What is “Stupid Never Dies”?

Bite! Rip! Rise!!

Set in a monster-ruled otherworldly dungeon, Stupid Never Dies puts you in control of Davy, a timid zombie living at the very bottom of monster society. Defeat enemies, level up, and collect strange items to grow stronger on your quest to bring Julia, a frozen human girl, back to life.

Steal enemy abilities, customize your undead body with bizarre upgrades, and experience fast-paced combat packed with innovation.

Developed by GPTRACK50, a new studio formed by veteran action game developers, Stupid Never Dies delivers a single-player 3D action RPG experience unlike anything you’ve played before.

A Bizarre Tale of Love and Ruin! Just What Is Davy Fighting For?

In the aftermath of the Great War, humanity teeters on the brink of extinction and monsters rule the land.

At the bottom rung of this society is Davy, a lowly zombie scraping by in a deserted shopping mall. One day, he discovers the human girl Julia frozen to death in a freezer…and falls in love at first sight. Motivated by his newfound crush, Davy finds his purpose in undeath: “Somehow I’m gonna bring her back to life, and then…I’m gonna ask her out!”

In a freak snack-cident, Davy then steals a meal that grants him strange and powerful new abilities. Spurred into action by the eccentric Dr. Frank, who dreams of restoring humanity, and supported by a cast of shady yet endearing allies, Davy sets out for the monster-filled dungeon with his new powers.

Can this lovelorn underdog reclaim the world for humanity, revive Julia, and maybe even get his first girlfriend?!

Funky Zombie Action! Build the Ultimate Underdog!

      • Bite into enemies and steal their powers with Style Eat! – Zombies don’t just fight—they feast! Consume enemies’ cores to steal their abilities and change Davy’s appearance. In addition to Zombie Style, there are 10 more monster combat styles to unlock. Master using all 11 to deal with any and all foes!
      • Modify your body with Body Hack! – Zombies don’t mind sacrificing a limb…or four. Rebuild yourself with Overtech to equip powerful weapons and gear to Davy’s left arm, right arm, legs, and head. A proper loadout of Implants can make the difference between victory and defeat, so choose wisely.
      • Send your stats through the roof with Davy Burst! – Build up this special power by landing attacks and performing feats in combat, then unleash it to overwrite the world with Davy’s imagination while dramatically boosting his stats and abilities!

Featuring an Eclectic Mix of Strange and Savage Foes!

The dungeon is crawling with werewolves, vampires, harpies, lizardmen, and many other classic monsters—all enhanced with Overtech.

Davy will face swarming hordes, airborne attackers, powerful solo fighters, tactically demanding foes, and towering boss monsters!

Monsters of the same species can fight differently depending on their weapons and armor, keeping every battle fresh and unpredictable.

Defeated elite monsters will drop cores for Davy to Style Eat. Cores come in various types and grant different skills when Davy swaps Styles, expanding combat options even further.

An Assortment of Adventurous Allies!

      • Davy – A timid zombie who’s never fought before. Mocked by monsters and humans, he rises for Julia. He’s a normal zombie on the surface, but in the dungeon’s miasma he can move freely.
      • Julia – A college girl who fled to a shopping mall during the Great War, only to perish inside a freezer. She is discovered by a zombie named Davy who wanders into the mall. The moment he sees her frozen form, he falls hopelessly in love. Might a fellow corpse like himself have a chance?!
      • Dr. Frank – A man who calls his intellect “the greatest of all humanity.” He won’t let anything or anyone come between himself and his research. He sets Davy on his path in order to achieve his own goals.
