Zombie survival game and third-person shooter #killallzombies is headed to Nintendo Switch early next year, it has been confirmed.
Originally launching on other platforms a few years ago, #killallzombies has you fighting for your life against hordes of - you guessed it - zombies. There are three different modes to choose from - Survival, Vault Defence, and Co-Op - each presenting its own slight twist on proceedings to give players a little variety.
Survival has you trying to simply stay alive for as long as possible, Vault Defence has you defending a base, surrounding it with powerful weapons, and Co-Op lets you team up with a friend to destroy the hordes together. The thing that sets this game apart from the countless zombie-shooter games that came before it, though, is the fact that the arena you play in can dynamically change. There are falling containers, flamethrowers coming up out of the ground, suddenly-forming holes littering the floor, and more - you'll really need to stay on your toes for this one.
FEATURES:
- Hordes of zombies to fight on interactive changing arena
- 3 exciting game modes
- Lots of weapons and types of ammunition
- 100+ Powerful perks, each of which can significantly affect your battle tactics
- Opportunity to put the best result in Online Leaderboards
The game arrives on Switch on 17th Janurary 2019, giving you a great chance to practice your zombie apocalypse skills over the winter.

I'll pass.
....wish we were talking about Left 4 Dead coming to the Switch!
The hashtag is an instant turnoff for me.
Clicked because I read third person. Skipped because it looked top down.
@GrailUK My thoughts exactly. More like an isometric, endless shooter. Nothing even remotely looking like a third person shooter.
#clickbait
@GrailUK Yeah, 3rd person made me think action/adventure. The footage is twin stick shooter on a weird hexagonal grid. Could be fun, but not what I was jazzed about from the title.
Yeah this isn't third-person (ok, technically it is but in terms of game genres it's not) it's a twin-stick.
meh doesn't appeal to me
Looks pretty rough in my opinion. Definitely taking a pass on this one.
Not my cup of tea. More choice is good though I suppose for those that want it.
I would try out this game if it had a demo. Does anyone know who the song in the video is by?
Only third person by technicality. This is isometric, NL.
HARD pass.
Might be good, but I already have Crimsonland and Tesla vs Lovecraft which are great
Anyone actually played this? Better or worse then dead nation? That game was missing an endless mode. It was awesome except for that.
I wish Switch got Dead Nation instead, but sadly that is Housemarque game that is a Sony exclusive.
I feel like Zombie games are like beating a dead horse at this point. I'm not yet at the point of "God! I am so sick of Zombie games!" But they don't catch my interest anymore because I don't see what else can be done with them that hasn't been done.
There was a real time strategy zombie game on PC a few months ago that was pretty cool. I forget the title but I watched people stream it for a while.
Ohh man look at that menu screen. You know this one is going to be a classic.
@ThanosReXXX agree
If it came on Physical I'll get it in eShop I'll pass.
Third person =/= isometric
Only isometric games I can play are RPGs and strategy, so no thank you
It looks more like a technical demo with all the isometric/hexagonal floor
@frogopus I agree!
Could you imagine how cool that game would be in handheld mode playing with 3 other friends locally?
I actually think the Orange Box would do great on the Switch too.
I love this game!! Been playing it for years! Can’t wait to take it on he go!
