Darkest Days: Zombie RPG Now on Android

NHN Corp's latest Android release, Darkest Days, plunges players into a gritty, atmospheric open-world zombie survival shooting RPG, setting it apart from the company's previous offerings.

Darkest Days: A Familiar Yet Engaging Formula

Set in a world ravaged by a brutal zombie virus outbreak, Darkest Days casts you as one of the fragile survivors navigating a nightmarish landscape. Your journey begins in Sand Creek, a place of desolate streets and pervasive decay, where you feel constantly watched. As you explore, you'll piece together the origins of the virus, venturing through a vast map that includes dusty desert villages, frozen islands, and dilapidated resort towns.

One of the game's standout features is the use of vehicles. From family cars to emergency vehicles like ambulances and police cruisers, you can find and commandeer various rides. Not only can these vehicles be used to mow down zombie hordes, but they can also be upgraded for durability against crashes and swarms.

The zombies in Darkest Days are not your average shamblers; they exhibit aggressive behavior and move in erratic patterns, making them feel like true hunters. You can take them down with precise shots or, in moments of panic, use explosives to clear out groups.

Another key aspect of the game is shelter-building. You have the opportunity to construct a full base, recruit survivors, and develop facilities. These recruits can assist in resource production and provide backup during fights, adding depth to the survival experience.

Are You a Fan of Zombie Games?

Darkest Days caters to both solo players and multiplayer enthusiasts. You can team up with others to battle endless zombie waves or tackle massive mutant monstrosities for valuable loot. The game also features PvP zones where you can compete with other players for rare resources.

With the global open beta marking the start of Season 1, dubbed "Fake Champion Luna," players can recruit Luna Bloody, a kendo expert, into their shelters. Engaging with her storyline offers insight into her presence amidst the apocalypse.

Darkest Days is available for free on the Google Play Store. Dive into this thrilling survival experience and see how you fare against the undead.
