The reason World at War does not have zombies for you might be because you haven’t completed the campaign mode solo on any difficulty, which is a prerequisite to unlock the Na-zi Zombies mode, or it could be due to the version of the game you’re playing, as some versions may not include the Zombies mode by default. To access Zombies, you typically need to complete the campaign and then find it under Mission Select, rather than looking for it in the main menu.
