Last week, game developer Techland announced the official worldwide release dates for its upcoming zombie survival game Dying Light.
Although Techland confirmed the North and South American versions of the game's release , the developer also announced a delay for the physical release of the game in other territories.
Now, though, Techland has confirmed all worldwide release dates for the title. The game will see a worldwide digital release for PC on January 27. Digital and physical copies for consoles (PlayStation 4 and Xbox One) will also be available on that date.
For those in Europe, Middle East, Asia and Australia, the Dying Light digital release for consoles is January 28, just a day later. However, physical copies of the game won't be out for another month, on February 27.
Because of the delay in the release dates, Techland is offering free DLC to everyone who pre-ordered physical copies of the game. This includes two packs of DLC: "Cuisine & Cargo" and "Ultimate Survivor Bundle."
However, everyone who purchases the game in any form and at any time gets the "Be the Zombie" multiplayer pack free of charge that lets players control zombies and invade other players' games.
"As you already know, today we detailed our launch timing for Dying Light. Although the changes affect only the release of boxed copies in certain territories, we want to show all of you our appreciation for your continued support," writes Techland in a press release. "Thus, we're really happy to announce that "Be the Zombie" will be available for free to everyone, on all platforms, in all territories."
If you're curious about the "Be The Zombie" multiplayer mode of the game, you can watch some of the Dying Light game developers playing it below.
Dying Light is a first-person shooter survival game that sets the player in a dangerous open world. During daylight hours, you wander around a world devastated by an epidemic, spending the time collecting supplies and making weapons to defeat the zombies that come out at night. The game promises hours of gameplay, as well as hundreds of sidequests and a "vast open world."
