There’s a zombie plague spreading throughout the populace. Mighty super heroes are doing what they can to halt its spread. But as powerful as they may be, they are not immune to the ravages of the virus. Now, heroes that have been turned by the plague are actively trying to spread it as far as they can. They’ve even retained much of their previous personalities, but now twisted in service of the Hunger. Marvel Zombies - A Zombicide Game puts players into the rotting bodies of these tainted heroes. Unlike previous Zombicide iterations, they’re not trying to stop the zombies, but instead spread the plague far and wide. Each hero still retains some of what made them powerful before they became infected, but other heroes that have not yet been turned, plus the members of S.H.I.E.L.D. are trying to stop them. In the end, will all be made to service the Hunger?

A zombie plague is spreading throughout the universe. Even mighty Super Heroes are not immune to its effects, with many more being infected all the time. It’s up to Professor Charles Xavier’s greatest students, the X-Men, to halt the progress of the walking dead and put a stop to the carnage once and for all. In Marvel Zombies – A Zombicide Game: X-Men Resistance, the tables are turned as players take on the role of the X-Men, mutant Super Heroes who are trying to stop the zombie plague. This expansion introduces Hero Mode. Whereas in the core Marvel Zombies – A Zombicide Game, players are trying to spread the zombie disease, here, they take on the role of more traditional Survivors from the Zombicide franchise, fighting against the onslaught of the undead.
