Dying Light Platinum Edition (Nintendo Switch)

Product Information

Dying Light hitting the Nintendo Switch has been a long time coming, especially for those of us that enjoyed the zombie survival title when it was first released in 2015.

Dying Light on the Nintendo Switch, for lack of a better word, had its graphics and visuals "updated" to better fit the compact capabilities of the Nintendo Switch. Moreover, the game also features unique Nintendo Switch™ capabilities, including gyro aiming and motion controls that allow you to swing weapons and fight more efficiently. 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.

A smaller screen often presents problems despite the fact that the Switch has a Dock Mode for the TV. Another change I noted is a reduction in overall zombie numbers, but the full extent of this compromise is a little tricky to define.

So, with a journey to Harran being as captivating today as it was in 2015, there’s no reason why those who love exploring open worlds filled with zombies wouldn’t want to pick this up. Yes, the tank controls are still tricky to get your head around and some hair-pulling inventory management may be more off-putting than the zombies themselves to many, but it's worth bearing in mind that this isn't a modern game. It's like incorrect frame-pacing but slightly different in how it manifests, creating a slightly jerky look to the action.It eventually had a Platinum Edition on PS4 and Xbox One that included all of the DLC; that's the iteration seemingly being ported to Switch.

Sure, the grappling hook might nullify all that effort and grinding, but some abilities in the parkour skill tree are quite nifty. Your weapons aren’t necessarily made of glass but, much like the free-flowing gameplay, you’re encouraged to avoid stagnation and keep moving on to other equipment.On the competitive side, players can choose to ‘Be the Zombie’, jumping into other players’ campaigns to cause them trouble. A single playthrough of Dying Light Platinum Edition will provide fans with over 100 hours of single-player gameplay and countless additional adventures when playing with friends and exploring the world in co-op mode. Some areas seem emptier than expected then, but others - such as the beginning of The Following DLC - seem to be as busy as ever.

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.
