Zombie

Zombies are one of the first enemies the player encounters. They function as a basic melee attacker and are one of the more resilient enemies that the player will encounter early on.

Behavior
Zombies will always use its scratch attack if the player is in melee range or lunge at the player if they are not within melee range.

Strategy
Zombies are the most basic enemies in Dead Cells. Their limited movement and range makes them easy to dispatch, but they can be dangerous if you let yourself get surrounded.

Simply rolling behind them and attacking is an effective way to avoid danger. If there are multiple enemies, run behind the zombie and deal with the more aggressive enemies first.

Trivia

 * In early versions of Dead Cells, the Zombie model was recolored for Grenadiers, Purulent Zombies, Elite Lieutenants, and Running Zombies.
