While scanning our Saturday rundown of “titles heading to Xbox next week“, a handful jumped off the page — none more so than the out-of-nowhere reveal that Yet Another Zombie Survivors will shuffle onto Xbox come September 10th!
The title has already offered a no-cost Xbox demo for quite some time, earning a stellar 4.8/5 average from 268 US player reviews. Over on Steam, the user verdict is “Very Positive,” with feedback that’s overwhelmingly glowing:
Cape God on Steam: “Among survivor-style games, this is easily one of the finest I’ve touched. The devs injected genuine ingenuity, crafting an experience that’s both captivating and carefully tuned to dodge the mind-numbing grind that plagues most entries in the genre. A bona-fide gem—I’m itching for future updates.”
MikeMilenko on Steam: “Yet Another Zombie Survivors is pure chaos in the best way. Runs are rapid, frantic, and insanely moreish—exactly what you crave from a horde shooter. Leveling up your crew, evolving weapons, and pushing just one wave further never loses its charm. The progression layers are gratifying, loaded with upgrades and combos to tinker with, while the cast and their skills keep every attempt feeling distinct. Battles escalate from messy to completely unhinged, and it’s a thrill to see how ludicrous your final build can get.”
Intriguing, isn’t it? Boot up the Xbox trial to judge for yourself; the full product lands for Xbox One, Series X|S on September 10.
The caveat: it debuts inside Microsoft’s “Game Preview” initiative, so think of it as early-access. That usually keeps the sticker price modest—we’re guessing roughly $14.99 at launch.
Need extra intel? Here’s the official blurb plus a handful of screenshots:
The swarm approaches, but your squad’s locked and loaded. Draft your team, pick their upgrades, and discover killer combos to mow down legions of undead. Endure. Mutate. Shatter every ceiling in this deceptively simple, ridiculously compulsive reverse-bullet-hell.
