Upcoming zombie simulator Quarantine Zone: The Last Check has announced that it has passed the 1 million wishlists milestone ahead of its anticipated release. Fans are clearly interested in the game's novel concept, with a release on Steam currently set for November 2025.
Quarantine Zone: The Last Check appears to provide an interesting blend of a few different genres. In this upcoming zombie game, players will manage a checkpoint in a quarantine zone, scanning all incoming individuals for signs of injury or infection. There are management elements here, too; players are tasked with allocating limited supplies at the checkpoint to determine who should be treated with what. Quarantine Zone: The Last Check boasts "strategic progression" and "intense decision-making" on its Steam store page, and gamers' interest is piqued.
