This is where the true Zombies fans really pull together to get through what many only scratch the surface of. Especially if you are into finding the secrets of the map. Rounding up a posse of zombie slayers and shooting for top marks can have you playing just this one portion of the map pack for hours if not days.

There are female zombies, napalm zombies, and zombie monkeys that pester you constantly. There are plenty of new zombie models as well. It’s a jungle after all, complete with scenic views, waterfalls, and of course flesh eating undead waiting to round you up and eat you.

Fans of the Zombies mode will be making an about face in Shangri-La where players will once again be tasked with navigating the mode with the familiar cast of survivors: Dempsey, Richtofen, Takeo, and Nikolai.
