Techland has unveiled Dying Light, the Dead Island developer is teaming with Warner Bros Interactive Entertainment on the open world first-person survival horror for both current and next-generation consoles.
The game gives players access to a massive open urban environment where they must scavenge for weapons to use against the growing infected population.
At night, the monsters grow more aggressive and gamers must run and hide to survive. Sundown also heralds the emergence of the most deadly predators.
“We are excited to partner with Techland on Dying Light, which is an original gaming experience for next-generation consoles,” said Kevin Kebodeaux, senior VP, sales and operations at Warner Bros Interactive Entertainment.
“The partnership with Techland allows us to combine their successful development capabilities with Warner Bros Interactive Entertainment’s one-of-a-kind publishing expertise to deliver on this title.”
Paweł Marchewka, CEO of Techland added: “The 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.”
Techland recently announced its first-person fantasy-horror game Hellraid.
Dying Light will arrive on Xbox One, PlayStation 4, Xbox 360, PS3 and PC in 2014.
