Wii U Exclusive ZombiU Rated M For Strong Language, Intense Violence, Blood And Gore

Ubisoft’s upcoming Wii U exclusive, ZombiU, launches alongside the new console on November 18th. The survival horror game is rated M (Mature) by the ESRB. ZombiU features strong language, intense violence, blood and gore.

Rating summary: In this survival horror game, players assume the role of London inhabitants in the wake of a zombie invasion. From a first-person perspective, players scavenge the city and use realistic firearms, explosives, and melee attacks to kill waves of zombies; battles are highlighted by loud shrieks, impact sounds, and large splashes of blood. Players can also perform finishing moves to dispatch downed zombies: stomping on/bashing in their heads in with a cricket bat. Attacks often result in decapitated/dismembered bodies, and dead enemies continue to incur damage when shot. The words “f**k” and “sh*t” can be heard in the dialogue.

    1. (this is not a reply to john) Wow if you are just showing up here and you want to read the comments don’t even bother the spam here is crazy!

      1. Yeah, I’m actually going to cancel my pre-order due to the language. It isn’t that I can’t handle it, it’s that I do have a younger brother that I’d rather not have using those words, and my parents are against it.

        So meh. Cuts my launch-day savings by $70 and gives me the opportunity to save up enough for something else.

              1. Doesn’t it make you wonder what’s wrong with Nintendo’s marketing division? Seriously, it’s no wonder the GameCube was seen as a kiddy console and, on top of that, they gave it a lunch box handle AND was in purple.

    1. By the way is it possible for Sickr to disable the posting of YT videos? I’m actually getting tired of these spammers and seeing the same shit posted in every reply to me.

      Because that’s exactly what it is, spam.

      1. You are getting sick of spam? I have not seen a single comment from any Areola, Aiolu, Alias, or what ever the hell you wish to call yourself that could be called anything but spam.

      2. you seem to be an expert on spam, seeing as that’s all you post. and seriously, why in the hell do you care? why do YOU of all people, care about what people post on here? you’ve made it very clear that you apparently have no interest in nintendo, and even hate everything that they do, yet, for SOME reason you feel the need to troll this news site and SPAM it with your hate comments on every single motherfucking article. YOU are the worst spam on this site. not people posting youtube videos occasionally.

                  1. Aeolus, your a BEAST. I love reading your comments. Keep owning these retards on this site that believe their own crap.

      3. how quaint, because all you do is spam the same crap that you’ve been saying from the beginning also. If he has to ban YT videos, he has to ban you and everyone who collectively uses the name “Aeolus”.

    2. I like the you tube videos, especially the ones posted in response to you.
      I don’t think it’s spam. Not anymore than hearing your broken-record negative comments disparaging a product you never played.

    3. You’re here a lot man/lady. Be honest with me. Are you just a pessimistic fan of Nintendo? Or are you not a fan at all?

    1. It’s Nintendo, of course it was. The blood was replaced by sweat and a rainbow shoots out of the neck hole after you decapitate a “not living person”(because studies say the word “zombies” hurts childhoods). They also took out all guns, replacing them with pillows. Oh, and Nintendo thought the setting was too dark for the kiddos, enjoy the new setting: Disney land. Due to all the changes, the game is now set for fall 2013. Iwata: (laughs)

  1. Can’t wait for this. I’m getting the ZombiU bundle. On that note, I have a question. I hear Zavvi are terrible for getting you preorders on time? I know they say it takes 3 weeks for international, but I’m in England. Does anyone else here have Zavvi Preorder experience?

        1. Hard to tell on a site like this.

          Seriously, users cancelling for minor things like upscaled 1080p being on a few games than native; oh well, more pre-order opportunities for those who are interested in the game library primarily. Possibly on of the reasons why Wal-Mart stores started accepting in-store pre-orders today. =)

    1. If it had zombie horses and clowns, I’d be totally for that. Clowns are fucking terrifying, zombie clowns? No thanks…

  2. Thank you alba for this post idk why all these people are hating on this. It could’ve been T you never know. Now I know to bring my ID when I buy it.

  3. I played zombiu exstensively yesterday , its really quite awesome . Calnt wait to own it and the majority of the other games on the console .

    The best game was by far as I expected : Rayman Legends , me and my bro were playing multiplayer and it works so well , it adds that massive amount of innovation and freshness what gaming has been lacking .

    It’s seriously very very good . NSMBU is nearly as good , placeing blocks for other players to reach high areas is suprisingly amazing .

      1. I’m not sure bro ! We were both taking turns being murphy and rayman . It was an absolout blast !!! BTW have you seen these spam comments on this page lmao . someone went too far.

          1. Looks like It”s been moderated lol . But that looked like the devil had been to an amsterdam coffee shop and then decided to troll us .

  4. Based on some of the comments, it appears some people are acting like they forgot that this is a Ubisoft game, not a Nintendo game. This is a Nintendo-exclusive, sure. But ZombiU is developed by Ubisoft Montpellier. (The same team working on Rayman Legends)

  5. I’m so freakin’ pumped to get ZombiU on the U alongside Black Ops II, Ninja Gaiden 3: Razor’s Edge and New SMB U!

  6. This is the First Time à Nintendo console gets 3 18+ on launch.
    And the First time Nintendo had an 18+ exclusive.
    Nintendo is starting to grow up.
