Counter-Strike: Global Offensive is treading a well-worn path in the shooter genre, with the announcement of a zombie mod for the game. Yes, if you haven't gotten your fill of knocking off zombies by the truckload yet, you'll be able to take down some undead when CS:GO launches tomorrow.

The Counter-Strike blog gives word that Valve has been working with the modders at Plaguefest to produce a mod for the game, and it will be ready in time for launch. It promises many more mods to come in the months ahead, too.

Obviously this news relates to the PC version, but the game is due for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 this week too. If you grab it through the PSN Play promotion and have a PlayStation Plus membership, you can get a 20% discount. Check out the latest trailer below.

        CS aiming with headshot-only zombies would be cool.

        Because the CS version was always far different from L4D in both mechanics and feel. L4D is a complete stand alone game while ZM_ is more basic sandbox zerg fest. They aren't really comparable.

      The worst thing about current CS Zombie Mods is unlimited ammo & reload. Makes the matches so fucking boring.

        I always was fine with unlimited ammo. But reload should stay in. It provides a window of opportunity and actually forces the CT to be somewhat aware.

      I know Valve is awesome. I know that they made two L4D games. I know they have mods of mods of mods.

      But I wonder if they started work on this mod before or after Day Z became popular.
