The fight for survival in a living dead world will continue on Syfy, as the network has officially renewed Z Nation for a fourth season.

News of Z Nation's renewal comes from The Hollywood Reporter. There's no word yet on when season 4 will premiere or how many episodes the new season will consist of, but the show's seasons have always premiered in mid-September, with the number of episodes ranging from 13–15 per season.

The season 3 finale of Z Nation airs later this month on Friday, December 16th. Stay tuned to Daily Dead for more updates, and in case you missed it, check out a preview video from the 12th episode of season 3, "The Siege of Murphytown."

"Z NATION follows a team of everyday heroes during their epic struggle to save humanity following a zombie apocalypse. After discovering their mission to bring Murphy (Keith Allan, “Rise of the Zombies”), the only known survivor of the zombie plague, to a viral lab took an unexpected turn, the team is now split on the future of mankind. Murphy wants to create a race of human-zombie “blends,” while the gang, led by Lieutenant Warren (Kellita Smith, “The Bernie Mac Show”) are determined to stop him at all costs."
