Hmmm I can pretty much see the 'Zombie Army Trilogy' template bolted onto a new setting in this. Seems like they've taken their work there, put it in a different setting and amped it up abit from there.

The environment looks interesting, need more Egyptian, Aztec, Inca and Mayan themed games.

My interest level depends on if the single player mode is actually balanced for one player and doable unlike most of horde mode like games.
Fingers crossed!

Never played the Zombie Army Trilogy, but this reminded me of Hunt, when it was still called "Horrors of the Gilded Age", so I'm interested.

I don't care for Call Of Duty zombies, so this does nothing for me. Seems like an expansion pack for that, down to the retro B movie presentation.

I was hoping it'd be an adventure game that was actually about exploring, puzzles, treasures, characters, and a fun plot. Oh well.

ZAT is nothing like COD zombies if it's based off of that.
ZAT always had a more exploring and survival feeling, like a weird Resident Evil - L4D hybrid. I would say it will be more like that.

I'm not sure about the only person of color in the game having this particular design:

But maybe there's some context behind it that renders it sensible and justifiable

Damn! Imagine this same trailer with 3 men and a woman in a blue Cadillac being attacked by a horde of dinosaurs.

Capcom need a remake of Cadillacs & Dinosaurs!

I'm just surprised that no one on the development team had anything to say about something so glaringly controversial

That was my initial thought..... but for now im giving them the benefit of the doubt
I was checking out the youtube comments and some interesting tidbits
-Gameplay at E3 (of course)
- More characters to be announced
-closer range that ZA, more exploration and traps
- Narrator confirmed for the whole game
- Re: african bush lady: She's a masai and dressed in traditional garb
Was zombie Army trilogy good? does it have local coop?
