Undead shooter Projekt Z is looking gloriously gruesome in new Fear Fest trailer

If you’re on the hunt for some World War II, Nazi-zombie shooting action, then you’re going to want to have a look at Projekt Z.

At it again, are we?

It seems like you just can’t keep the Reich away from gruesome, zombie-making experiments. But while some franchises are content to feature the themes as tacked on modes, Projekt Z: Beyond Order is going whole hog with undead goose-steppers.

The game was first revealed by Modus and developer 314 Arts a while back, but is looking better than ever in its new “Fear Fest” trailer. If you don’t know what that is, and we didn’t, it’s an “event celebrating the world of horror while spotlighting the most promising and anticipated upcoming horror games”.

Whatever it might be, if it showcases stuff like Projekt Z, we’re into it. Here’s the latest look at the zombie-blaster in action:

Projekt Z: Beyond Order follows a diverse crew of soldiers, each with their own unique abilities, as they brave a mission to unravel the secrets of an unspeakable Nazi experiment on a lush, remote island. Discover covert schemes related and unrelated to “Projekt Z” – a plan formulated by the Nazis to turn zombies into weapons to shift the war in their favor.

Modus Games press release

More than just a streamlined co-op FPS, Projekt Z is going to be fully featured at launch. Players will be able to build their own hideouts, plus craft and upgrade their weapons, and recruit new allies. And that’s not even getting into the meat of the game, which will see players playing through a complete story-arc for their specific character, plus ding lots of looting and shooting across the mysterious island they’re stranded on.

Projekt Z: Beyond Order is heading to the Xbox Series X|S, PS5, and PC some time soon, but doesn’t have a release date just yet.
