"Darkest Days Launches: Zombie-Shooting Chaos Hits Mobile"

By CarterMay 08,2025

If you've been craving some intense zombie-slaying and apocalypse-survival action, you'll be thrilled to know that Darkest Days is now available on both iOS and Android. This open-world survival action shooter combines the best elements of top releases in the genre, delivering an immersive experience right at your fingertips.

It's easy to spot the inspirations behind Darkest Days as you're thrust into a world overrun by zombies, where survival hinges on your ability to scavenge for equipment and weapons, forge alliances (or rivalries), and build a base to withstand the relentless attacks of the ravenous dead.

Many games have attempted to capture the essence of iconic zombie films, such as Project Zomboid, Seven Days to Die, and State of Decay. Darkest Days follows suit, incorporating the mechanics that made these titles so beloved, for better or for worse.

Darkest Days Gameplay**Rule #1: Cardio** - Darkest Days breaks away from the typical mobile zombie survival genre, which has been dominated by tower defense and strategy games. Instead, it offers an engaging third-person shooting and survival experience. Players can dive into both single and multiplayer modes, drive vehicles, and battle zombies across diverse biomes, starting from Sandy Creek.

While it remains to be seen if Darkest Days will distinguish itself from its predecessors, it's clear that we haven't yet seen a game quite like this make a significant impact on mobile platforms. With its focus on more intimate survival gameplay, Darkest Days has the potential to become a long-term favorite among fans.

If your appetite for battling the brain-hungry undead extends beyond Darkest Days, be sure to explore our curated lists of the top 20+ zombie-themed games available on both iOS and Android!
