Prepare for the undead as each year we get a slew of new video game titles with zombies and protagonists looking to survive in a harsh environment. Zombie titles are likely going to flood the market in 2020 but so far we have a few games we can’t wait to get our hands on. We’ll keep this list updated when more video game titles are announced for 2020 so check back for future updates. For now, here are the most anticipated 2020 zombie titles.
Dying Light 2
- Developer: Techland
- Publisher: Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment
- Platforms: PC, PS4, XBO
- Release: 2019
Dying Light 2 will once again set players back into a world filled with zombies. In fact, the game will take place fifteen years into the apocalypse where much of humanity has been cut down to nothing. Only small areas remain for those who wish to seek refuge, but these places are often in control of different factions.
Within the game, players will be sent to one of these safe havens which are in a constant battle between factions that demand control. Outside of exploration and fighting off the zombie threats, players will be dealing with these factions in however they see fit. Unlike the first title, there is more freedom of choice in going about missions.
Players may side with a faction or pin them against each other. Regardless, your decisions will result in consequences to the in-game world and likely narrative outcome.
Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Quarantine
- Developer: Ubisoft
- Publisher: Ubisoft
- Platforms: TBD
- Release: TBD
The Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six franchise has been known for being a tactical shooter that puts players into the role of special operatives that deal with terrorists and regimes. However, it looks like we’re going to get quite a different experience Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Quarantine. We’ve only received a teaser for this game so far and it’s tough to really say just what the game will be like at the current moment. It appears that the title will take place in the future where Earth has been hit by an alien parasite infecting humans. We don’t see the infected but it does sound like we’re dealing with some undead sounding enemies.
We could look back at the timed event that happened during Rainbow Six Siege back in 2018 where players had to deal with infected humans as a slight comparison. This event was known as Operation Chimera and it appears that the development team was inspired by the event to bring out a brand new video game title.
Zombie Army Dead War 4
- Developer: Rebellion Developments
- Publisher: Rebellion Developments
- Platforms: PC, PS4, XBO
- Release: 2020
A new installment to the Zombie Army series is coming out in 2020, known as Zombie Army Dead War 4. During the PC Gaming Show, a conference showcased online at E3 2019, the game was shown off where it was displayed that the enemy this time around is Nazi zombies. There’s a good amount of additions to the game if you’re familiar with the Zombie Army Dead War franchise. Players will receive new perks and weapon upgrades. We only have one video so far for the gameplay footage but the title is expected to launch early 2020 so more information is bound to come out sooner rather than later.
