Infected Threats & Boss Bestiary
From shambling suburban walkers to the colossal 28,000 HP Final Overlord blocking the 95,000m bunker, memorize attack patterns, spawn ranges, and counter strategies.
Shambling Walker
The common infected. Slow and weak alone, but dangerous when cluttering bus doorways.
Aim for the head with revolver or clean up with melee weapons to save ammo.
Lurking Crawler
Low-profile infected that crawls under bus wheels and bites ankles during scavenging.
Look down while exiting the bus and use downward melee swings.
Feral Sprinter
Sprints in packs, capable of leaping through open bus windows and catching up to slow buses.
Keep windows barricaded and deploy stun traps or shotgun blasts at close range.
Corrosive Spitter
Hangs back and spits globes of green acid that melt bus metal plating and blind passengers.
Prioritize with Scoped Hunting Rifle before it can hit the bus furnace.
Armored Riot Guard
Ex-police wearing ballistic helmets and riot shields. Bulletproof from the front.
Flank from behind, use Sledgehammer heavy blows, or ignite with Molotovs.
Mutated Brute
Massive behemoth that charges into the bus front bumper, completely halting vehicle momentum.
Fire shotgun blasts into its glowing chest cavity and dodge its shoulder charge.
Night Stalker
Spawns only in pitch-black night fog. Snatches lone survivors who stray too far from bus headlights.
Stay within the UV searchlight beam; UV light stuns and strips its shadow armor.
Highway Goliath (Barricade Boss)
Guards the 30,000m Highway Overpass. Throws crushed cars and slams the bridge deck.
Use high ground on the bus roof, focus rifle fire on weak points, and keep the engine running.
Industrial Abomination
Guards the 60,000m Trainyard Depot. Summons endless waves of sprinters and spews acid clouds.
Activate Necromancer thralls to pull aggro while gunners unleash Tommy guns and auto-turrets.
The Final Overlord (Gatekeeper)
The apocalyptic titan blocking the entrance to the 95,000m Final Evacuation Bunker.
All survivors must combine fire, deploy all pipe bombs, and ram the final blockade at max speed.
Boss Encounter Protocols: 30k, 60k & 95k Checkpoints
Do not leave the bus! He throws wreckage at ground survivors. Station gunners on the roof with Hunting Rifles and focus fire on his cranium.
Summons continuous sprinters from the train cars. Use Tommy Guns and roof flame turrets to keep the perimeter clear while chipping his 14,000 HP.
Throw all accumulated pipe bombs at once, engage engine overdrive, and ram the final gate while firing point-blank shotguns.
