Warner Bros. Announces New Survival Horror Title, Dubbed Dying Light

By Alex Osborn



Warner Bros. Interactive has just announced that a new action-based survival horror title is currently in the works at Techland for both next-gen and current-gen consoles, as well as PC. The game is called Dying Light, and as one might suspect, it features a whole lot of death.

In case you didn't know, Techland is the same studio that brought the world Dead Island, and if you browse the screenshot gallery above, I'm sure you'll see the similarities. It certainly does look pretty thanks to the power of next-gen hardware despite the fact that it features some rather horrifying images.

Paweł Marchewka, the CEO of Techland, spoke to the potential that comes with new hardware, saying that "next-gen technology allows us to create a truly dynamic open world that features a game-changing day-night cycle. Inventive free running mechanics also allow for nearly unrestricted exploration and weapon-crafting to further enhance the action survival experience."

Dying Light is set to launch sometime in 2014.
