How co-op works
Online players share an open world and prepare for the zombie wave that attacks every night. Daytime work splits across gathering, hunting, dungeon exploration, crafting, automation, and vehicle use; before dusk, the group designs walls, traps, and firing positions, then repairs breaches during the assault.
About this game
Night of the Dead drops you into a sprawling open world overrun by zombies, blending survival, base building, and tower defense into one intense cooperative experience. You and your team explore the landscape for resources, weapons, and equipment while preparing for the horde that arrives every night.

Resource management is central: gather materials, craft defenses, and construct fortified bases strong enough to repel endless waves. Building traps, walls, and automated turrets becomes a shared project, and every night tests how well your group planned during the day. Scavenging, upgrading gear, and coordinating defensive positions keep everyone engaged.
The game supports online and LAN co-op, making it easy to team up with friends for extended survival sessions. Voice communication helps a lot when zombies breach the walls or when you need to split up for supply runs. Each night brings escalating pressure, rewarding groups that plan together and defend smart.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do we share resources and building progress in co-op?
Yes, cooperative play centers around shared base building and resource management. You'll work together gathering materials, constructing defenses like walls and turrets, and fortifying your base to survive the nightly zombie waves as a team.
Can we play without defending against zombies every night?
No, the nightly zombie waves are a core feature of the game. Each night brings escalating hordes that attack your base, so defending is essential. The daytime is when you explore, gather resources, and prepare your defenses for the next wave.
Is voice chat important for this game?
While not required, voice communication is very helpful. Coordinating supply runs, calling out breaches in your defenses, and planning defensive positions during zombie attacks all benefit from real-time communication between teammates.
