Dying Light

Dense, handcrafted world

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.

Dead Island 2

Melee combat with weapons or fists

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.

Dying Light 2: Stay Human

Dense, handcrafted world

Parkour across a zombie-infested city where daytime rooftop runs turn into tense nighttime survival against the infected. Brutal melee combat and faction choices that reshape whole districts define the experience.

State of Decay 2

Melee combat with weapons or fists

An open-world zombie survival game where you build and manage a community of survivors, scavenge supplies and upgrade your base. Permanent death for characters gives every decision weight, and you can play solo or in co-op.

Project Zomboid

Sandbox with your own goals

An unforgiving zombie survival sandbox where you loot, build, craft and train skills until your inevitable death. Its deep simulation and highly customisable rules turn every run into a personal survival story, solo or with friends.

7 Days to Die

Sandbox with your own goals

A zombie survival sandbox built on crafting, looting, base building and skill progression, where every seventh night a massive horde tests your fortifications. Played solo or in co-op, it blends first-person shooting with tower-defense tension.

Mad Max

Melee combat with weapons or fists

An open-world action game set in a sun-scorched wasteland where you hunt convoys, raid strongholds and brawl with Batman-style counter combat while endlessly upgrading your car, the Magnum Opus. Vehicular combat and the striking desert atmosphere are the highlights.

Fallout 76

Sandbox with your own goals

An online Fallout set in the irradiated hills of Appalachia, where you explore a huge world solo or with friends, build camps, join public events and shape your character with perk cards. After a rocky launch, NPCs, factions and steady updates turned it into a lively post-apocalyptic sandbox.
