About the game
What you do in a play session
Hey everyone! Ready to amp up your Zombicide: Black Plague collection? This expansion, 'Ultimate Survivors', brings back the original heroes in souped-up versions! Just imagine: six classic survivors, now with brand-new miniatures and character cards that hit the table with two blue skills right from the start. It's like giving your favorite characters a power-up, allowing them to face the necromantic horrors with even more style and might from the very beginning of the game.
If you enjoy the adrenaline rush of Zombicide but wanted to give your usual heroes a special touch, this is the perfect choice. With a modular board and the good old dice rolling we're all familiar with, the cooperative experience gets even more intense. Each game is a new chance to see these veterans in action, with their enhanced abilities, ready to face whatever the necromancers throw their way. It's an opportunity to relive the fight for survival with a legendary twist, showing that these heroes aren't messing around!
This expansion is ideal for those who already own and love Black Plague and want to add more depth and options to their heroes. The new sculpts are a sight to behold, and starting with two blue skills makes a significant difference in the initial strategy. Get ready for more hordes, more challenges, and, of course, more cooperative fun in the Zombicide universe. It's time to show who's boss in this apocalypse!
