The Zombie appears as a replacement for the Possessed in DOOM. Zombies appear as cannon fodder in the game and never become a serious threat for the player.

In-Game Description[]

Codex[]

Possessed by the influence of Hell, once human underlings that follow in Hell's ranks are those that have been corrupted and deceived by its power, forsaking their own humanity. Those who have fully succumbed to Hell's will cannot be saved, becoming mindless, grotesque contortions of their former selves.

Appearance[]

Notable features of the Earth Zombie are the pentagram on its forehead, its elongated fingers, and decrepit appearance. The Hell Zombie has a somewhat similar appearance to the Unwilling from DOOM (2016). The Cultist Zombie is found only in Cultist Base and has the appearance of a zombie you would see in movies like The Walking Dead. A version of the Cultist Zombie is seen wearing red robes and bowing down to a hologram of the Hell Priest. They do not move and do not attempt to attack you and they can be killed with a normal melee punch. They cannot be glory killed but can be chainsawed. If all are killed then you will be rewarded with a Soul Sphere.

Combat Analysis[]

Zombies will do little more than slowly stumble toward the Slayer and attempt to bite/scratch him when within range, but are otherwise helpless. They can be killed very easily.

Zombies are not real threats, and are more of a useful tool than a true enemy. Entire groups of Zombies can be gibbed with a single sticky-bomb, making them useful targets for the flame belch.
