75% off. Lowest ever price I believe. Requires uPlay.
London is falling. Are you prepared? The Last Blight is upon us. It was foretold. For the second time in history, a great plague has shrouded London in a fog of death. Big Ben tolls as thousands of unprepared die, or worse, are infected by a sickness more gruesome than death.
You’re still breathing, for now, but how long will you survive the labyrinth of London’s streets and underground canals, abandoned by the outside world and surrounded by infected? The horrifying remains of humanity, ravaged by the terrifying disease, are shuffling through the streets, waiting at every turn to prey on your living flesh.
The nail-biting survival experience of ZombiU™ has been upgraded for download on next-gen consoles and PC. ZOMBI takes the power of the latest generation of hardware to bring you a new level of horror. Test your will to survive, but beware: death is permanent, and one wrong move can cause you to lose everything.

This is an absolute waste of £3.75 though. Save up your pennies, and buy Dying Light.

If you had asked a nintendo fan, this game was amazing on the wii u. However on other more normal platforms (not shadowed by the nintendo irrationality syndrome) this game is utter garbage.

Fully agree. I was tempted to buy a Wii U for this game, as it looked so good and got such rave reviews.
Played it on the xb1 a few months back and was massively disappointed. Very linear, tiny maps (should definitely have been open world), only about ten zombies (copy/pasted repeatedly, natch), no sense of suspense (you get a permanent radar ping and big red dots on your map for every baddy), poor lighting (it's well lit or it's pitch black - in which case you turn your torch on. If the torch runs low on batteries you just turn it off for a minute to recharge, with zero possibility of being attacked), an annoying inventory system, way too easy (you'll only die when you experiment with explosives and accidentally kill yourself, or when you melee a zombie that's carrying an explosive canister - you don't have to actually worry about zombie attacks), and unforgivably poor impact damage (your first hit on a zombie, irrespective of whether melee or firearm and irrespective of whether you hit him in the head or the ankle, will cause the top right side of his head to take damage, the next few hits do nothing to his appearance, the kill-blow takes him down).
I'm sure if I'd bought it on the Wii U I'd have been extolling it's values, of course. It's fairly normal human nature to defend and justify what we have. As it is, though, the whole experience felt very "last gen" (or older), and I walked away from it when I was, I believe, about two-thirds through the story.
Irrespective of how disappointed with the game I was, I've added heat as it's a great price - even if you don't much like it you'll get a few quid's value from it.

I thoroughly enjoyed my playthrough on the Xbox One. No its not a massive AAA game like Dying Light, but for what it is, it was a fun 12 hours or so of enjoyment. It's been awhile since I've been able to play a game and get the enjoyment I did of this. Yes it has its issues and I'm inclined to agree with the majority of the population its better on the Wii U, but you can get a lot worse for £3.75.

I knew it was going to be bad when it starts with..."they call me the Prepper...know why...because I'm always prepared..."

They broke this games major playing point when they ported it away from the U, perma death, now your granny could strool through this game on any other platform thanks to cloud saving.
Silly Ubisoft.

I have this on Wii U, awesome game. This was the laziest port in history, graphically worse than the Wii U on the XB1 and PS4... worse! Not worth even a quid.
