The Walking Dead: Saints & Sinners

Saints & Sinners brought VR zombie hell to us in 2020, and 258 peak viewers got to watch us physically flail around fighting walkers in New Orleans. Seven hours of physics-based combat where you actually had to swing melee weapons with your arms, aim pistols with precision, and manage stamina while surrounded by the undead. The hilarity of watching someone in their living room wildly swinging a virtual machete mixed with genuine terror when a walker got close. This was VR horror done right—not jump scares, but the primal dread of managing ammo and health while the dead closed in.
