“Dying Lightwas such a blast. I played the game with a friend. Drop-kicking zombies were the best. And I don’t think I’ve ever been as scared as seeing my first Volatile,” said a reminiscent Kostoi. “Dying Lightis tons of goofy fun. I tried Projectzomboid once, the multiplayer update dropped and I don’t know if it’ll ever be topped,” responded a joyous SlyyKozlov. “Highly recommend. Best zombie game I’ve ever played bar-none.”

Dying Lightis available now on PC, PlayStation, Xbox and Nintendo Switch.
