Dead Island

Post-apocalyptic setting

A tropical holiday resort turns into a zombie nightmare: you brutally melee your way across the open island of Banoi with crafted and modded weapons, level up your survivor, and ideally team up with up to three friends in co-op.

Yakuza: Dead Souls

Lots of humour

A Yakuza spin-off where Kamurocho is overrun by a zombie outbreak. Four playable protagonists fight with guns and fists, alongside the series' typical side activities.

Dead Island 2

Lots of humour

Gory first-person melee mayhem across a sun-soaked, zombie-infested Los Angeles, built around a remarkably detailed dismemberment system and crafted weapon mods. Its tone leans toward tongue-in-cheek B-movie satire rather than true horror.

Arizona Sunshine II

Action-packed real-time combat

A VR zombie shooter set in the Arizona desert where you mow down hordes with guns and a machete, accompanied by a dog companion. Gory, action-packed and darkly humorous, with co-op support.

State of Decay: Year-One Survival Edition

Post-apocalyptic setting

An open-world zombie survival game where you lead a community of survivors, scavenge supplies and build up your base. When a character dies they are gone for good, and you carry on with the next one.

Dead Island: Definitive Edition

Action-packed real-time combat

A zombie action game set on a tropical resort island where you fight to survive with improvised melee weapons. Weapon crafting, RPG-style leveling and four-player co-op are its main draws.

Dying Light

Post-apocalyptic setting

First-person parkour zombie survival where you free-run across Harran's rooftops by day, scavenging and crafting brutal weapons, then flee terrifying hunters at night. Fluid movement and gritty melee shine even more in co-op.

The Walking Dead: Saints & Sinners

Post-apocalyptic setting

A grim VR survival game set in flooded New Orleans, where you scavenge ruins, fight zombies in visceral hands-on combat, and make hard moral choices between rival factions.

Dead Trash

Post-apocalyptic setting

A survival action horror game set in a ruined, locked-down city overrun by mindless infected, where you fight with a hammer and firearms. Metadata is sparse, so this rating is conservative.
