Zombieland is getting a VR game adaptation from Sony, and an official announcement trailer has been released online. Featuring fast-paced, arcade-style action, players will put into practice the zombie survival tips learned in the films to survive the onslaught of the undead in the game. You can watch the official announcement trailer below.
The game description, per Sony: “In #Zombieland VR: Headshot Fever, you’ll survive ferocious zombies and enjoy the dystopian humour of Zombieland as Tallahassee, Wichita, Columbus and Little Rock train you to run the fastest, most dangerous zombie-killing race course ever devised – the Zombieland Invitational!
Zombieland: Headshot Fever combines classic arcade light-gun shooting with split-second racing mechanics. Two quick headshots turn the world slow, giving players more time to rack up combos, get faster times and claw their way to the top of the leaderboards with awesome weapons, powerful upgrades and head-popping, clock-stopping, zombie-killing arcade action!”
Released in 2009, the original Zombieland was directed by Ruben Fleischer and written by Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick. Famously, it starred Woody Harrelson, Emma Stone, Jesse Eisenberg, and Abigail Breslin as a group of survivors who band together to survive the zombie apocalypse. The film was a hit at the box office and stands as one of the more memorable zombie flicks of the past 20 years.

In 2019, Tallahassee and pals reemerged in the sequel Zombieland: Double Tap. The film also brought back the original director and writers with David Callaham also contributing to the script. Also a success at the box office, the sequel may not be the last we see of the franchise on the big screen, as Ruben Fleischer has also said he’d be up for making a standalone movie following Zoey Deutch as Madison.
Zombieland: Headshot Fever will be releasing this Spring for Oculus Quest, Rift, SteamVR, Viveport, and later for PlayStationVR. You can find out more info at the official website.
