Dead Wave is a first-person zombie survival horror game where a mysterious radio signal is the only thing standing between you and the end of the world — or the thing that caused it.
Trapped inside a fortified survivor base during the early hours of the outbreak, you play as Jack, a sharp-tongued, exhausted everyman doing his best to stay alive, stay sane, and figure out why the dead started walking the moment a strange UHF transmission hit the airwaves.
Armed with scavenged weapons, improvised tools, and a dangerously sarcastic inner monologue, you’ll explore abandoned facilities, restore failing systems, and fight back against the undead while uncovering the truth behind Dead Wave — a signal that refuses to go silent.
