Dying Light developer Techland plans to “ramp” things up in the zombie game’s next update, hinting that a new “even scarier” night-time experience will make players “sh*t their pants”.
With plans to “pull out all the stops – gameplay mechanics, visual tricks, and audio scares”, director Tymon Smektała says the new “tense experience” will ensure that horror remains a big part of Dying Light’s DNA “moving forward”.
“Horror became a huge part of Dying Light’s DNA so we’ll keep it as a part of the experience moving forward,” Smektała told TheGamer.
“Our next update, planned for early summer, is focused exactly on this – we’re ramping up our night experience, making it even scarier. We hope to create a tense experience that will make our players ‘shit their pants’.
“We plan to pull all the stops – gameplay mechanics, visual tricks, audio scares. Get ready!”
Techland recently marked Dying Light 2’s first anniversary with news that the zombie game franchise has collectively shifted more than 30 million units.
And in case you wondered: yes, Techland has already put the feelers out on a potential Dying Light 3.
