Zombi Physical Release Coming for PC, PS4, and Xbox One
Zombi, the updated re-release of Wii U exclusive ZombiU, is getting a physical release next year.
According to Eurogamer, Zombi will hit store shelves on January 21, 2016 for PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One. The first-person zombie survival game has been available via digital download only since August 18, 2015.
Following the re-release’s announcement earlier in the year, Ubisoft detailed how it would adapt the game’s Wii U Gamepad functions into the other console and PC versions. Most of the functionality made the transition, with the exception of the single-system multiplayer, which tasked a player with placing zombies in the path of a survivor. It appears that was impossible to replicate without a touchscreen.

9 Best Stealth Missions in Games
Stealth design has a particular art to it, and the best stealth missions in games are timeless, unforgettable, and the sort of thing you’ll talk about for years. The sense of power comes not from force, but from staying out of sight.
The delicate balance of tension and release in terrific stealth missions make for some of the greatest moments, levels, and encounters in games — and these are the nine best stealth missions that do it best.
A Change in Course begins as a standard Mark of the Ninja mission — which already guarantees that it’s excellent — but takes an interesting and exciting turn to differentiate itself. The 2D stealth game tasks you with opening gas vents and setting an entire building on fire, all while evading or assassinating patrolling enemies. Gadgets, shadows, and careful timing are necessary to get through A Change in Course, which ends with a fast-paced escape from the fire — and the frantic enemies you’ll leave burning behind.
