Left to Survive celebrates eight years with zombie barbecue chaos

Left to Survive is celebrating its eighth anniversary, which in zombie-game years is basically surviving three apocalypses, two bunker arguments and one suspiciously quiet shopping mall. The Festive Barbecue event runs through July 27 and adds themed missions, zombie skins, a Birthday Advent calendar and an anniversary sniper rifle with a lightning ricochet perk.

Subtle? Absolutely not. Useful against undead crowds? Very possibly. With over 85 million installs behind it, the game has earned a noisy birthday party, even if the guests keep trying to chew on the furniture. For returning players, this is a good excuse to jump back in, collect rewards and remind the zombies that anniversaries are no excuse for poor manners.
