A new gameplay overview for World War Z: Aftermath is here to tease us with all the new features coming to World War Z this Fall
It is time to take a walk through World War Z: Aftermath to see the latest that we will get added into the game of it all. There is going to be more to this expansion than just the new locations and weapons in the game, and Saber Interactive is ready to spoil us on those details for now. The best kind of spoilers, as it only shows off what we should expect to get to play with in World War Z this Fall and the other little upgrades that are coming to the PS5 and Xbox Series X. Those are more of the visual and performance side of things more than anything as all of the gameplay stuff will hit the PS4, Xbox One, and PC when it all drops out there too. Just about as expected out there for now.
The bigger aspects that will be hitting World War Z: Aftermath when it comes will be a smattering of new locations that will have all of the same level of story to play with out there in Russia and Rome. There will also be a new class called the Vanguard that uses an electrified shield to clear out the way for them and others. It looks interesting but I am not certain on all of that. More so when we see that we will be able to play through World War Z again in a first-person mode now instead of the third-person that we had at launch. That could be a fun new way to do it all and maybe we will get one more step closer to playing it all in a VR setting for those that might want to go down that path here.
