Zombie Within News

Here we are gathered around the campfire, time to tell the Zombie Within Community tall tales about your greatest kills in the game! Tell us the tale of how you’re the best Zombie or Defender around with an accompanying picture of your in-game stats, and our favorite retelling will win 3 Zombie Within Keys to give away to their friends! Use #SummertimeTallTales in your submissions to be considered.

Example:
There I was hiding behind the rvs in the main map, when my buddy Chris rounded the bend as a massive hulking zombie. He was swinging at innocent townsfolk left and right, but that’s when I unleashed hell on this overzealous powerhouse. With my makeshift rifle I slid out from behind the rv’s and in one shot, completely downed the hulking monstrosity. Right between the eyes, before he even knew what hit him. I had been waiting all night to settle our score from 5 matches before when he did me dirty with a trap in front of the ambulances. Revenge never felt so good as I watched his massive form crumple in front of me. The town was safe… for now. #SummertimeTallTales

There’s imposters everywhere you look nowadays, but how would you even know? They blend in so well with their surroundings, kind of like weeds masquerading as flowers. You need more shots Defenders and it’s time to get pruning.

For this month's Community Event create a custom game room in Zombie Within and max out the number of shots the Defender can take in a session. Then take down the Zombies one by one.

3 Random Winners who submit a screenshot of them taking down a Zombie Imposter in this mode will win 3 Zombie Within Keys EACH to share with their friends and family. Use hashtag #ZombieWithinPruningTheGarden in your submission to be considered!

[h3]Submission Rules:[/h3]

• Launch a Zombie Within Custom game, allotting 10 shots to the Defenders
  
• Post a Screenshot of the Defender shooting the Imposter in this Custom Game mode to the Screenshots section of the Steam Forum
  
• Use hashtag #ZombieWithinPruningTheGarden in your submission to be considered
  
• Once winners are announced you have 30 days to respond to the ww_cm account to receive your keys
