Saber Interactive is taking the fight to virtual reality. Announced today, World War Z VR is a brand-new, single-player, first-person shooter built from the ground up for VR, launching August 12, 2025, on Meta Quest and SteamVR. Inspired by the hit Paramount Pictures film and Saber’s globally successful franchise—played by over 25 million gamers—World War Z VR delivers an adrenaline-pumping zombie apocalypse like never before.
This isn’t just a port. World War Z VR reimagines everything from the original to take full advantage of VR’s immersive potential. From its high-stakes firefights to its sheer scale, Saber has raised the bar by unleashing up to 200 zombies on screen simultaneously—a technical breakthrough in VR gaming. Whether you’re fending off the swarm or making a last-ditch escape, expect every moment to test your nerves and skills.
The game features three sprawling, undead-infested locations—New York, Tokyo, and Marseille—each designed for maximum immersion. You’ll choose from seven playable characters, customize weapons and perks, and team up with an AI squad to survive increasingly complex missions. With three difficulty settings and adaptive zombie behavior, every match promises fresh, brutal encounters.
Pre-orders are now live on the Meta Store and Steam, priced at $19.99. Early buyers will receive the Golden Skin Pack, which includes four exclusive gold weapon skins. Steam players can also grab a bundle with the original World War Z for a 20% discount—perfect for those who want both the classic and VR experiences.
