Zkiller

Zkiller is a first-person survival horror shooter set after a biological virus called z0k0 brings about a zombie apocalypse. You play as a surviving fighter and battle waves of zombies to stay alive. As the waves progress, enemy numbers increase and different zombie types appear; the final wave ends in a boss fight.

The outbreak

In 2020, a country starts World War III by releasing a biological virus around the world. The resulting apocalypse leaves humanity close to extinction. The virus kills people and turns their corpses into zombies, which hunt living things for their flesh and blood.

Fight through waves

You have four weapon slots for melee weapons, handguns, assault rifles, shotguns, light machine guns and grenades. You can find ammunition and health packs around each map, but your carrying weight is limited. Supply pods provide ammunition refills, and explosive barrels at specific map locations can be used against zombies. Zombies and some environmental hazards, including explosions, can damage you.

Killing zombies earns experience and money, with rewards based on headshots, combos and melee kills. You level up when you earn enough experience; levels unlock maps and let you buy weapons, provided you meet the required level and have enough money. Completing quests by shooting zombies also lets you rank up and unlock items. Headshots can trigger a few seconds of slow motion, slowing actions for both you and the zombies so you can aim or choose your next move.

Enemies and maps

The game includes more than 21 enemy types, including adult and teenage zombies and zombie dogs, as well as more than five bosses. Zombies have different abilities and use AI to find you, even when you hide, so headshots are not always the best way to kill them.

You fight across more than five unlockable environments, including an urban city, subway, military base, space station and science-fiction laboratory. The maps contain post-apocalyptic and bloody scenery, along with supplies and explosive barrels.

Weapons and presentation

The armory contains more than 30 weapons, including melee weapons, handguns, assault rifles, shotguns, light machine guns and grenades. The game features detailed environments, high-resolution textures, lighting and post-processing effects, particle effects and shadows. Its audio includes metal and hard rock instrumental music, plus 3D sound effects for weapons and zombies.
