If you're looking for an exceptional zombie survival experience, Dying Light and its expansion, The Following, are absolute must-plays. The base game masterfully combines fluid, first-person parkour with brutal, satisfying melee combat in the sprawling city of Harran. The dynamic day-night cycle adds incredible tension, as the infected become terrifyingly aggressive after dark. The Following takes everything that made the original great and expands on it by introducing a massive new countryside map and fully customizable dune buggies, which completely changes how you traverse the world and fight the undead. Whether you're drop-kicking zombies off rooftops in the city or mowing them down in your buggy in the countryside, the gameplay remains endlessly thrilling. Both offer a fantastic co-op experience that only amplifies the fun. Why Dying Light Shines * The Parkour System The first-person free-running mechanics are incredibly fluid, allowing you to scale buildings, leap across rooftops, and escape the horde with ease. * The Day-Night Cycle Daytime lets you scavenge and explore with relative safety, but nightfall brings out the Volatiles—fast, deadly predators that turn the game into a tense survival horror experience. * Brutal Combat With a deep crafting system, you can create a vast array of modified melee weapons to shock, burn, and bludgeon your way through the infected. What The Following Adds * A Massive New Map The expansion moves away from the dense city to a sprawling countryside that is larger than the original game's maps combined. * Customizable Buggies You get to build and upgrade your own dirt buggy, complete with weapons and unique paint jobs, turning driving into a core part of the gameplay loop. * A Compelling Narrative It provides a fresh storyline that delves deeper into the mystery of the virus and offers a definitive, unforgettable ending to Kyle Crane's journey.
Ah, Dying Light... For many of us, this game was part of the golden years of our youth, when every evening on console or PC felt like a real struggle for survival in a post-apocalyptic world. Released in 2015, it forever changed the way we saw zombie games, combining insane parkour with brutal close-quarters combat in an open world. Harran and the atmosphere The fictional Middle Eastern city of Harran, with its narrow streets, slums, and towering rooftops, is something many of us will never forget. During the day, it was a beautiful but dangerous playground filled with raiders and the occasional infected, but everything changed when night fell. The sound of the siren and the words "Night is coming, you need to find shelter" still give me chills. Going outside after dark turned into a paranoid nightmare, with Volatiles chasing you through the streets. Parkour as a revolution Before Dying Light, first-person movement often felt clunky. Here, parkour gave you an incredible sense of freedom: every ledge, rope, and rooftop became part of the action. And once you finally got that long-awaited grappling hook, moving around the map became pure superhero-level fun. Weapons and crafting The survival system made you pick up practically every pipe, wrench, or piece of rebar you could find. Homemade weapons would break at the worst possible moment, forcing you to improvise. And legendary blueprints, like electric blades or the burning fireplace poker that set zombies on fire, made clearing the streets genuinely spectacular. Nostalgia and emotions The story of Kyle Crane, Brecken, Rais, and the survivors of the Tower is remembered with warmth. It was a game about overcoming fear, team spirit in co-op, and unforgettable jumps across rooftops while the infected screamed below.
One of the best games of all time, and the best game in its genre. Everybody must at least complete the story mode in their life!
