RE: Zombie Survival

🧟 RE: Zombie Survival is currently in active development! New content, balance changes, improvements, and bug fixes will continue to arrive as the game grows. Found a problem or have an idea? Join the community and help shape the future of the game! Build. Defend. Upgrade. Escape. Or die and join the horde. RE: Zombie Survival is a PvPvE survival game inspired by classic barricade-focused Zombie Survival on Garry's Mod. • Humans must work together to protect Sigils through six escalating waves while AI and player-controlled Zombies tear through their defenses. • Build barricades from the environment, choose your equipment, create specialized Trinket builds, upgrade your weapons, support your teammates, and prepare for a desperate final escape. • But be careful—every survivor who falls becomes another member of the horde. 💀Death changes sides. • When a Human dies, they rise again as a Zombie and begin hunting their former teammates. Earn enough Brains as a Zombie and you may be able to fight your way back to humanity! 🛡️ Survive as a Human • The Humans must defend their Sigils and survive an increasingly dangerous undead assault. 🧱 Build Powerful Barricades • Pick up, move, rotate, and position props from around the map. • Nail props together to create defensive barricades. • Repair damaged defenses before the Zombies break through. • Reinforce weak areas and create fallback positions. • Work with other survivors instead of fighting over building space. The strongest weapon is not always a gun—a well-built barricade can save the entire team. 🔫 Choose and Improve Your Equipment Create your starting loadout using the **Worth Shop**, then continue improving during the match through the Survivor Shop and Inventory. Purchase and manage: • Guns • Melee weapons • Barricading tools • Medical equipment • Ammunition • Deployables • Trinkets • Weapon and tool upgrades Your starting equipment uses a normal **Worth** budget, while Trinkets use their own separate **Trinket Worth** budget. Choose carefully—you cannot take everything. 💎 Create Your Own Build Trinkets allow you to specialize for different roles and playstyles, including: • 🩺 Medic builds • 🔨 Barricader builds • 🔫 Gun-focused builds • ⚔️ Melee builds • 🛡️ Defensive builds • 💥 Offensive builds • 🤝 Support builds • ⚡ Elemental and performance-focused builds Experiment with different combinations and find the build that works best for your team. 🤝 Support Your Team Survival requires more than dealing damage. • Heal injured teammates. • Repair damaged barricades. • Protect builders and medics. • Cover weak points in the defenses. • Deploy equipment that helps the entire team. • Share information and adapt when a position begins to collapse. A coordinated team can survive situations that would quickly overwhelm players fighting alone. ☣️ Rise as a Zombie When a Human dies, their fight is not over—they rise as part of the Zombie horde. Your objective is simple: Break their defenses. Corrupt their Sigils. Leave no survivors. 🧟 Choose the Right Zombie Class Zombie classes feature different combinations of: • Health • Movement speed • Attack damage • Attack speed • Defensive strength • Special abilities • Mobility options Regular Zombies form the core of the horde and are free to use. Additional classes become available as the match progresses, allowing the Zombie team to adapt to the Humans' defenses. Some classes may leap, climb walls, spit poison, unleash powerful roars, enter a berserk state, generate protective shields, or use other specialized abilities. Do not repeatedly charge the strongest barricade with the wrong class. Search for weak points, attack from multiple directions, and choose the class that counters the Human defense. 🧠 Earn Brains and Essence Contribute to the horde by: • Damaging Humans • Killing Humans • Destroying barricades • Opening paths for other Zombies • Pressuring and corrupting Sigils Brains can help you earn your way back to the Human team, while Essence can provide access to powerful Zombie opportunities. 👹 Demi-Bosses and Boss Zombies Selected players may rise as devastating Demi-Boss or Boss Zombies. Demi-Bosses are powerful specialist classes that can break fortified positions and create openings for the horde. Chosen players may receive a free Demi-Boss opportunity, while other Zombies may be able to spend enough Essence to use an available Demi-Boss. Boss Zombies are reserved for players selected by the game. Bosses possess exceptional power and can completely change the course of a match—but once a Boss rises, its chosen type is locked for that life. Protect your Bosses, follow their attack, and use the chaos they create to overwhelm the survivors. 🌊 How a Match Works 1️⃣ Prepare Humans choose their starting loadouts, gather props, build barricades, and prepare the Sigils for the coming attack. 2️⃣ Survive Six Escalating Waves Each wave brings greater pressure, stronger Zombie classes, and more dangerous threats. Humans earn Points by fighting the horde and supporting their team. Zombies earn Brains and Essence by attacking the survivors and their defenses. 3️⃣ Rebuild During Intermissions Use the time between waves to: • Repair damaged barricades • Heal teammates • Purchase ammunition and supplies • Upgrade weapons and tools • Reposition defenses • Prepare for newly unlocked Zombie classes Do not waste the intermission—the next wave will be worse. 4️⃣ Make the Final Escape After surviving all six waves, the Sigils become the Humans' path to escape. Survivors must leave their defenses and reach an active Sigil before time expires while the Zombie team makes one final attempt to stop them. 5️⃣ Face Sudden Death When the escape period ends, Super Zombies are unleashed. New Zombies entering the fight receive powerful Sudden Death enhancements, turning the final moments into a desperate struggle for anyone who failed to escape. 📈 Persistent Progression Your accomplishments continue beyond a single match. Earn persistent XP and increase your overall level by: • Damaging and killing Zombies • Killing player-controlled Zombies • Surviving waves • Repairing barricades and Sigils • Nailing and maintaining props • Escaping successfully • Winning matches • Contributing to your team RE: Zombie Survival tracks both seasonal and lifetime statistics, including Score, damage, kills, assists, repairs, escapes, waves survived, matches played, and more. The level system is designed for long-term progression and continues far beyond Level 100. ⚙️ Player-Friendly Features • Dedicated Human starter tutorial • Dedicated Zombie starter tutorial • Detailed Human Worth Shop guide • Detailed Zombie Class Shop guide • Customizable HUD scale and opacity • Multiple crosshair styles and colors • Damage number options • Prop health display options • Team and global chat • Voice volume controls • Player privacy controls • Accessibility and performance settings • Detailed scoreboard • Spectator system • Map voting • Persistent player preferences Whether you are completely new to Zombie Survival or an experienced barricade builder, the game includes tools to help you learn and customize your experience. 🎯 What Kind of Player Will You Become? Will you be the barricader holding the final doorway together? The medic keeping the team alive? The heavily armed survivor covering the front line? The Zombie searching for the forgotten entrance? The Demi-Boss smashing through an entire defense? Or the Boss Zombie that finally ends the Humans' escape? Every match creates new defenses, new strategies, new failures, and new last-second victories. Survive together—or rise together.
