     The monsters in that game are created in a way similar to how the cordyceps fungus affects ants and other insects, just upscaled to humans. Technically, the people aren't animated dead.

     If TLoU is a zombie game, then 28 Days Later is a zombie movie.

     The hijacking is an interesting angle, and I think there's a good argument that those kinds of scenarios can qualify as zombies. Though now we're kinda meandering into the "zombie alignment chart" a la the Sandwich Alignment Chart, with some purist/neutral/rebel categories.

     I'd say any reanimated dead or living organism that has had its central nervous system highjacked either by a virus, fungus, parasite or brainwashing/frying or demonic power

     Radical Zombie Anarchy? Well, if one of the Purist sides would be that it needed to be a human, the Rebel side could allow for robots. So maybe Radical Zombie Anarchy could be a machine that had its AI taken over by a virus? Or maybe taken over by a human mind uploaded to it?
