About the Game

Dead Stadium: The Extinction Protocol is a single-player zombie arena shooter where you can fight in first person or third person inside a stadium turned survival zone. Survive escalating waves, collect coffee (cash) from fallen enemies, buy from over 90 upgrades, and push your survivor as far as possible before the stadium takes you down.

This is a fast, wave-based PvE shooter built around movement, positioning, reload timing, weapon choice, upgrade decisions, and surviving the pressure of a growing horde. Every weapon has a role, but once the stadium starts filling with zombies, every missed shot and risky shop decision can matter.

Between waves, spend your cash in the shop to shape your run. Stack damage, attack speed, critical hits, armor, health, lifesteal, movement speed, pickup range, regeneration, luck, and more. With more than 90 upgrades available, each run gives you new ways to build your survivor and chase a better score.

Higher difficulties push the horde harder, faster, and meaner for players who want the stadium to fight back.

Key Features

  • Third-person arena shooter combat built around movement, aiming, reload timing, and positioning

  • Wave-based zombie survival with escalating pressure over time

  • Over 90 upgrades to shape your build between waves

  • Shop system where cash from defeated enemies becomes your path to survival

  • Multiple difficulty levels, from beginner-friendly modes to brutal survival challenges

  • Zombie variants that pressure the player in different ways

  • Physical projectile pistol combat with bullet-time support

  • Cash drops and pickup collection from defeated enemies

  • Controller and keyboard/mouse support

  • Single-player PvE score-chasing survival

  • Stadium-based combat arena that opens up as the run progresses

  • Combat feedback including damage numbers, blood effects, and persistent battlefield chaos

Survive the wave. Spend carefully. Keep moving.

The stadium is already dead. You are just trying not to join it.
