A new batch of Season 3 missions are now available to download through the Zombies, Run! app.
This week’s new missions are named “There Is Power In A Union”, “The Milkman Of Human Kindness” and “Into The Light”. As usual, no spoilers, but we’re eager to hear what you think of them!
We’re also releasing a new batch of Radio Mode stories, too. These will be the last Radio Mode stories until Season 4 and you’re definitely going to want to listen through right to the end…
To get access to all previously released missions, you just need to purchase the relevant Pass from the Store. But surely you’ve already done that, right?
While you’re getting those downloaded, you can head over to the Zombies, Run! blog to see an all-new bumper edition of the Community Round-Up as well as our thoughts on the upcoming Apple Watch.
As soon the Apple Watch was revealed, we knew we’d be bringing Zombies, Run! to it. Zombies, Run! is about turning running into an exciting, epic adventure that motivates you to go further and faster than ever before. We think the Apple Watch can make Zombies, Run! more immersive and easier to play, and we’re keen to be there when it launches.
We’re still learning about what developers can do with the Apple Watch, but we’re sure we’ll be able to provide more information and abilities than ever before. And of course we’re also investigating how we can integrate with Android Wear smartwatches in future editions of Zombies, Run! We’re great supporters of the Android ecosystem as well, and we’re proud that Zombies, Run! is already on Google Glass.
Zombies, Run! plus wearable tech: it’s a no braaaainer. Watch this space for more information!
Ready for another selection of Zombies, Run! fan creations? We’ve got another bumper collection of stuff made by members of the Zombies, Run! community.
If you’ve got anything to submit for the next Zombies, Run! community round-up be sure to let me know at jem@sixtostart.com. It can be anything from art to fanfiction to cosplay to… well, anything Zombies, Run! related! We can’t wait to see it.
Tumblr user VictorOlson has sent us a picture of their vision of Runner 5. Not only that, but Victor is logging her Zombies, Run! experience in character over at her blog. She’s pretty early into Season 2, so she’s got a lot of fun to experience yet! Fun and tears…
TheTalkingCrocus on Tumblr wrote an incredible open letter to us here at Six to Start, which you can find over on their blog. Her real-life tale of battling an anxiety disorder with the help of Zombies, Run! really struck a note with us. We’re so thrilled to hear of people using our app to better their lives, whether physically or mentally. Here’s a short excerpt:
I’m in a much better place mentally and physically now than I was when I started Zombies, Run!. Running has helped me to manage my anxiety disorder, has made me much more fit than I ever thought I could be, has turned me into an athlete who runs sometimes just because she’s bored.
Thank you so much for taking the time to write us that note, TheTalkingCrocus. We hope you’ll stick with us and continue to enjoy Zombies, Run! and our other apps in the future!
Zoe and Jack as you’ve never seen them before! TheWonderSmith’s latest painting depicts half of your favourite post-apocalyptic radio hosts. How do these fit with your headcanon?
Lizz from Podcast Detected was nominated for the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge. She accepted heroically and the video above shows her getting completely soaked in the name of charity. We’re happy to see fans doing such good work in our name!
Here’s another new artist joining the fold. Tumblr user Silym is getting back into the game after a prolonged absence, but she returns to us with some artwork depicting the events of Season One mission one. Thanks Silym! We’re looking forward to seeing more from you as you progress through the story.
Crownleys returns with a sketch of Zoe and Lou, as requested by TheWonderSmith. We’re not sure who’s who, so we’ll leave that up to you to decide. Arm your headcanons!
And here Tumblr user MouseCarter42 has produced a painterly sketch of Eugene. Looking pensive and deep, but probably just annoyed at having to listen to Jack’s music collection instead of his own.
Rob Wright sent us this great spooky image of a ghostly Runner 5 and we don’t want to worry anyone but we’ve been having strange nightmares about being lost in the woods ever since… Thanks Rob!
It’s September, which means Summer is on its way out. Back to school, nights drawing in and cooler temperatures – the perfect time to start running again!

If you’re new to Zombies, Run!, you’ll want to pick up Season 2 for only $4.99, which gives you access to a full 60 missions. We highly recommend playing through this before you hit Season 3 (also now $4.99), as you’ll be much better prepared for the story.
For iOS users, Interval Training is great if you fancy a change of pace (har har). It allows you to create custom workouts by combining running, walking and jogging to best suit your level of ability. It’s now only $1.99! You can also get the Season 3 Pass Plus, which combines Season 3 with Interval Training, for 40% off ($5.99).
Meanwhile, the Race Missions are half price at $0.99! These require you to run set distances; they come in two sets of 5km, 10km and 20km missions and give you a first glimpse at life in New Canton. Race Missions are best played between the end of Season 1 and the beginning of Season 2.
Where can I buy them?!1!1
You can buy Season Passes by heading over to the bottom of the Missions tab — they’ll be on sale for just ONE WEEK, until Wednesday 10th September, so get them while they’re hot!
Note: If you already own some passes, like Season 2, we hide the All Access Pass in the app because it wouldn’t be a good value purchase for you.
We’re back into the swing of things now. Here are the latest missions of Zombies, Run! Season 3 (Part Three).
This week’s new missions are named “Welcome Home (Sanitarium)”, “Aquarius” and “Shoot the Runner”. As usual, no spoilers, but we’re eager to hear what you think of them!
To get access to all previously released missions, you just need to purchase the relevant Pass from the Store. But surely you’ve already done that, right?
We created Zombies, Run! to make running more exciting. Running is great, but it’s not the only way to keep fit. Bodyweight exercises like push-ups, jumping jacks, and squats are also essential for improving your health.
Except, like running, they can be super boring. Even the 7 Minute Workout becomes dull after a week — which is why we made Superhero Workout, a new game for iPhone and iPad.
Heroes Aren’t Born. They’re Trained.
In Superhero Workout, you’re pilot of the prototype AEGIS One battlesuit, Earth’s last line of defence against alien invaders. With our motion-tracking technology, your punches become plasma blasts and your abdominal crunches power your suit’s reactor!
Using your device’s front-facing camera, we can track every rep and every calorie of every exercise, allowing us to make a truly interactive workout game perfect for beginners and veterans alike.
20 Epic Missions
You’re the Earth’s last line of defence, fighting the aliens across land, sea, air, and outer space. Lead writer Matt Wieteska is the man behind Zombies, Run! fan favourite Radio Abel, and he brings his trademark humour and heart to the story and characters of Superhero Workout.
12 Rapid Workouts
We’ve taken the classic “7 Minute Workout” formula and supercharged it with bonus fast workouts that focus on different parts of your body. For the adventurous, there’s our Battle Workout mode – a dynamic, motion-controlled endless battle against aliens!
42 Bodyweight Exercises
Push ups and jumping jacks are great, but they can get boring. We’ve added mountain climbers, power squats, punches and more – and even better, none of them require any weights or special equipment!
Apple TV Support
Superhero Workout is optimised for Apple TV, so you can battle on a big screen while your device keeps track of the action.
You can grab Superhero Workout right now from the iTunes App Store for $4.99 (£2.99)!
We’re back! Zombies, Run! Season 3 Part 3 starts today. This is the final part of the season, leading towards the epic finale.
This week’s new missions are named “Interiors”, “Insane in the Brain” and “Love is a Stranger”. As usual, no spoilers, but we’re eager to hear what you think of them!
To get access to all previously released missions, you just need to purchase the relevant Pass from the Store. But surely you’ve already done that, right?
Over on the Zombies, Run! Blog you’ll find our latest Community Round-Up, as well information about our new game, Superhero Workout, which launches today!
It’s time for another Zombies, Run! community round-up? We’ve got some great stuff this month, from some old friends and newcomers alike.
If you’ve got anything to submit for the next Zombies, Run! community round-up be sure to let me know at jem@sixtostart.com. It can be anything from art to fanfiction to cosplay to… well, anything Zombies, Run! related! We can’t wait to see it.
First up, we’ve got another piece by Kasha, aka TheWonderSmith, depicting Runner 6 and Janine. Despite being non-canonical fanservice (and therefore spoiler free), it’s another lovely painting.
Tumblr user llamacorn-productions has put together a Runner 5 cosplay outfit and kindly posted photos on her blog. No word on if she actually plays the game wearing the entire costume, but we’d like to hope so!
Check out the Tumblr post for more pics and detail on how the costume was put together.
Look at this! Tumblr user Bloodyancientbird has gone and created Radio Cabel co-hosts Jack and Eugene in the new Sims 4 Create A Sim demo. These are based on unofficial, semi-agreed upon fan designs of the characters. So if you’re thinking “Whaaaat! Jack and Eugene don’t look like that!” then why not make your own and show us what you think the characters look like.
How’s this for dedication? Tumblr user akinthemiddle has gone and got themselves a Zombies, Run! tattoo! That’s hardcore. The design is a really cool tribute to Runner 5. A really cool, permanent tribute. We’re honoured!
Sam Yao really loves Marmite, isn’t that right neegeecorn? This painting must take place in Sam’s dreams, because we’re pretty sure Marmite jars that size don’t exist. Or has Sam been shrunk down? Either way, this seems like a surefire way to develop a hefty stomach ache. But before then, Sam’ll be in yeast extract heaven.
Remember the clay models of the Zombies, Run! cast sent to us in the community care package in January? It looks like Zalia’s at it again, with a new version of Sam Yao featuring the Radio Abel logo on his hoodie. Clearly he’s a big fan.
Sam’s been on a journey down to London with Zalia as she leads Zombies, Run! panels at Nine Worlds conference and LonCon, featuring writers Naomi Alderman, Rebecca Levene and more.
Check out Zalia’s blog post to see Sam enjoying a pre-apocalypse Costa.
Google Glass review
A review of Zombies, Run! for Google Glass! If you’re lucky enough to own a Google Glass and haven’t tried out the bespoke version of Zombies, Run! we made for it (and why haven’t you!) check out what Tumblr user Hirvimaki says about it.
…And one more thing, something that isn’t from our community!
We’re about to launch our new home exercise game Superhero Workout this month, so check it out for a sneak preview. You can sign up for a newsletter at the website or follow the game on Twitter to stay up to date with all of our announcements!
We’re almost at the end of the second mid-season hiatus for Zombies, Run! 3. The third and final part of Season 3 will be released from August 20th. That’s less than a week away!
There are another seven weeks of content drops left in Season 3, during which we’ll be furnishing you with a total of twenty new missions. That makes Season 3 of Zombies, Run! 60 missions long – longer than two full-length TV show seasons. That’s a lot of zombies!
We hope you’re enjoying the ride and are looking forward to the epic Season 3 finale. Any predictions? Theories? We’d love to hear them!
Zombies, Run! Season 3 Part 2 concludes today with a new batch of missions.
This week’s new missions are named “It’s Raining Again” and “Addicted To Love”. As usual, no spoilers, but we’re eager to hear what you think of them!
This marks the end of Zombies, Run! Season 3 Part 2 but don’t worry, we’ll be back with Part 3 on August 20th. We’ll have another twenty action packed missions which will conclude the story of Season 3. We hope you’re looking forward to it as much as we are!
To get access to all previously released missions, you just need to purchase the relevant Pass from the Store. But surely you’ve already done that, right?
