With that deranged 28 Years Later ending still burned into our consciousness, seeking out good zombie games is at the forefront of our minds right now. Popular culture’s fascination with the undead has given us a constant supply of quality entertainment over the years, which is how we ended up with 250 hours of The Walking Dead. But while the bombast of TV and cinematic apocalypses hits hard, there’s nothing quite like experiencing it for yourself – and there are a host of brilliant PC games that let you do that.
Our list of dead-good hits has everything us zombie enthusiasts could ask for, taking in oppressive wasteland survival, flowing parkour, Lovecraftian eeriness, and even surprisingly colorful home defence. Join us, then, as we wade through the hordes of shambling corpses to find the best zombie games out there. We’re coming to get you, Barbara!
