Dying Light Platinum Edition (Nintendo Switch)

Product Information

Experience the thrill of driving across Harran in your customizable buggy, surviving Bozak’s trials, and slaughtering zombies with exclusive weapons and outfits. Since he moves around a lot through parkour and gets swarmed by zombies on the regular, having some Rumble Vibration feedback is a huge difference in gameplay feel. As such, many new players might find themselves in unfavorable situations as they try to fend for themselves in the game's zombie-infested locales. I am probably about 10 hours in and still get shocked by how good it runs and looks when I'm comparing it to what I remember of the PS4 version.

Once in the open world, it's more noticeable that distant detail and dynamic lights are pared back, producing a pop-in effect much closer to the player. Between the comics and the series, the franchise has long held the genre in the palm of its decaying hand. The game itself is janky and suffers with some performance issues it is true, but the fun that can be had with this one makes its shortcomings easy to overlook. Crafting is such an integral part of Dying Light that players can quickly run out of materials as they replace each missing medkit or repair their favorite weapons. playing, outer worlds, or witcher 3 and crysis remastered you deal with very blurry gameplay which can be difficult at times because in crysis you literally can't see where anyone is unless they are right in front of you.

Usually, when comparing Switch ports to other more powerful machines, the resulting image is blurry and obviously of a much lower resolution but Dying Light really does compare more favourably than usual. Therefore, it’s no surprise that Techland’s Dying Light pulls me in, quenching my horror needs quite well. Not only are bullets extremely hard to find, but firing off any shots runs the risk of attracting the attention of zombies who are much more difficult to shake by just hopping over a fence. Initially, night in Dying Light only seems so dangerous because of all the sounds and the escalated enemy types.

Newcomers to the series who care about graphics and don't plan on using handheld mode, though, might appreciate the added detail and performance upgrade of the PS4, Xbox One or PC versions of the game. Plus, it minimizes the need for looting too much outside which is important in saving daylight time.Only the brave, and by brave, I mean stupid, run around the city at night, though you’re rewarded for your recklessness with double XP. It even had a graphical upgrade, gyro aim, extra chapter and modes, all added post release, and the extra chapter has a very unique part as well, in complete darkness, where only 1 player has a light, the other 3 don't. This is yet another port that feels like it shouldn't work on the Switch, but actually runs remarkably well. The world is absolutely packed full of zombies, making it a genre entry unlike any other on the console.
