places gamers in a plague-ridden London. Acting as the player's survival kit, or "Bug-Out Bag" as Ubisoft calls it, the Wii U GamePad's screen is used to access first aid kits, tools, maps, and more. If a player dies he/she loses the survival kit as the character being controlled turns into a zombie forcing the game player to take control of a new character. In order to recover a survival kit, the user will have to hunt down a previous character and eliminate them. When connected online, a player's friends will be alerted to his/her death and can also attempt to kill his/her friend's former character and loot it. Another multiplayer feature is a survivor versus zombies mode. Using the Wii U GamePad one player can view the level from a top-down perspective where he/she can spawn enemies and set traps. The second player uses a Wii U Pro Controller or Wii Remote plus Nunchuk and tries to survive.
