The premise of the game is pretty much identical to the Xbox360 release; players must travel through increasingly complex levels cutting through hordes of zombies, occasionally locating a key or other object to obtain access to a new area, and felling bosses. The game is controlled via the Wii Remote and Nunchuk, with the Analogue Stick controlling movement, A Button for jumping, C Button to change stance and motion control for those all important sword-swipes.
