PREVIEW Into The Dead: Our Darkest Days
It’s not that Zombie Survival is a particularly underserved genre — checking Steam will net you twenty games with ‘zombie’ and ‘survival’ both appearing in the title, with the category of the same name offering options in the hundreds. So, Into the Dead has some competition for the title of ‘most impressive zombie survival game ever’. I would argue, though, that it doesn’t have a lot of competition for that title.
