Those looking to pop more zombie heads, Saber Interactive has announced World War Z Aftermath, which is an expansion to the base game (though it will be released separately). What’s important here is, this version of the game will not only feature new story episode, but will also run at crisp 4K resolution at 60fps (frames-per-second) on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S!

In addition to that, the developers state this will allow “hundreds more” zombies on screen compared to before!

Here are some of the details and screenshots straight from Saber Interactive:

New Stories From a World at War

All-new story episodes in Rome, Vatican City, and the Russian far east at Kamchatka. Play as both new and returning characters as you take the fight to the undead with a brutal new melee system, decimating zekes with unique moves, perks and dual-wield weapon options like the sickle and cleaver. Fend off new undead monstrosities, including swarms of flesh-hungry rats that will unleash total chaos on your team.

The Next Generation of the Zombie Swarm

Play in glorious 4K|60 FPS on next-gen systems. Endure endless waves of increasingly difficult zombies in the new Horde Mode XL game mode, exclusive to PC, PlayStation®5 and Xbox Series X|S, featuring hundreds more zombies on screen than ever before possible. Horde Mode XL will arrive in a free post-launch update alongside further next-gen enhancements and support for PS5 and XSX|S console features.

Deep Progression and a New Perspective

Experience a heart-pounding new perspective with Aftermath’s immersive new First-Person Mode option. Customize your weapons to survive any challenge, and conquer new daily missions with special modifiers for bonus rewards.

Released back in 2018, World War Z was a surprise hit (read our review) that reminded people just how much fun teaming up with friends to smash zombies to bits were. If you haven’t picked it up yet, now might be the perfect time when World War Z Aftermath releases sometime in 2021.
