Media conglomerate Tencent are throwing more money at game studios as part of their never-ending shopping spree. Today the studio behind zombie-smasher Dying Light, Techland, announced that Tencent will become the developer’s majority shareholder.
]]>Zombie video game Dying Light 2 will meet zombie comic-book series The Walking Dead in an upcoming crossover event that will probably involve zombies.
]]>Now that Dying Light 2 has been pushed into the light, developers Techland say they're ramping up development on their next project: an open world fantasy action-RPG. There's no more information about it than that, but Techland are hiring for dozens of roles as they look to "grow in numbers significantly."
]]>Techland have announced that the first story DLC for their parkour-infused survival horror Dying Light 2: Stay Human will slip from its scheduled June launch date to September. The DLC is one of two planned paid story DLCs, with the second not targeted for any specific date outside of Techland’s promised five years of post-launch support for the game.
]]>Dying Light 2 released earlier this month, but that doesn't mean the first game of zombie-parkour-survival no longer has value. Developers Techland don't seem to be abandoning it, either: Dying Light Enhanced Edition is now available via the Epic Games Store, with a sizeable launch discount, and it now has crossplay so owners across Steam, Epic and GOG, whether on Windows, MacOS or Linux, can play co-op together.
]]>Just for a second, as you hit the apex of a particularly audacious jump, the bottom end of Dying Light 2’s audio drops out. It’s as if bass were a grounded concept you’d momentarily left behind - an earthy comfort for mortals. Then the tumble begins, and you’d better have already picked out a nice, safe spot to land. This is the irresistible dichotomy of the parkour game, as first defined by Mirror’s Edge in 2008 - an invitation to soar, with the understanding that true freedom doesn’t come for free. Height is earned, momentum is managed, and mistakes are punished with a 30 foot plunge.
Perhaps you’ve seen footage of Dying Light 2’s rooftop running and wondered, “How much of that is me?” In a medium where climbing systems are typically automated rather than simulated, and first-person control tends to end at the waist, it’s natural to suspect that what you’re seeing is a fancy set of animations, triggered by pointing your character in a given direction and holding down the parkour key. I’m here to tell you that Dying Light 2 is not that game: it’s the real deal. It is, among many other things, Mirror’s Edge.
]]>Dying Light 2 is quite the hardware fiend, hence why enabling DLSS – provided your GPU supports it – is so useful for keeping frame rates up. Sadly, in both the review build I tested and at launch, even the highest quality DLSS setting looked uncharacteristically lower-res. It was still worth using, especially if you fancied clambering over Villedor’s rooftops at 4K or with ray tracing effects, but there was a nagging sense that DLSS can do better. And now it can, for Dying Light 2’s 1.04 update is live, and sharpens Nvidia’s upscaling tech to close that gap between the rendering and native resolutions.
]]>Want to know how to get the best Dying Light 2 ending? Throughout your playthrough of Dying Light 2, there are a number of fateful moments where you must make hard decisions which can influence the ending you receive in the Epilogue. In Techland's newest story there is no clear right or wrong a lot of the time, and it's rarely clear which decisions affect the ending and which do not.
Below we'll walk you through everything that can influence which of the 8 (yes, 8!) Dying Light 2 endings you can get. We'll talk a bit about each of the major choices and what they change in the Epilogue, alongside walkthroughs of how to get the very best and worst endings in the game.
]]>Following the launch of Dying Light 2 on Friday, developers Techland have been working to fix lingering technical issues. Over the weekend they laid out their plans for patching the open-world zombie-masher, with fixes for a number of crashes, issues blocking progress through the story, issues leading to a "death loop" (not that sort) and more. They haven't said when exactly PC patches will hit, but sounds like soon?
]]>Wondering how to get past the Meet The People Of The Bazaar objective in Dying Light 2? Early on in Dying Light 2, while waiting for Hakon to call you, you're tasked with "meeting the people of the Bazaar" as part of the quest, "The Only Way Out". If you're stuck on this early quest section of Techland's colossal action adventure game, don't feel bad: it's stumped a lot of new players who weren't quite sure what the game was asking of them.
Below we'll walk you through a simple solution to getting past the Meet The People Of The Bazaar quest task and onto more interesting Dying Light 2 story quests.
]]>Who should you give the Water Tower to in Dying Light 2? As you might know, Water Towers and Electrical Stations are the two types of facilities in Dying Light 2 which you can take over in order to hand control of a district to either the Survivors or the Peacekeepers. But there's one Water Tower which is far more important than the rest, and that's the one you'll come across in the aptly named "Water Tower" story quest.
Here you must make an important decision: give the Water Tower to the Peacekeepers, or hand it to the Survivors. Below we'll walk you through how each choice affects the rest of your Dying Light 2 playthrough.
]]>Dying Light 2 is out and hoo boy, is it a tough nut to crack. Not in the hours to completion sense, or even difficulty in general – Matthew’s review found a rather unthreatening strain of undead – but in how tricky it is to get running smoothly on PC. That goes double if you want to dolly up this post-apocalypse with some shiny ray tracing features, so even if you’ve got a rig that can breeze through most games, I’d recommend reading on for a guide to Dying Light 2’s best settings.
]]>Want to know a particular safe code in Dying Light 2? Techland do seem rather fond of locking important things like Inhibitors and mission items behind safes, don't they? Explore awhile around the interiors of Villedor and you'll see quite a few safes cropping up here and there.
]]>Want to know how to track down all the Dying Light 2 Inhibitor locations? Dying Light 2 takes a different route to its predecessor when it comes to progressing and upgrading your character. The foundation of Dying Light 2's upgrade system is the Inhibitor - a collectible chemical which Aiden can inject into himself to increase various attributes such as health and stamina, and unlock new abilities to boot.
Below you'll find maps of all the Dying Light 2 Inhibitor locations in each district of the city of Villedor. In this guide you'll also learn how to track down the location of all 126 Inhibitors in Dying Light 2 using two very important Nightrunner tools at your disposal: the GRE Access Key, and (later on) the far more powerful GRE Detector.
]]>Wondering what happens if you save Hakon or leave him to die in Dying Light 2? This is just one of several important choices made in Dying Light 2 which can alter your playthrough experience. Hakon appears very early on in the story, and he helps you quite a lot in the early stages of the game. But is that the whole story?
Find out whether to help Hakon or leave him to die in this quick primer on one of Dying Light 2's early important choices, and what happens when you pick each route.
]]>Can you keep playing Dying Light 2 after the final mission? Dying Light 2 may be a mammoth game, but all things must come to an end eventually. Like many open-world games, Techland warn you that the end is approaching once you reach a certain "point of no return". Once you pass this point, there's no going back. Or is there? The answer is a little more complex than you might think.
Below we'll answer the question of what Dying Light 2's point of no return actually means, and whether you can keep playing the game after finishing the Epilogue.
]]>Want to know how long it'll take to complete Dying Light 2? Perhaps you've already started a playthrough of Techland's incredibly ambitious open world adventure game, but you have no idea how far into the main story you are. Well, this guide is meant to allay your confusions. Below we'll tell you around how long it should take to complete Dying Light 2 under different circumstances, and we'll also give you the full list of all 22 main quests so you can tell how far into the game you've progressed.
]]>Want to learn how to repair weapons in Dying Light 2? Almost all weapons in Dying Light 2 have a set durability. The only exceptions are bows, which last forever. If you're rather taken with a particular melee weapon and you want it to last as long as possible, there are definitely certain steps you can take. And if you want to know whether you can repair weapons: yep, it's definitely possible, although there are certain limitations that you may not like.
Below we'll walk you through how to repair weapons in Dying Light 2, and how to use the Reinforcement mod to extend the lifespan of your weapons as much as possible.
]]>Want to know whether you can switch a weapon's mods around in Dying Light 2? Weapon mods are an important cog in the machine of Dying Light 2's combat. Many weapons have certain mod slots where you can attach mods to give that weapon special crit effects and power attacks, or to increase the weapon's damage, durability, and other important attributes. But once you've installed a mod in a certain slot, you may start to wonder whether that choice is locked in forever, or if you can switch weapon mods at will in Dying Light 2. The answer lies below.
]]>Want to know which Faction to side with in Dying Light 2? Techland's second instalment in the popular zombie parkour adventure series brings you into a three-way war between three Factions in Villedor: the Survivors, the Peacekeepers, and the Renegades. Each of these Factions has their own goals, laws, aims, and ways of life, and there's no right or wrong answer as to which side is good and which is evil. Well, except the Renegades. They're pretty evil.
In this spoiler-free guide we'll walk you through what happens when you side with either the Survivors or the Peacekeepers in Dying Light 2, and the rewards you'll gain for doing so. We'll also go into detail about the backstory and traits of the major Factions in the City.
]]>Want to know whether you can survive chemical areas in Dying Light 2? Chemical areas are swathes of land covered in noxious gas that will kill you within seconds. When you step foot inside, you'll see a hazy poisoned effect coat the screen and a short timer will start. When the timer ticks to 0, you'll lose health rapidly and quickly die. However, if you want to boldly go where no one has gone before, you might be interested to know whether you can enter these chemical areas in Dying Light 2 and survive.
Below, we'll cover everything you need to know about chemical areas in Dying Light 2, so that you know whether you can get past this toxic gas and survive.
]]>Want to know how to get more Infected Trophies in Dying Light 2? Much emphasis is placed on gradually upgrading your blueprints in Dying Light 2, to increase the power and usefulness of all the items you can craft. But while the recipes for each blueprint upgrade differs, almost all of them require various kinds of Infected Trophies. But how do you get your hands on these gnarly loot drops?
Below we'll walk you through the different types of Infected Trophies and the types of enemies that most consistently drop them. We'll also explain how to farm Infected Trophies in Dying Light 2, so you can obtain these otherwise rare upgrade ingredients with ease.
]]>Looking for more Military Tech in Dying Light 2? There are dozens of different resources available to scavenge in Dying Light 2, but few are rarer or more useful than Military Tech, which you'll need if you want to start upgrading the Nightrunner Tools at your disposal. And let me tell you: if you haven't started upgrading those tools, now's the time to start. Below we'll walk you through how to get your hands on Military Tech across the City of Dying Light 2, and how to use it to upgrade your tools.
]]>How do you fast travel in Dying Light 2? It's a pretty common question among new Dying Light 2 players, because the answer is not at all clear - at least, not at first. When you first begin your journey in the massive city of Villedor, it may not even appear to be possible to fast travel anywhere. But rest assured, fast travel is very much a possibility in Dying Light 2 - you just need to complete some tasks in order to unlock fast travel at particular locations.
Below we'll walk you through everything you need to know about fast travel in Dying Light 2, including how to unlock new fast travel points, the limitations of fast travel, and more.
]]>Wondering when you can get your hands on the Paraglider in Dying Light 2? Techland have given players a lovely array of traversal tools to play with in Dying Light 2, designed to be used seamlessly alongside Aiden's impressive parkour skills. One of the most essential tools at your disposal is the Paraglider, which you can activate while in the air to glide for a short time across rooftops. But if you're a new player, you might be wondering exactly how you can get your hands on such a useful and powerful tool.
Below we'll reveal exactly how and when you can unlock the Paraglider in Dying Light 2, along with some words on how you can upgrade the Paraglider's effects later on in the game using the right materials.
]]>Looking for the very best weapons in Dying Light 2? Techland's ambitious open-world zombie parkour-em-up Dying Light 2 gives players many more ways to customise your gear and tools than its predecessor ever did. This extends to the vast array of weapons on offer. Beyond the all-important damage stat, there's a range of things to bear in mind when you're choosing your weapon: does it deal more damage against humans or infected? How many weapon mod slots does it have? How much durability? How long before it becomes obsolete?
Below we'll walk you through the very best weapons we found during our playthroughs of Dying Light 2. These weapons may not stay the strongest in your arsenal forever, but they're sure to be the best of the lot for quite a while. Keep scrolling and we'll also talk about the best weapon attributes and mods to consider using.
]]>Want to know how to activate a windmill in Dying Light 2? Windmills represent important parkour challenges for the player of Dying Light 2, as they must be scaled in order for Aiden to activate them. Doing so will reward you with a cluster of new safe havens nearby, where you can rest, talk to merchants, receive new side-quests, and more. But every windmill is a little different, and scaling them can be fairly tricky if you're not prepared. Learn more about how to activate windmills in Dying Light 2 below.
]]>Want to know when you'll unlock the Grappling Hook in Dying Light 2? The Grappling Hook is one of the most important and powerful parkour tools in Dying Light 2, allowing you to easily cross large gaps and scale tall buildings by swinging from point to point. In Dying Light 1, you could unlock the Grappling Hook simply by progressing far enough down one of the game's skill trees. But if you've had a look at the two Dying Light 2 skill trees, you'll have seen that this all-important tool is missing. So how do you get hold of it?
Below you'll learn exactly when and how you can unlock the Grappling Hook in Dying Light 2. We'll also cover how to upgrade the Grappling Hook to unlock the ability to retract the hook, pulling yourself up towards the ledge you've grappled onto.
]]>Want to know how to save Aitor in Dying Light 2? Dying Light 2 is a game where choices have big consequences. And depending on your playthrough so far, Aitor may be a friend and ally, or someone who wants to put you in a hole. Either way, it's probably a good idea to know how to save him in the titular "Aitor" side-quest which you'll come across once you reach the Central Loop.
Below we'll walk you through Aitor's side-quest in Dying Light 2, and whether to give Aitor the small petals or big petals of the Recluse Herb to save his life.
]]>Want to know if Dying Light 2 has new game plus? Dying Light 2 places a significant focus on choice and consequence, giving you plenty of decisions to make throughout your adventure. When you reach the end of this branching narrative, you’ll probably find yourself eager to start over so that you can experience different paths and see what would happen if you’d made other choices. With that in mind, you might be wondering whether Dying Light 2 has a new game plus mode.
Below, we’ll cover everything you need to know about new game plus in Dying Light 2.
]]>Wondering how to setup Dying Light 2 for multiplayer so you can play coop with your friends? Much like its predecessor, Dying Light 2 gives players a number of options for opening their singleplayer up to multiplayer, so that either friends or strangers can join your game and assist you with your current quests and activities. Thankfully it's very easy to play Dying Light 2 coop. Read on to find out how it all works, and what the Call For Help button actually does.
]]>Can you dual wield in Dying Light 2? There's been a lot of excitement among fans anticipating the release of Dying Light 2 over the fact that some trailers appear to show player character Aiden dual wielding. However, not much actual mention has been made of this seemingly really cool ability, leading to some confusion over whether dual wielding will feature in the released version of Dying Light 2.
]]>No, Dying Light 2 doesn’t take 500 hours to complete. Call it closer to 30 and change, although my map still swarms with chores and requests to deal with post-campaign. Plenty of words have been written about Techland’s backfiring boast of a three week runtime, so no need to relitigate that here. Going in, the only time value I was interested in was how long - if ever - the game takes to sink its teeth into you.
]]>Want to know whether Dying Light 2 has crossplay? After 6 long years, Dying Light 2 is finally here, delivering a fresh story with a new protagonist set 20 years after the original game. While Dying Light 2 is fully playable in singleplayer, many will want to play it in co-op after playing through the original together years ago. However, as crossplay has become increasingly common in recent years and friends might have shifted to other platforms, many might be wondering whether you can team up across platforms to fight the zombie hordes together.
Below, we'll cover everything you need to know about Dying Light 2 crossplay, including whether Dying Light 2 has crossplay, cross-generation multiplayer, or cross-progression.
]]>What DLC has been announced on the Dying Light 2 roadmap? Dying Light 2 is due to release on February 4, 2022, but the developers at Techland have already unveiled an ambitious plan that will see the game receive support and regular updates for at least five years post-launch.
]]>Want to know the exact release time for Dying Light 2? After 6 long years, Dying Light 2 is finally here, taking players back into Techland’s open world zombie parkour adventure. If you’re eager to face off against the undead and survive the night, you might want to stay up and play as soon as Dying Light 2 unlocks. If you want to see when Dying Light 2 unlocks in your region, we’ve got you covered.
Below, we'll cover everything you need to know about the Dying Light 2 release time, as well as whether you can pre-load Dying Light 2 and how much space you'll need for the download.
]]>Over the weekend, Dying Light 2 developers Techland boasted that it would take "500 hours to complete the game". This turned out not to be the exciting selling point they expected for the open-world zombie-mashing parkour-o-shooter. Many found this claim exhausting because oh my god 500 hours is over 20 days, what do you think we do with our lives, and how much of that is busywork? After initially backtracking to clarify that 500 hours is how long it'd take to do absolutely everything, Techland have now explained that you can finish the game's main story in 20 hours, or 80 if you hit every side quest too.
]]>Techland have achieved something incredible. With a single Dying Light 2 marketing Tweet, they caused the greatest mass exhalation seen, perhaps, ever. Thousands of adults were informed that to "fully complete Dying 2: Stay Human, you'll need at least 500 hours" and collectively sighed at their desks, heads in hands. Even some hurried backtracking from Techland's marketing team couldn't save us from exhaustion.
]]>Slipping into a military-controlled ‘dark zone’ to plunder some high-end electrical equipment sounded like an easy job. You could be in and out in minutes, in theory, slinking through the locked-down multi-storey car park with a nice sequence of slides and skids to grab your treasure before vaulting a fence and scampering off. But there’s a problem: the lights are out, down in these concrete depths. The zombies are strong here. Special banshee-like screechers are primed to alert their undead brethren to the presence of any would-be intruders, prompting an unending wave of decaying meat to fling itself at you, all teeth and claws.
So this mission requires more finesse. You need to use all that agility and poise you’ve mastered in Dying Light 2’s impressive parkour 'n' puching open-world city, sure, but you also need to layer more skills on top of that, cherry-picked from the new toolkit Techland has provided.
]]>Dying Light 2, like its predecessor, knows that its setting is as much of a sell as its gameplay. The development team at Techland has moved on from Dying Light’s setting of Harran in a nuclear-powered ‘salt the earth’ parting blow, and has shifted focus to Villedor. You play as a stranger, Aiden, travelling to this once-majestic capital to locate his missing sister, and the second you step foot into its guarded walls you’re faced with a city kitbashed together from pieces of Paris, Berlin, Hamburg, Ostrow and other European landmarks. In Villedor proper – a city that’s been designed by actual town planners and urban designers – you see the scope of what Techland is going for. This is a big game, with some big ideas. It’s not just more of the same Dying Light.
]]>Parkour enthusiasts will need to wait two months longer to prance around an open-world city full of zombies (and zombies-to-be), because Dying Light 2 has been delayed again. Previously due December 7th, and spring 2020 before that, Dying Light 2 is now scheduled to launch on February 4th, 2022. The developers, Techland say they need extra time to make it good, yeah?
]]>Gamescom 2021 is underway, and this evening brought the Xbox showcase stream. You can watch the stream archive in full, but if all you care about is new trailers, then we've gathered them together here.
]]>If you were just dying to know more about zombie parkour 'em up Dying Light 2, then that's great, because developers Techland showed off a new gameplay trailer in their latest "Dying 2 Know" livestream. First thing to note: there is a lot of parkour. Second: the stealth actually looks quite good. And third: you will recognise many of these zombies.
]]>Zombie parkour 'em up Dying Light 2 finally announced its December 7th release date last month during a livestream by developers Techland. They've queued up another of the sort of this Thursday to share more about the sequel. Here's hoping they dive a little deeper than last time.
]]>Many have tried to muscle in on the Nintendo-controlled market of video games, but smaller. And, if the rumours are to be believed, Valve are gearing up to be the latest to give it a go.
]]>As Craig reported earlier this evening, this evening saw Dying Light 2 developers Techland take to Twitch to share new details of the open world zombie parkour 'em up.
The core news of the presentation? That it'll be out on December 7th. There's also a new 8 minute trailer below, which breaks the game down in detail.
]]>If you’re that guy outside my house holding a vigil for Dying Light 2, put the candle down and come in from the rain, your watch is at an end. Techland are finally going to break their silence on the delayed and drama-filled development of their zombie bosher. Something will be revealed at 8pm BST (that's 9pm CEST / 12pm PDT) tonight on Twitch. Plenty of time for you to have a nap and a bit of a shower. Use the fancy soap. You've earned the rose petals.
]]>One year after delaying Dying Light 2—a year filled which quickly filled with reports of 'development hell' and counterclaims that it really is fine, okay, so stop asking—developers Techland now say the zombie-bashing first-person shooter sequel will launch in 2021. This comes a few days after the company admitted they announced the game too early. But this year, for real, yuh huh.
]]>A new report into development practices at Techland contains quotes from staff who allege that mismanagement, indecision, and the use of homophobic slurs has marred ongoing work on Dying Light 2. CEO Pawel Marchewka responded to the allegations at length - but defended hanging a photo of a naked woman next to a cheetah in his office.
]]>Dying Light 2 didn't have much in the way of news to share throughout 2020, but it seems Techland are hoping to change that for 2021. In January 2020, they announced a delay without naming a new release window for their next zombie romp and have been rather quiet since. Although narrative designer Paweł Selinger has now announced his departure from the company, Techland say he's "left a large piece of himself" with Dying Light 2 and that they'll have news about the game to share soon.
]]>Go to hell, Dying Light. Techland's open-world zombie smasher is still cranking out DLC five years after release - and this time, it's trading shamblers for skeletons with a brief excursion to the underworld. Crack open the piggy-bank, get in line for the cursed arcade cabinet, and prepare to crack some skulls, survivors. Dying Light: Hellraid is out today.
]]>The makers of Dying Light 2 have publicly cut ties with writer Chris Avellone following allegations from several women of sexual harrassment, sexual assault, and abusing his industry prestige as a sexual predator. Avellone is known for writing on games including Planescape: Torment and Fallout: New Vegas. Several other upcoming games he was known to have written for, including Bloodlines 2, have clarified they were not currently working with him anyway.
]]>The status of Dying Light 2 has been a bit of a question mark since Techland announced in January that their next zombie parkour action game would be delayed from its "spring 2020" release window without offering a new estimate. A Polish game development news site published a report today suggesting that Dying Light 2 production may be in disarray, but Techland insist that it's "in good shape."
]]>Techland have been at work for a few years on the sequel to their 2015 zombie parkour game. Dying Light 2 was originally planned for a spring 2020 release but the developers have announced today that the sequel will be delayed so that it can meet the "high standards" of Techland and its fans.
]]>Rage, rage against the delaying of the light. I've wanted to write that ever since Dying Light 2 was announced, but developers Techland seem stubbornly on track to zombify early 2020. Look, here's thirty minutes from a middley point in the game, replete with grappling hooks and parkour and decisions. It's the same thirty minutes I already saw and liked at E3.
]]>Dying Light, Brendy will tell you, is the best 7/10 game in existence. I'd tell you that too, and add that it could easily have been more. Perhaps if the plot had been halfway engaging, or if the more interesting second area and grappling hooks (yes, there were grappling hooks) had appeared at some point before the ten hour mark. They're the kind of problems that a sequel could address, through dressing up fundamentally solid melee combat with necromantic bells and whistles. Based on the E3 demo I've seen, Techland appear to be doing just that.
]]>With the Xbox portion of E3 2019 now over, we've got a few new snippets to share regarding Dying Light 2 - developer Techland's follow-up to their 2015 open-world free-running zombie survival hit. The below Dying Light 2 guide will walk you through everything we now know about this high-octane, story-driven sequel, from Dying Light 2 release date info to the newest trailers, information on the story and setting, and much more.
]]>In case you live under a mossy rock, or aren't subscribed to Rock Paper Shotgun on YouTube (if not, why not?), I've got you covered. It's the weekly round-up of everything that happened last week on our channel. We do have our very own video corner on the site, so be sure to check back to that throughout the week to see what we're up to. Last week we gave you a whopping seven videos to watch, so here they are.
]]>It’s time for Gamescom, the yearly show in Germany. There are lots of games here. Too many for a lone operator. We’re going to have to send a whole unit. That’s where you come in, members of the elite RPS podcast. Four of you are going to Cologne. We’ve heard reports of Cyberpunk 2077, Metro Exodus, Biomutant, Dying Light 2, Ape Out, Wolfenstein: Cyberpilot and many more colourful adversaries. You’re going to have to bring your hottest takes. Your objective: a special Gamescom episode of the Electronic Wireless Show. Gear up.
]]>The festival of dumb explosions known as E3 is over, but that won’t stop us. The RPS podcast, the Electronic Wireless Show, goes deep into the show, picking out our favourite games, the oddest moments, and best rats (spoiler: it was the one crushed by a shelf in the Resident Evil 2 trailer). We’re also introducing two new voices this week. Who are these strange people?
]]>A room full of mannequins is rarely a safe place in videogames, but in Dying Light 2 it looks especially unnerving. Welcome to a zombie nest, where dozens of shamblers sleep during the day, huddling together in the shade of an abandoned clothes shop. They sleep upright, like decomposing commuters nodding off in a packed tube carriage. The best thing to do when you enter one of these “dark places” is to stay low, quiet and – oh god they’re awake get out get out leap through the window climb a drainpipe throw yourself through that door get back to the sunlight go go go.
]]>Microsoft had a lot of games to announce at E3 2018, but it's a little murkier this year to find out what was relevant for PC users. Some games were coming to both, others only to their Xbox One consoles. You could of course watch the entire conference right here, but for some there just isn't enough time to wade through the entire show.
Not to worry though, here are all the trailers and news for you in one place. There's a surprising amount of variety in the announced titles: from an old favourite making a return, much celebrated developers showing off their new series, to even a completely free game launching very soon. The games below aren't in any particular order but you're in for a long ride.
]]>More first-person parkour-o-zombiemurder is coming from Techland in Dying Light 2, announced today at E3. Once again, we'll get to leap and fight through (and over) a zombie-infested city, run missions for people, and try to survive. Simply more Dying Light would be grand, but this sounds like it's going ambitious on the story front too, drafting Chris "The Human Stretch Goal" Avellone as a narrative designer and co-writer. He gabbed about the game having decisions with "genuine consequences", where who you help and how will open and close opportunities and change the future of the city, with good and bad effects either way. Get a glimpse of that in the first gameplay demonstration below.
]]>Dying Light seemed to pass by all of my friends and me too, but its first-person zombie parkour has been a big success for developers Techland. Now the studio are working on two new games, one of which seems likely to be Dying Light 2.
