 Things have not gone very well for The Day Before, the once-second-most-wishlisted game on Steam. After two years of weird delays and a near-complete dearth of gameplay footage, the whole thing was muscled off Steam (and the rest of the internet) by a copyright dispute with the maker of a calendar app called TheDayBefore. Developer Fntastic vowed that a triumphant return was in the offing, and despite a certain air of sketchiness to the whole thing, it looks like it might actually happen—under a different name.

The Day Before, Fntastic’s zombie survival MMORPG, was pulled from Steam due to trademark issues surrounding its title. Now, after several months away from the platform, it appears that the developer is prepared to rename the game and has filed a trademark application for a new title.

The Walking Dead: Betrayal is a third-person survival-and-murder sim in which a group of eight people must work together to survive a zombie outbreak somewhere in rural Canada. It sounds, and looks, a lot like the outstanding 2019 survival-deception game Project Winter—which makes sense, it's being developed by the same studio—but with one intriguing twist: Roaming hordes of zombies means there's not always time to think about your next move.

Bad news, everyone! A zombie outbreak has destroyed civilization, and now the few humans who remain have to avoid the roaming hordes of zeeks who have gnawed their way to the top of the food chain. All is not lost though, as you can join up to three friends as you try to reclaim a slice of the world for the living.

Name a more iconic duo than The Walking Dead and choice-based video games. AMC and publisher GameMill Entertainment know there’s no better answer to that prompt, so they’re teaming up for a new choose-your-own-adventure-style action game based on The Walking Dead TV series that sounds intriguing.

We've all wondered whether we'd survive a zombie apocalypse before, whether that's halfway through a The Walking Dead binge-watch or during our latest The Last of Us play-through. But a newly released Netflix show puts its contestants to the test as they experience a zombie apocalypse for real (well, as real as can be without the actual undead). 

Mid-August used to be a time when we were exclusively looking ahead to fall premieres. But, with the advent of streaming TV and the constant churn of new shows, August is no longer a dead zone — just ask this week’s premieres.

An upcoming base-building RTS has an interesting twist: It's zombie survival, but you can use map data imported from the real world. Infection Free Zone will let you establish and lead your titular zone in an area of your choosing. Like your hometown, for example.

Tencent, one of the world’s largest gaming companies, is set to gobble up Techland, the Polish game developer known for open-world zombie games like Dying Light, adding yet another member to its sprawling investment portfolio.

The first has been released, previewing the multiplayer action game from Other Ocean Interactive.

No director has done more to define a genre than George A. Romero with zombie flicks. Without the groundbreaking, lo-fi chills of Night of the Living Dead or the high-octane, satirical thrills of Dawn of the Dead, zombie fans wouldn’t have the likes of The Walking Dead,Army of the Dead, or the seemingly endless horde of zombie thrillers to choose from. But in 1985, Romero’s true opus was rejected by critics and audiences alike. That movie was Day of the Dead, a grim post-apocalyptic parable whose politically charged subject matter and focus on ensemble drama may have alienated the escapist-seeking audiences of the ’80s, but makes it a perfect zombie tale in the age of elevated horror.

The team behind the snowbound survival-and-murder game Project Winter is turning its talents to the zombie apocalypse in The Walking Dead: Betrayal, a new game in which players must work together to complete objectives, avoid the undead, and ferret out the «traitors» who for some reason are trying to get everyone killed.
