Protagonist Karl Fairburne teams with Russian soldier Boris Medvedev, German scientist Dr. Efram Schwaiger, and Wehrmacht officer Hermann Wolff to battle undead Nazi hordes in a period-accurate Berlin setting. The game features no gender, race, or sexuality swaps, no character creation options, and no foregrounded identities of any kind, allowing the narrative to remain centered on sniping mechanics, X-ray kill cams, and co-op survival against the zombie outbreak unleashed by Hitler. The premise contains zero thematic engagement with identity politics, systemic issues, or representation mandates, with alliances forming solely around fighting the undead rather than any social commentary.

Developer statements and narrative elements are entirely absent on topics like patriarchy or DEI, resulting in a straightforward historical zombie apocalypse experience that prioritizes gameplay over any activist framing. This approach keeps the focus on period-appropriate military action and horde survival without injecting modern ideological elements.
