News Why Has PS4's Dying Light Been Removed from the European PlayStation Store?
Missing in action
Between cancellations and last-minute delays, Dying Light hasn't exactly had the smoothest run up to release – but our reviews round-up is filled with messages from disgruntled gamers, asking why the title has been removed from the European PlayStation Store. Well, it seems like there have been some crossed wires between...
News Even Dying Light Couldn't Resist a Cheeky Destiny Jab
Easy pickings
Destiny is a decent game, but as one of the most hyped titles of 2014, it has come under fire for some of its flaws. Dying Light, the brand new undead-'em-up from Polish developer Techland, is just the latest title to poke fun at Bungie's first-person shooter, including a loot cave based upon the famous grotto from last year's sci-fi...
Round Up Dying Light's PS4 Reviews Try Not to Decay
Rotten to the core?
You may have noticed that there are a real dearth of Dying Light reviews around the web. This is because Warner Bros didn't send anyone review code until earlier in the week, and we only received our copies this morning. While you're free to make of that what you will, a few appraisals are starting to pop up, so seeing as this is...
News This Dying Light Launch Trailer Will Sell a Lot of Copies
Dead good timing
Warner Bros may live to regret that retail Dying Light delay outside of North America, because this launch trailer is a software seller for sure. We've got a few question marks hanging over the release right now, purely because we haven't been able to get hold of any review code yet (and apparently we're not alone) – but this clip...
News Dying Light's Retail Release Will Not Deploy Until 27th February in Europe on PS4
Rotten to the core
Dying Light's bizarre delay in Europe, Australia, Asia, and the Middle East looks like it could be a big one, as Polish website Polygamia.pl is reporting that the PlayStation 4 game will not deploy until 27th February on store shelves. The title had been set to release next week, and still will digitally – but those of you...
News This Dying Light PS4 Disc Delay Is Starting to Get Awkward
Good night, good luck
With respect to all of the parties involved, Polish developer Techland probably thought that it was trading up when it dumped Deep Silver for Warner Bros. The former has grown a lot since it hung its hat on the Dead Island brand, but its army of IPs – even with Homefront, Saints Row, and Metro added to its stable – can't...
News Dying Light's PS4 Retail Release Delayed Due to Production Problems
Stumbles in Europe, Australia, and others
The curse of 2014 shuffles on, as physical copies of Dying Light have been delayed in Europe, Australia, Asia, Africa, and the Middle East. Speculation was rife yesterday regarding a global setback, but we couldn't sniff out a firm source. Fortunately, a spokesperson on Facebook has explained that this only...
News Take a Tour of Dying Light's Dilapidated Map on PS4
To die for
Dying Light is easily the biggest game set to deploy on the PlayStation 4 this month – sorry, Resident Evil – so we figured that you may fancy a sneaky peek at its corpse ridden map. The rotting playground known as Harran may not be enormous, but this brand new PlayStation Access video shows off some of its districts, from a smelly...
News Fight the Dying Light with New Book Based on Techland's PS4 Game
Reader beware
Transmedia storytelling always seems forced, but there's just enough plot in properties like Mass Effect and The Elder Scrolls to make it work. Polish developer Techland isn't exactly best known for its storytelling, but that hasn't stopped Warner Bros from going all-in and commissioning a novel based on its forthcoming parkour-'em-up,...
Weirdness What Would PS4 Parkour-'Em-Up Dying Light Look Like in Real Life?
Not pretty
PlayStation 4 zombie sim Dying Light is quickly approaching, and in order to drum up hype, developer Techland has been releasing a new trailer every other day. Obviously we haven't been posting all of them, but this latest clip absolutely deserves a mention, if only becau
News What's It Like to Be a Zombie in PS4 Undead-a-Thon Dying Light?
Probably smelly
Being a zombie doesn't sound all that great. In addition to the constant pangs of hunger, you'd have to contend with rotten, flaky skin – and probably wouldn't have the mental fortitude required to whip out some moisturiser cream. Still, the 'Be a Zombie' pre-order bonus mode for Dying Light makes the whole thing look a lot more...
News Need a New Year's Resolution? PS4 Zombie Sim Dying Light Has Some Suggestions
A brand new day
If you haven't been paying attention, it's a new year, which means that it's also time for a slew of starry-eyed but ultimately unrealistic resolutions. Most people go for the usual suspects – fitness, work promotions, gaming backlog reductions – but this gory new trailer for PlayStation 4 zombie sim Dying Light recommends a much...
News PS4 Zombie Sim Dying Light Will Raise the Dead in 1080p at 30FPS
Silky smooth undead sparring
Dying Light, the open world zombie sim coming to the PlayStation 4 next year, will be rendered in 1080p and will run at 30 frames-per-second, developer Techland has recently announced. “1080p and 30FPS is what we have right now, it is what is constant, and what we’re sure that we can deliver in the final product, but...
News Dying Light's New Story Trailer Is Brash, Brooding, and Beautiful
Heart of darkness
If the trailer Techland revealed for Dying Light at The Game Awards today teaches us anything, it's that the game is attempting to tell a much more mature story. Indeed, the clip begins with a hifalutin quote from famed philosopher and playwright Albert Camus, who would undoubtedly turn in his grave if he knew that his work was bei
First Impressions What Does Dying Light Do to Resurrect the Zombie Apocalypse on PS4?
The freewheelin' mob killing
Dying Light finds itself in an odd position. With its last-gen version recently cancelled, and developer Techland touting a renewed focus on fluidity and polish, the parkour-‘em-up’s future feels slightly unclear. We recently went hands on with the title at PAX Australia, and – after being ushered
News Wait, Did Techland Just Cancel the PS3 Version of Dying Light?
Next-gen only
Dying Light developer Techland has announced that the parkour-'em-up will no longer be shambling onto the PlayStation 3. The studio stated that it wants to focus on making a game which truly encapsulates the 'next-gen feel', and cited the technical limitations of the older hardware as the main reason for the reversal. "Much of this...
News Zombie Apocalypse Sim Dying Light Lumbers onto PS4 and PS3 in January
Brainsss
In theory, Dying Light should be a fantastic game. It takes endless zombie hordes and combines them with Mirror's Edge-esque parkour mechanics. However, the game is being developed by Techland – the studio behind the thoroughly ordinary Dead Island series – so we're reserving our judgement for the time being. At any rate, the open...

News PS4 Parkour-'Em-Up Dying Light Shines in New Trailer
Good night
Techland has released a new trailer showcasing its upcoming zombie survival game Dying Light. The title aims to explore a more harrowing undead epidemic, as its monstrous hordes are the result of a common disease like flu or pneumonia. You'll take control of an athletic protagonist from a first-person perspective, free-running Mirror's...
