How Dying Light's Survival Elements Can Help Techland's New RPG
Polish studio, Techland, which created Dying Light and the recent Dying Light 2, has announced it is hiring for a new open-world fantasy RPG project. The Dying Light series created a successful formula for its apocalyptic zombie survival setting, which means the new fantasy world can utilize some of those elements while also introducing new ones. As of now, however, it's hard to tell exactly what kind of story or setting it'll receive — and it might evolve — but Techland's past and current development of Dying Light can shed some light on the future.
Techland already confirmed that its new project is going to be set in a brand new world. In the one concept art released so far, it shows a character standing in a vast forest, looking out over ruins of ancient statues and structures. It's safe to say that the image is showing a world that players will eventually explore, but currently, there's no indication of its narrative. Nevertheless, Dying Light and Dying Light 2's somewhat connected stories point toward the kind of world-building that the studio is capable of producing. Using combat and survival skills to defeat hoards of zombie-infected enemies while simultaneously encapsulated in a story set on saving the last standing human-run cities are the games' main themes and objectives. Although the new Techland project won't be in this universe, it certainly can see some elements brought over to it.
