ExZeus: The Complete Collection is a third-person arcade shooter game ported by Sickhead Games, and published by Ziggurat Interactive. It is a compilation of ExZeus and ExZeus 2 originally developed by HyperDevbox and it was developed using the Unity.

The version of ExZeus in this collection is based on ExZeus Arcade, an updated version of ExZeus originally released for iOS and Android in 2010, and ExZeus 2 is based off the 2017 re-release, which features optional visual effects over the previous 2014 Microsoft Store version and has been carried over into its predecessor for this collection.

Unlike the 2017 re-release of ExZeus, there are no keyboard or controller remapping options in this collection.
