Gamers will need to write the phrases to battle undead

The teams at developer Modern Dream and publisher SEGA are launching a new piece of downloadable content for Typing of the Dead: Overkill, called Football Manager Lexicon Pack, which adds lines from the popular simulation series to the arsenal that players can use to take out zombies.

The update is free and replaces all the lines in the undead-focused experience with commentary that would be best at home on a football stadium.

Because the gameplay relies on players quickly typing the words that appear on the screen, the development team needs to add a number of new lines periodically to keep it interesting for fans.

The developers are saying that they are planning to launch more DLC for Typing of the Dead: Overkill in the coming months and that they are evaluating which high-profile franchise to work with next.
