Rezurrection Trailer Shows Us Zombie Killing Research

Trevor Stamp — Thu, 18 Aug 2011 16:39:36 +0000

Activision released a new trailer for the Call of Duty: Black Ops Rezurrection that shows gameplay, and the research that is going on over at Call of Duty Zombie Labs. Reasearch conducted over at CODZL explores how to kill zombies in different environments, like the Moon.

CODZL left us this message for all of you to read to get a little more insight into their zombie killing research:

The Call of Duty Zombie Labs has identified you as a genuine authority on the art and science of killing zombies, and we feel our recent research will prove invaluable to you and your audience. We have recently identified a rogue zombie population on the Moon – a horrific population of the angriest undead we’ve seen yet. We have therefore begun battle preparation for Lunar Deployment.

The following video presentation will bring you up to speed on some unconventional tests conducted here recently. The Call of Duty Zombie Labs strives to understand every facet of zombie physiology and psychology in order to help experts like you keep the Zombie onslaught at bay. We believe there are few who are as qualified as you to disseminate this critical information, and help us recruit every die-hard zombie killer out there capable of rising to our biggest challenge yet.

Thank you,

CODZL

Call of Duty: Black Ops Rezurrection is available August 23 on Xbox Live first 1200 MS points.
