The briefing

About this game

Infected is a fast-paced third-person comedy zombie shooter set in New York during the Christmas season. As New York Cop Agent Stevens, players battle zombies while uncovering the unusual power of their own blood.

The central combat mechanic involves weakening zombies with gunfire before injecting them with a vial of Agent Stevens's blood. The infected target then explodes, potentially creating chain reactions that spread the anti-zombie blood to nearby enemies.

The game also features an online mode in which defeating another player passes your virus to their avatar. The strain can continue moving between players, and a world map shows how far it has traveled.
