Activision is set to release "Call of Duty: World War II" ("COD:WWII") on Nov. 3, with many critics and gamers alike saying that it could be one of the best first-person shooter games to come out this year. In order to amplify the entire setting of the game, the developers introduced a new game mode called the Nazi Zombies.

The game will focus on notable events and iconic locations across Europe related to the WWII, with the United States' 1st Infantry Division members as the key characters of the campaign mode. The sequel will feature all the elements of war including medic squadmates, capturing enemies alive, navigating enemy movement, and strategic survival.  Unlike previous "Call of Duty" games, the WWII installment will feature Divisions rather than the usual create-a-class system. There are five divisions to choose from with different combat features and advantages.

However, fans are excited about the new co-operative zombie mode. Players will engage on a mission to recover stolen artworks from the Axis powers in the snowy village of Mittelburg, Germany. There are four characters in this game mode with distinct skills and capabilities that will be relevant in completing the mission. Players will have to face monstrous enemies who were Nazi soldiers before.

The game "Dead Space," developed by Sledgehammer, is recognized as one of the best survival horror games for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. Critics and gamers have high expectations for the zombie mode in this upcoming game. "COD: WWII's" creative director Cameron Dayton is confident that the Sledgehammer team will deliver. In an interview with GamesRadar, Dayton said, "I think this is, without a doubt, the scariest version of zombies that you will have ever seen."

The game will be available on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC upon release. Pre-ordering the Digital Deluxe Edition of the game will include the base Game, season pass, and additional bonus content.
