Better keep keen situational awareness - the dead are awake - and hungry...
In tomorrow's Undead Nightmare
for Red Dead Redemption, the mysterious plague that reawakens the dead
gives birth to four unique types of zombie. Each of these zombie
classes has their own characteristics.
To prepare to face off against hordes of these guys tomorrow, check out
this pictorial along with some info covering the four different breeds
you'll encounter. Look for Undead Nightmare on Xbox LIVE and
PlayStation Network to be available by tomorrow morning and we'll have
the word right here when it's confirmed available across all territories
on both platforms.
The traditional class of
zombie is generally a bit slower - but still with enough pep to get you,
and a tendency to grapple and bite when it comes in contact with the
living.
A leaner and more nimble type of zombie, the 'Bolter' class is quick and harder to line up in your sights, but more susceptible to damage.
Watch out for the big boys. The most strapping member of the zombie family, the 'Bruiser' class has
a heavy-set frame and moves slower than all other types of zombies, but
can overpower you with pure, brute force and a deadly melee attack when
in close.
Retching, writhing and spitting - 'Retchers' are
particularly repulsive creatures that give off a radioactive glow and
can inflict damage and impair movement with their signature projectile
spew.
