I can't tell if people actually want co-op zombie FPSes anymore

Normally I'd be psyched to learn that legendary filmmaker and noted gamer John Carpenter is making a co-op zombie FPS called Toxic Commando. The trailer, shown during today's Summer Game Fest stream, looks fun and Saber Interactive definitely knows its way around zombie shooters after 2019's World War Z.

Instead, the announcement of another promising zombie co-op FPS has me worried. The Left 4 Dead fan in me wants this kind of game to succeed so badly, but it doesn't seem like zombies (and the zombie-adjacent "infected," evil sludge, or vampiric cohorts) are really doing it for people anymore.
