The outbreak was caused by a mysterious virus that turns humans into zombies, and the staff of a maid cafe, wielding heavy firearms, is tasked with restoring peace.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Gameplay consists of fighting the zombie swarms that come for you. As you level up, you will unlock new skills at random, such as being able to fire missiles and control drones. Recruiting \u201cstray maids\u201d to your team and training them to help you fight zombies is also a big part of Maid of the Dead\u2019s gameplay. This is done by shooting \u201cUnity Bullets\u201d at maids undergoing zombification and using points earned in-game to level them up with items.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" src=\"https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/20240228-27810-001jpg-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-27815\" srcset=\"https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/20240228-27810-001jpg-1.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/20240228-27810-001jpg-1-380x214.jpg 380w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/20240228-27810-001jpg-1-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/20240228-27810-001jpg-1-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/20240228-27810-001jpg-1-600x338.jpg 600w\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Maid of The Dead comes with a mature content warning.
