In the daytime, the zombies are lax, sluggish, and non-threatening, making daytime the best time for reconnaissance. Dying Light Platinum Edition - Nintendo Switch Direct Capture A Dynamic Day/Night Cycle Bears A Challenge To Those Who Brave It The intent for Dying Light's survival relies on not getting caught, much like Mirror's Edge. ![]() The gameplay reminds me of Mirror's Edge, where if the player attempts to fight, it's an uphill battle. These objects are important to take advantage of in order to avoid the hoards of zombies. The city of Harran is a runner's paradise, complete with fences, houses, highways, and cranes. As I mentioned earlier, rather than focus on gunplay, the player relies on parkour to survive. While its story failed to impress me, Dying Light's gameplay certainly did for several reasons.

The player, instead of using guns, will need to rely on their agility to evade and reach safety. I didn't expect one to be so soon after the mess that was Aragami Shadow Edition.Īs with other zombie games we've looked at in the past, Dying Light is all about survival yet with a unique twist. This wouldn't be the first game from 2015-2016 that would get an inevitable Switch port that I'd play. It has been six years until the Nintendo Switch's release, a sign that gives me red flags. At the time of writing, the original game was released in 2015 on the PC, PS4, and Xbox One, six years ago.
