The video game adaptation of the Netflix series The Last Kids on Earth brings a more kid-friendly zombie apocalypse to PC and consoles

When it comes to zombies, video games tend to lean in a decidedly non-kid-friendly direction, with Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War’s Zombies mode being the most recent example. Luckily, anyone interested in a more lighthearted zombie apocalypsecan now get their hands on one, as an action-adventure game based on the TV show The Last Kids on Earth is currently free to play on Xbox Game Pass.

The Last Kids on Earth and the Staff of Doom is a collaboration between publisher Outright Games, developer Stage Clear Studios, and Atomic Cartoons, the studio behind the animated Netflix series. The companies announced that the game would be released sometime this spring of 2021for PC, PS4, Switch, and Xbox One. It is also playable on the PS5 and Xbox Series X as well, though the wording in the press release suggested it won’t receive dedicated next-gen ports.

Featuring a brand new story, the game lets fans play as the show’s heroic team of young survivors as they search for the missing pieces of the titular Staff of Doom in order to prevent the summoning of Rezzoch the Ancient, Destructor of Worlds. Up to four players are able to explore “massive levels” and fight hordes of zombies and monsters in both local and online co-op. Furthermore, the game features the original voice cast from the Netflix series reprising their roles.

The Last Kids on Earth has become rather popular as a franchise, with the original book series by Max Brallier selling over 5 million copies, while the Netflix adaptation recently aired its third season. So they’ll be plenty of fans looking forward to an interactive take on its monster-filled world.

The Last Kids on Earth and the Staff of Doom launch in spring 2021 for PC, PS4, PS5, Switch, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X.
