Zombies Defense Game Mode
The Zombie Defense game mode introduces a dangerous threat to your Civilization: the dead that do not stay dead. Zombies can rise from the ashes of war, and as they prey upon your and other’s lands, they spread their deadly curse onwards. Build new defensive structures to protect your territory. Make use of new City Projects to manipulate Zombies against your still living opponents.
Zombies
Zombies are melee units that wander the map. They cannot pillage your Improvements but will immediately go after any unit wandering outside and attack your City Centers and defensible Districts. Zombie hordes are unrelenting, but predictable as they will always attack the closest non-Zombie unit. But there are new defenses – your Builders and Military Engineers can construct traps and walls, and new City Projects allow you to take control of the dead for a time, using them to attack your enemies or rerouting them to your neighbor’s door.
Zombie units thrive on the aftermath of war. When a unit dies on the map, it carries a slight chance of returning as a Zombie some turns later. However, if a unit is destroyed by a Zombie, it will rise again on the following turn. If a Zombie attack lowers a city’s population, a new Zombie unit will spawn immediately next to the city. The undead menace steadily grows in strength as well as number – for each Zombie killed anywhere in the world, remaining and new Zombies get stronger.
New Defensive Structures
Builders can create Barricades or Traps to help fend off enemies. Later eras can grant the ability to create more powerful Barricades or Traps. While these can be powerful defenses against the living dead, they can also be useful against the units of other civilizations, as they deal damage to any sort of enemy.
Traps
• Trap – An unworkable early Improvement that deals a moderate damage to, and depletes the movement of, hostile units passing directly through it. Unlocked with Construction and built using a Builder Charge. Does not prevent unit movement through this space.
• Modernized Trap – An unworkable later Improvement that deals significant damage to, and depletes the movement of, hostile units passing directly through it. Unlocked with Ballistics and built using a Charge from a Military Engineer. Does not prevent unit movement through this space.
Barricades
• Barricade – An unworkable early Improvement that deals minor damage to, and exerts zone of control on, hostile units passing through or adjacent to it. Unlocked with Military Engineering and built using a Builder Charge. Does not prevent unit movement through this space.
• Reinforced Barricade – An unworkable later Improvement that deals moderate damage to, and exerts zone of control on, hostile units passing through or adjacent to it. Unlocked with Rifling and built using a Charge from a Military Engineer. Does not prevent unit movement through this space.
• Existing Civilization VI infrastructure has been updated to also provide additional options for Zombie defenses: Fort, Roman Fort, Great Wall, [Ethiopia Pack] Vampire Castle, [Gathering Storm] the Maori’s Pa, [Vikings Scenario Pack] Alcazar.
New City Projects
Using the Turn Undead project at a Holy Site or the Dark Signal project at a Campus will allow you to briefly take control of Zombies within your city limits, meaning that you can turn the horde against your enemies. Just be sure to be safely out of reach when your control expires or when you strategically end it. In addition, Spies can spread the deadly curse to other civilizations with the Zombie Outbreak action.
• Holy Site - Turn Undead – Upon completion, gain control of the Zombies currently in this city’s territory. Control lasts 15 turns.
• Campus - Dark Signal - Upon completion, gain control of the Zombies currently in this city’s territory. Control lasts 30 turns.
• City Center Spy action - Zombie Outbreak - Upon completion, has a chance to spawn one Zombie per worked tile in the target city.

Must be built on a Coast tile that is adjacent to a Harbor district.
Etemenanki
• +2 Science. +2 Science and +1 Production to all Marsh tiles in your empire. +1 Science and +1 Production on all Floodplains tiles for this city. Must be built on Floodplains or Marsh.
