The most macabre cemetery management game ever returns on September 22 for PC, PS5, Xbox, and Switch, featuring combat against undead hordes and automated production.
Those who played the first installment will remember the top-down, pixel-art cemetery management; here, the studio has rebuilt everything in 3D while retaining the fixed camera angle that made the series so recognizable.The biggest leap forward is in combat: for the first time, you can build a genuine zombie army and send it into battle against the hordes besieging a town now overrun by the undead.
It’s not just about bashing zombies, though.Gathering plants, animals, and human remains fuels automated production lines that run on their own, allowing the player to focus on farming, raising livestock, fishing, trading, and pursuing main quests.Rebuilding the town and helping its inhabitants becomes a parallel objective to managing the cemetery, rather than just a side activity.
Honestly, the heavy reliance on automation poses the biggest risk: if the game leaves too much of the work to machines, the "gritty" charm of the first game—the need to do everything with your own hands—might get lost along the way.We’ll find out in just a few days.In the meantime, we at Apocanow will be keeping a close eye on the release so we can bring you cheats and walkthroughs as soon as the game becomes available.
