Zombies, aliens, doggies – if Call of Duty as a franchise has proven anything, it’s that there is no length of ridiculousness it will not go in the name of entertaining gameplay. That being said, Call of Duty: Online, the China-only free to play shooter, has taken things to another level with its Robot Zombies mode. Yes, you heard us right. Zombies that are robots. Or robots that are zombies. One of the two. Maybe both. Check out the trailer above.

But this won’t be a Horde mode like in Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 – Robot Zombies will actually function are more of a self-contained campaign with different characters and other interesting features. We can’t say we’re enthralled by it but at least developer Tencent is putting some actual effort into the whole thing.

What are your thoughts on Robot Zombies? Do you think it will drive demand to finally bring Call of Duty: Online to the West?
