Dying Light Review

by on Feb 12, 2015

We take a hard long look at this open world zombie game from the same studio who made Dead Island. Is it fun? Scary? Neither? Find out in our in-depth review.

Dying Light is an open world survival horror game that features a day / night cycle that dramatically changes the playstyle based on the time of day. Developed by Techland, makers of the Dead Island series, Dying Light follows the story of a conflicted GRE contractor who is sent on an mission to recover important top secret data in Harran, a city that's been quarantined after being infected with the Harran Virus. With a mix of an open zombie infested world and parkour, Dying Light offers a somewhat fresh approach to the zombie game genre. 

The game features a complete campaign, along with more side-quests than you could shake a zombie limb at. In addition to the available missions, a "Be the Zombie" mode allows players to invade co-op games and try to take their hand at killing the survivors. With online co-op, plenty of missions, and two large maps to play on, Dying Light has a lot to offer.
