If you've been waiting for the new parkour/survival horror game from the folks that brought you Dead Island, I have some potentially upsetting news for you.
It will not be coming to last gen consoles only current gen.
When asked why, the devs simply said neither the PS3 or Xbox 360 could run the game. So good news if you own a current gen console, it appears the game will be more gorgeous than previously thought.
On that note, the price of the Xbox One had dropped to $350, so if you wanted to play Dying Light, you can still play it at a fraction of the cost.
Remember a year or so ago when we were shown a trailer of a group of people parkour-ing it all over the place while evading zombies, and in the end, that group became one guy who was than bashed in the skull with a rock or something? Well, that was Dying Light, Techland's newest game (makers of Call of Juarez and Dead Island, as well as others).
In case you STILL don't remember, Dying Light is an open world, zombie survival game (Dead Island like) where you, the player, must scavenge supplies and other goodies while fending off zombies.
"No problem." You say? Well, at night, the scarce zombies become hordes, giant groups of nasty, ravenous flesh rippers. Think Dead Rising type hordes. Do you have what it takes to survive until dawn?
In case you need a refresher, here is the teaser trailer.
And here is their new trailer, to build the hype.
Want those release dates now? January 27th for USA, January 28th for Australia and New Zealand, and January 30th for Europe and Asia on Xbox 360, Xbox One, PS3, PS4 and PC.
Dying Light is currently available for pre-order. If you secure your copy early, you will be granted access to a free DLC mode called "Be the Zombie", allowing you to invade other players' games as a super-agile "Night Hunter".
