About the game

What you do in a play session

If you're already a fan of Zombicide and want to upgrade your roster of survivors, the Set #3 – Survivors & Zombivors is a must-have. This expansion brings 12 incredible miniatures, covering both the human and zombivor versions of six new characters, each packed with personality. We're talking about an eclectic group ranging from a serial killer who found his true calling in the apocalypse, to a miniature sculptor who seems to be enjoying the end of the world a bit too much. Each of these survivors isn't just a pretty face on the board; they bring unique skills that shift how you approach missions, forcing the group to adapt their strategy to survive the hordes. Achille, for instance, is a constant danger, while Chuck brings that 'video game nerd' knowledge which, believe it or not, is super useful when civilization has collapsed. There's also Mack, the car salesman who turned his grief into fury against the undead, and Smith, the ex-special forces operative who is struggling with teamwork but remains a combat machine. Mike, on the other hand, is a treat for those who enjoy meta-humor in their games. The gameplay mechanics maintain the frantic pace of the series: you'll need to manage your actions wisely, roll plenty of dice, and pray that no one gets eliminated too early. As promotional characters, they add a layer of variety that refreshes any scenario from previous seasons. It's the perfect choice for those looking to diversify tactics, increase the challenge level, or simply have more detailed miniatures to paint and display. If you're looking for characters that add extra flavor to the game's cooperative narrative, this pack is the right call to make your Zombicide sessions even more chaotic and memorable. Ready your weapons, pick your favorite survivor, and try not to be the first one to become zombie lunch!
