Horde Mode Now Available for ‘Zombie Army VR’ [Trailer]
Rebellion has sweetened the deal for Zombie Army VR players with a new free update that adds a Horde Mode to the game. As it sounds, the update adds a new mode to allow players to go at it alone or with a friend against increasingly dangerous waves of the undead across four new gruesome maps.
Available now, the update is accompanied by a new trailer showcases the nail-biting action, precision gunplay and brutal melee that players will experience in the new mode. The update also the new Black Ice and Toxic Hazard weapon skins to the game, along with legendary Deadhunters Marie and Boris.
Set before the events of Zombie Army 4, Zombie Army VR sees you return to the field as one of the Deadhunters, an elite squad that is hunting down zombie war criminals. You will fight your way through undead hordes near the bombed-out city of Nuremberg and help Hermann Wolff, the Deadhunter’s legendary leader, find his scattered family and fight to free Europe from the zombie apocalypse.
VR brings a new level of immersion to the action of the Zombie Army series. Use both hands to aim down the sights of your rifle and line up that perfect shot at range. When things get up close and personal, you can use your gun to bludgeon the undead, or scour the environment for items to use as melee weapons. You will also need to master reloading drills as the undead hordes bear down on you from all sides.
Zombie Army VR is available now on PlayStation VR2, Meta Quest 2 and above, and selective PC headsets via Steam.
Epic’s Fortnite is heading for another crossover, this time with Universal Orlando and Halloween Horror Nights. The title’s annual Fortnitemares Halloween event will be coming to Universal Studios Hollywood and Universal Orlando Resort in a new scare zone, kicking off on August 28.
For those not in the know, Scare zones are themed, open-air areas where guests and actors roam around freely.
This is the first time Fortnite will be featured during the after-hours event, which will run from August 28 until November 1. Tickets and packages are on sale now at the official site.
Per the press release, guests will enter Freaky Fields, a Halloween-inspired living battleground that’s been “overcome with a threatening force.” From there, fans will meet up with the Battle Bus, featuring familiar Fortnitemares characters, including “a few new additions exclusive to Halloween Horror Nights.”
And of course, there will be Fortnitemares merchandise available for fans, including a graphic t-shirt, decal set, and an acrylic collectible piece.
Fortnitemares won’t be the only featured property at this year’s Halloween Horror Nights. Killer Klowns from Outer Space will also be getting its own scare zone. Sinners, Stranger Things, Hellraiser, and Evil Dead Burn will also be part of the event, though they will be relegated to their own specific houses.
And while it’s early yet, gamers can probably expect Fortnitemares to return to Fortnite this October.
