Abstract: Indeed, if it ain't broke, don't fix it; Techland has done little to veer from the tried and true zombie survival story. You play as Kyle Crane, an operative of military relief agency GRE, and quite possibly the most gullible man alive. It falls to you to...

Proper next-gen open-world zombie action, excellent parkour engine, believable and great-looking city environment, decent co-op and player-controlled zombie modes
Humans can be dodgily animated, doesn't always avoid gaming clichés, not particularly original
It's true that Dying Light has no gimmick which would allow it to instantly distinguish itself from all the zombie games that have gone before – but we would argue that it's all the better for that. The parkour engine adds a clever flavour of Assas...
Large open world to explore, Four-player co-op, Day/night cycle keeps things fresh
Hackneyed plot, Prone to glitches
Dying Light isn't revolutionary – it's just fun In the end, Dying Light proves itself a diverting addition to the huge and (ever-increasing) roster of open-world games. Drawing inspiration from Assassin's Creed, Skyrim and the recent Far Cry titles, it m...

Abstract: Dying Light doesn't just resemble Dead Island in its setting or style, it repeats entire gameplay features. The focus on melee weapons is the same. The kick you use to keep the undead at bay is the same. Even the stamina bar, which depletes every time you...
Zombies meet parkour is surprisingly good fun, All the crafting and zombie-bashing of Dead Island, Polished and coherent, Impressive next-gen visuals
Predictable storyline and second-hand characters, Struggles for pace over the long term
It's Dead Island meets The Last of Us meets Far Cry 3 meets Assassin's Creed, but while Dying Light doesn't score highly for originality, it does for parkour thrills and zombie-slaying antics. The pace lags occasionally from time to time, but this is a s...
Should we try to save Harran or let the infestation go unabated? I have a hard time answering that, as my own feeling is to fail to recommend Dying Light . Please understand that failing to recommend a game does not mean it is bad. In this case I just do ...
Unlike Techland's previous titles, Dying Light is an easier game to recommend. Fantastic movement mechanics complement the brutal combat beautifully, and the game on a mechanical level is incredibly engrossing and fun to play. Sadly, there's little else a...
