Indie game developer EXOR Studios has announced their first title today, and they really, really hope you're not tired of the over saturation of zombie games that have been hitting the market. Their title, Zombie Driver, is a top-down driving game with a twist: it takes place in a city infested with several varieties of bloodthirsty zombies. It's open-world, too, so there's plenty of undead to find and kill. Well, re-kill, I suppose, since, you know, already dead and all. The game's six different cars can be mounted with different upgrades and weapons, which the developers say can "transform even an innocent Taxi into a Chariot of Death." It doesn't look like there's multiplayer, but this is just the announcement, there's plenty of time to drop that bomb and create something really, really cool.

The press release and a few more images are below, and we've contacted the developer to see if we can't get more information on the title. Namely, when it's going to be out on Xbox Live and PlayStation Network.

UPDATE: They responded, and while they can't confirm anything, they said they "are actively moving towards releasing the game on the console platforms after the PC release."
