Zombie

One of the first enemies the player meets, and the most resilient to attacks, these enemies are seen in many areas and can be deadly if encountered in large numbers. It appears to have crystalline structures or small plants on its back and body.

In previous versions of Dead Cells, this model was recolored pink for Grenadiers, and is currently recolored for both Running Zombie and Host Zombies.

Its two attacks are a scratching attack that it deals when the player is close, and a lunging attack when the player is out of range of its scratch. Both can be dodged, and the lunge attack can even be crouched under if you're in the center of the path it jumps. It can't jump to other platforms using its lunge, and simply stops when it encounters the boundary. Elite Zombies have no attack changes made to them, but attack faster and are even harder than usual to stun.
