On August 31, North Americans can step into the shoes of Chuck Greene, a resourceful ex-Motocross champ with his own ideas of how to kill zombies. Poor guy pretty much gets stuck in a horrible situation involving these psychotic infected, and to make matters worse, his daughter is there with him. She's been bitten, so you're gonna have to keep giving her anti-zombie meds called Zombrex every day. Boy, doesn't that sound fun?
Then there's some kind of gruesome reality show called "Terror is Reality," which is the whole reason Chuck went to Fortune City. So now Chuck has to plow through thousands of walking dead to save his daughter and compete on the game show -- what a badass.
Survive 72 hours and you'll like get an Achievement. Maybe Chuck can meet Frank West afterwards! And hopefully not get taken by the army.
