Storyline

Set in a fictional City of the Future in 1959, *Stubbs the Zombie in Rebel Without a Pulse* introduces you to Stubbs—a zombie who’ll break your heart, crack you up, and quite possibly tear you apart all at once. Once a traveling salesman, he now wields your brain like a prized possession in Wideload Games’ debut title. In this game, players step into the shoes of Stubbs, the snarky undead rebel who takes on a hyper-modern metropolis armed only with his decaying body and the weapons of the possessed enemies he turns against themselves. With its over-the-top humor, creative combat, and compelling narrative, *Stubbs the Zombie* delivers gameplay as wild and unpredictable as the character who gives the game its name. Stubbs shambles through a variety of expansive, visually stunning indoor and outdoor settings in and around the gleaming city of Punchbowl, Pennsylvania—a futuristic marvel constructed during the Eisenhower era to showcase the cutting-edge technology of the 21st century. His brain-hungry journey takes him from busy shopping areas and lush farmlands into battles with mad scientists, country militiamen, and the world’s most lethal barbershop quartet. While his foes are armed with shotguns, tanks, and futuristic firepower, all Stubbs has is his rotting frame, an immunity to pain or guilt, and the power to convert enemies into zombie allies. What starts as a quest for vengeance soon erupts into a full-blown war between the living and the dead—but this time, it's the zombie who's fighting for truth, justice, and the chance to win back true love. Yep, it’s also a love story.
