I had been looking forward to the release of Dying Light for almost an entire year up until January of this year. I deliberately deprived myself of potentially spoiling information. I didn't even watch gameplay because I wanted to be suprised by the experience that I knew would be phenomenal.
You may be thinking that this is just another cheap zombie game, like a rip off of Left 4 Dead or Dead Rising, but this is not the case. With a 3 year production time, Dying Light has achieved what few games have done before; created a truly immersive experience of a zombie outbreak.
The element of Dying Light that makes it stand beyond the rest is it's parkour/free running game mechanic that makes zombies during the daytime nearly no threat at all. But once day turns to night, it's harder to see where you're going, and The Hunter becomes The Hunted. Literally.
Dying Light's exceptional graphics and sound lend much to the games interesting narrative (That I won't spoil here). If you're someone who enjoys hacking and slashing their way through thousands of undead with an arsenal of scavenged and crafted weapons, Dying Light is right for you.
Dying Light is available on Xbox One, PS4, and Steam.
