Techland's parkour zombie game will be making its way to a new platform. Dying Light Platinum Edition has been revealed for the Nintendo Switch, with few further details other than the existence of the port. The game will be released both physically and digitally, though there is currently no solid release date, nor a launch window. Those that purchase the physical edition will get a few trinkets, such as a map, a survival guide, and some stickers. Dying Light originally released in 2015 for last generation consoles, while a sequel is currently in development and planned to launch later this December.

To me this is the best zombie game out there, seriously, give it a try if you haven't.

Let's see how they manage to make it run decently. The PS4/XO had draw distances lower than PC's lowest setting. Then they nerfed the draw distance on PC with an update after the complaints from console players.

Wonder if they'll downgrade it again on PC for Switch.

The only FPS game that I've played and enjoyed. I would highly recommend this game to anyone who's a fan of zombie FPSs like L4D or even Resident Evil. Though, since this is being ported to the Switch of all consoles, I'd wait to see how well it performs or how visually appealing it is.

But was it portable? That's the main draw for these types of releases.

Couldn't give a crap if it could give me a sucky sucky.

Dont want a new console to play old games i already own.

And in a sense yes, i could play it portable and have the superior version on my laptop, or any portable mini pc gaming rig.

But lol to a fan rushing to defend nintendont.

I couldnt give a crap about it been portable, i never play it on a bus or train, im either at home or a mates house where id set it up to a tv.

Well nice, so you are not their target audience, there are people that do all of what you said and perceive this as very good news.
*let me lower my level so you understand* The people that will enjoy this don't give a crap about whatever garbage you own or like.
*ok enough*. No wonder why the Switch is selling like hot pancakes, right?

... the nerve of kids these days

can't wait having to overclock my Switch for a stable framerate on this game

Great game, but with Steam Deck on the horizon, I'm so glad I don't have to worry about buying games like this twice any more. Especially considering it'll launch at $60 on Switch, and I wouldn't get to keep my progress.

wish I could get the Steam Deck before 2023 at this point :\

Just shows "After Q2 2022" for new orders in the US, though. So probably fall-winter?

 

[Skelletonike]

Wow and more old ports.

If only nintendo werent cheap skates and actually made a console rather than a cheap gimmick, we may have had the option to play the newer title rather than a last gen port of a game you can buy for a few quid on the console you already own.

Stupid comment.

You may dislike the Switch, but it is a console.
The reason I like the Switch is it's portability, the fact that we are getting this game, may hint at a possible port of the sequel. Definetly more likely to be released now than it was before.

Is it possible BTZ will be added?

 

[Slluxx]

i hope it doesnt get the same "performance" treatment as the witcher got

Jesus dude. Settle down, Beavis. Pretty hard to be a N fanboy when I've owned practically every console since the Atari 2600. And look, kid, I'm not in the LEAST bit interested in this on the Switch. Why? Because I already own it on superior hardware. But as has already been pointed out to you, we're not the target audience here. I'm not defending the game, I'm defending the choice of others to be happy this is coming and to be able to enjoy it. So you have a laptop or some other portable PC device? Maybe others do not and only have a Switch. Maybe they do have a lap top but don't want to lug the 4-8+ pound thing around? Ever think about any possible scenarios outside of yourself? What's really amusing is that you are being a blowhard for no reason other than being a blowhard. You come off as an entitled little brat and that everything should be made and catered specifically for you and your likes or dislikes. Not for you? Good. Then go away, pipe down, and move on to something that interests you. Pretty easy, at least for most people.

True, but we're still right around half a year away from most of the earliest shipments (mine's Q1 2022). The sooner you put in a reservation the better. For $5 it's risk-free anyway.

 

[YuseiFD]

Oh yeah, more fps drops ! LFG !!!!!!

 

[CoolMe]

Why NOW though? That's one of the early titles for the XO/PS4.. I guess since the 2nd one is due this December, and they know that they can't release it on Switch, so this had to suffice.

blah blah blah.

if you had no interest and then agree you'd rather play it on superior hardware, then why take time to quote me and go against my point that yet again new nintendo console, to play old games yet it lacks the new games.

point been is id rather have the option to play the new games rather than the old games i already own.

couldnt give two fucks if its "portable", problem with nintendont is they always lie and promise better support, yet all this means is the games they lacked on its last gen due to shit hardware, so hello welcome buy our new cheap inferior console and now you can pay full price to buy old titles you already own, or could buy for a fraction of the price were going to charge you.

its funny when those who quote me to defend nintendo, then claim theyre not fanboys, yet your here trying to defend the post of someone making a solid fact that this is yet again another old game been ported.

im entitled to post that its again getting more old ports, if you dont like it, then maybe you need to go away, pipe down as i am not acting like a little brat LOL, gamers want new games for their new system, why buy a new console to play games you already own.

if you dont like whats said, then dont act like a spoiled brat and scroll on.

you cant really quote me out as been wrong, the switch is a port wh0re!!

 

[D34DL1N3R]

blah blah blah.

A week later? Try not to keep crying about this, m'kay? The fact is you didn't just come in and make a generalized innocent statement about Nintendo. You ran your mouth, talked shit, called people retarded (which is a bannable offense) then moved your goal posts to try to turn it into something completely different than your original garbage rant. And fact check for you. You're the spoiled, entitled, brat whining and crying about something other people may enjoy & thinking everything should be catered to you and your likes. You act like someones forcing you to make a purchase. Why not let others enjoy it and pay full price if THEY have no problem with it? Or do you ENJOY crying about it for a fucking week after everyone else was already done with the conversation?

 

[MultiKoopa]

good lord will you two shut up

 

[D34DL1N3R]

good lord will you two shut up

Because your own post is pretty helpful and meaningful? Lmfao. Can't even make this up.
