Meet Edward "Stubbs" Stubblefield in Stubbs the Zombie™ in Rebel without a Pulse™. During the Great Depression, he was a down-on-his-luck traveling salesman. Now it's 1959 and he's a zombie with an insatiable hunger for human brains. How could this happen?

The answer lies buried somewhere in Punchbowl, Pennsylvania, a high-tech "City of the Future" built by the world's richest man. Punchbowl is a paradise of hovercars and helper robots, where crime and pollution simply don't exist. It's the perfect city: safe, clean, and convenient. Stubbs can't wait to move in … and have the last laugh on humanity. Indulge your appetite for vengeance … and brains.

  • Be the zombie: Play as Stubbs the Zombie and conquer the retro-futuristic city of Punchbowl.
  • Possess the living: Use any weapon in the game—machine gun, bazooka, sniper rifle, and more, by clamping your severed hand onto the gunman's head.
  • Build a zombie horde: Convert your enemies into undead allies and lead a zombie assault upon the living.
  • Use your body as a weapon: Hurl gut grenades, spit zombie sputum, and unleash unholy flatulence to bring down your foes.
