Titled "Zombie no Afureta Sekai de Ore Dake ga Osowarenai: Rakuen e no Michi," the RTS tower defense game will launch on Steam in 2027. Players control protagonist Yusuke Takemura, who has the special ability to not be attacked by zombies, as they gather weapons and defend their base.
Frontier Works confirmed the project on August 15. The game is an RTS tower defense title based on the anime "Zombie no Afureta Sekai de Ore Dake ga Osowarenai." Players take on the role of Yusuke Takemura, a protagonist with the unique ability to be ignored by zombies, and must gather weapons and supplies to defend a base against incoming zombie hordes.
The game features two main phases. In the exploration phase, players collect usable weapons and materials while also interacting with various characters to recruit them as allies. During zombie attack phases, allies automatically attack with equipped weapons, while the player can freely control the protagonist to provide support attacks or first aid.
According to the Steam store page, players will face morally heavy decisions, such as whether to help others, abandon them, or demand compensation. The game is scheduled for release on PC via Steam in 2027.
