What do you get when you combine zombies, crafting, fetch quests and parkour? Dying Light that’s what. The zombie-smashing game where you try to survive the apocalypse in the city of Harran was a smash hit for Techland. It’s no surprise that they’ll look to replicate their success with Dying Light: Bad Blood, the franchise’s take on the battle royale genre, which will be on Steam Early Access this September.

Now, games will have up to 12 players simultaneously. The mechanics which were touted then seem to remain unchanged. Players will still need to scavenge for weapons and pick up vials from the infected in order to level up. From there, it turns into The Walking Dead if the show had Rick, Daryl, and Michonne looking to gouge each others’ eyes out. Yes, Dying Light: Bad Blood will emphasize both frantic PvE and cut-throat PvP where your mates might end up backstabbing you in the end. After all, like most battle royale games, only one will be left standing.
