5 Zombie Army Trilogy
Next we have Zombie Army Trilogy. If you are interested in world history and zombies then this is the game for you. In this game, you can play three zombie-filled stories set in the era of World War II.

4 World War Z
World War Z is a 2019 zombie game based on a book. There is also a 2013 World War Z movie, but the plot of the game is different. In this game you can choose between seven different classes as you fight against zombies in cities around the world.
If you’ve seen the movie, then you know the iconic scene where zombies use their bodies to make a tower to reach a helicopter. The game uses this mechanic; swarms of up to 1,000 zombies can appear and tower towards you.
3 The Walking Dead series
The Walking Dead is an incredibly popular show based on a graphic novel series. The show inspired Telltale Games’ The Walking Dead games. On the Nintendo Switch you will find several games in this series that follow the story of Clementine.
Unlike other zombie shooting games on our list, The Walking Dead requires you to make choices that can influence the events around you. The original story of the game does not follow the plot of the show, which makes your first playthrough and unique and emotional experience.
2 Zombie Night Terror
Zombie Night Terror is an 8-bit zombie game where you control zombies. Instead of defeating the zombies, you have to spread the infection and take over the world. Even with this simple art style, zombies can still be pretty scary.
This unique take on the classic zombie apocalypse is presented as a management game. Zombies aren’t too smart, so it’s up to you to guide them. Zombie Night Terror has dozens of levels for you to play through as you make your way to the destruction of the world.
1 dark souls
Last on our list we have Dark Souls. This game needs no introduction as many call it the best game of all time. Dark Souls is not like other zombie games on our list. Large amounts of zombies are not present and you will not use modern weapons to wipe out waves of enemies.
Instead, you play as the Chosen Undead. While you’re not immediately called a zombie, you’re technically a cursed undead. In addition, you can find other undead enemies in the game. They’re not your typical brain-eating zombie, but they’re undead nonetheless.
