Bloody Roguelike Zombie Survival Game ‘Ed-0: Zombie Uprising’ to Get Physical PS5 Release October 10th [Trailer]

Published

After receiving a digital release last July on Steam, PlayStation 5, and the Xbox Series, Lancarse and publisher D3 PUBLISHER have announced that a physical version of their zombie survival roguelike action title Ed-0: Zombie Uprising will be coming October 10 to the PlayStation 5, courtesy of Aksys Games. The announcement is accompanied by a rather humourous trailer, which also features plenty of plasma and zombie smashing. Pre-orders are now available via the Aksys Games store.

In case you haven’t heard of the game, Ed-0: Zombie Uprising takes place in an alternate 1854, in a fictional Edo-era Japan. Mysterious ships have made landfall on the island, bringing with them a zombie plague that quickly infects the island. A select few have managed to maintain their humanity through their immunity to the outbreak. It’s up to these three “Zom-beings” to fight back against the plague, and bring peace back to their homeland.

Players can select from either a samurai, sumo wrestler or ninja to take on the hordes. Ed-0: Zombie Uprising includes various undead enemies, ranging from “newly interpreted” Japanese zombies to foreign invaders born after the “Zombie Industrial Revolution.” Players will unlock more as they play (and succeed) with an increasing number of possibilities to customize builds to their liking—with the option to bump up the level of difficulty to test one’s capability.

If you’re content with getting it digitally, Ed-0: Zombie Uprising is currently available with a hefty 75% discount on Steam during the Steam Summer Sale until July 11.

‘Resident Evil’ Cast Reunite With Rebecca Chambers’ Actress [Watch]

Published

on

Director Andrew Saullo has just dropped the second Resident Evil cast reunion. And this time, Charlie KraslavskyGreg Smith and Eric Pirius (who played Chris Redfield, Barry Burton and Albert Wesker, respectively) are joined by the surprise addition of Rebecca Chambers’ actress, known as Linda! The quartet were joined by Saullo, as well as Residence of Evil founder JJ Trulock to discuss (what else?) their experience with Resident Evil, as well as some behind-the-scenes info on the shoot for the cutscenes.

Regarding the shoot for the cutscenes, Linda said that the experience “left a really big impact” on her at the time. “It was a big day. It was a wild shoot and it was very different than anything else that I had been doing in Japan at the time when I was modelling.” Still, Linda did remember her fellow actors, though she admitted that they all “looked a little bit different” at the time, including herself. “I remember for the shoot, I actually had blonde hair, and they spray painted my hair that morning so I would look more like Rebecca.”

As for her knowledge of Resident Evil, Linda admitted that she’s still learning about the series and her character. “I didn’t know a lot about the job, or that anyone was looking for [me] up until probably about four years ago, where someone reached out to me and they found me. But even then, I didn’t understand the magnitude of the entire situation. Only now I’m realizing like wow, there’s maybe someone out there that you know it’s like ‘Wow, that’s Rebecca Chambers!’. So it’s new to me, and I’m kind of just going with it.”

The interview (which you can check out below) also includes a special announcement of a four-part fan-made web series, which will be directed by Andrew Saullo (who also directed the fan-made short The Keeper’s Diary, in case you missed it). All four of the actors will be reprising their roles in the web series. It will not be an official Resident Evil series (for copyright reasons). Crowdfunding for the project will be launched “soon”.
