Is Zombie Vikings worth it for you?
We tell you who should skip it, too.
Play it if you…
Good fit- Fans of cooperative brawlers who want a story campaign for up to four players
- Players who enjoy comic Norse settings with unusual enemies and weapons
- Solo or group players looking for both campaign levels and Versus Arenas
Skip it if you…
Saves you a refund- Players seeking a serious or realistic adventure may find the comedy-focused presentation too broad
- Those wanting open-ended exploration may find the level-based structure limited
- Players seeking only a solo experience may not use much of the multiplayer focus
- People looking for a game without unlockable equipment may not want its weapon and Rune systems
Our take on Zombie Vikings
The store presentation foregrounds the comic premise and large feature counts, but the core format is a level-based brawler: more than 25 levels, five arenas, four characters, and unlockable equipment. That structure may offer less exploration than the epic-world framing suggests.
What is Zombie Vikings?
Zombie Vikings is a cooperative story brawler for one to four players.
Players choose from four undead Viking characters, each with distinct special attacks, then fight across more than 25 levels set in eight worlds. The campaign includes locations such as gingerbread swamps and the interior of the Midgaard Serpent, along with encounters against giant poultry. Single-player and online or offline multiplayer are available. More than 40 weapons can be unlocked, while collected Viking Runes provide additional abilities and allow different combat setups. The game also includes five Versus Arenas and a cooperative move that combines the characters into one giant zombie. Its story follows the group’s mission to recover Odin’s missing eye.
