Zombie rush+
Zombie rush+ adds new zombie types to Minecraft, with the aim of making zombie encounters harder on Forge for 1.12.2.
What it does
Zombie rush+ introduces a set of new zombie variants, among them a warlock, a zombie knight, a golem, a snow zombie, a miner with a bucket on his head, a necromancer, a king and a cyborg zombie wearing a suicide vest. Each one is meant to make zombie fights more difficult than the vanilla mob. The mod is client and server, so the server and every player need it.
The author recommends running it on a server, because the extra mobs add load and the notes say a mob-heavy machine can lag. Zombie rush+ is published for Forge only, in one game version, 1.12.2, with 1.0.7 as the latest file released on 2026-05-25. It is released under the MIT License and is not open source.
