Mother Knows Best When it Comes to How to Survive How to Survive is the latest zombie apocalypse video game to cut a path of destruction through consoles and the Steam service, and right now we have a new trailer for you to check out filled with lots of helpful advice.

From the Press Release
505 Games, a global publisher of video games, announces the availability of How to Survive, a third-person action adventure game that tests players’ ability to stay alive in a world where the outbreak of an unknown virus has turned most of the population into ravenous zombies. How to Survive is available on the Xbox Live online entertainment network for the Xbox 360 games and entertainment system from Microsoft and Windows PC via Steam by Valve® Corporation.

In order to make it through the day and night, gamers must learn to fulfill their most basic needs such as seeking food, water, and shelter as well as finding an incredible variety of items to combine into dozens of handmade tools and weapons – scrap metal, tubes, bolts, fertilizer, tires, harpoons, and empty bottles are just some of the many items scattered about, but how you use them determines whether you wind up dead, alive, or undead.

Developed by Eko Software, How to Survive puts players in the center of the action as someone who, after an accident, finds himself on an island amidst a small archipelago off the coast of Colombia… but there are other inhabitants, many of whom are undead. There is nothing quite like being surrounded by a brain-hungry horde of zombies to get the adrenaline flowing… What will you do? Whom will you trust? How will you survive?

How To Survive is priced at $14.99 for Xbox Live and Steam. A PlayStation® Network version will be available later this fall as will a Wii U™ version via the Nintendo eShop. The game has been rated “M” for Mature by the ESRB.

Even better? Word has come that a patch is coming in December to allow online story co-op!
