Exciting news for fans: A significant update is rolling out this week for a decade-old game, rekindling my interest to complete it after years away.
Let's dive into the juicy details: The Dying Light: Retouched Update is here to breathe new life into one of the best zombie games ever graced our screens, and it's dropping this week, June 26, 2023. Techland is rolling out some major improvements for their 2015 open-world survival horror smash hit that'll make your jaw drop.
First things first, this ain't no ordinary patch, folks. It's the glorious Dying Light: Retouched Update, and its main goal is to polish up the game's visuals and audio without completely remaking it from scratch. You can expect to see an impressive improvement in texture quality, lighting, and physics-based rendering (PBR), all without a massive overhaul.
Techland's been tight-lipped about this update, but they recently spilled the beans and shared the deets in a blog post. The new update brings high-resolution, more detailed textures; better lighting effects to add depth and realism; increased draw distances; and enhanced sound effects. The original composer, Paweł Blaszczak, even remastered the game's soundtrack to give it a fresh retro-tape sound.
Now, you might be wondering why it took so long to roll out the Retouched Update. Techland's technical game director Grzegorz Świstowski explained that it's all about finding the right balance between enhancing the game and maintaining its integrity. They had to ensure that the improvements wouldn't cause any issues with the game's ageing technology or system requirements.
But don't worry, my fellow budget PC players and old-gen console gamers. The Retouched Update is designed to work on systems with modest specs, so you can enjoy its benefits even if you're rocking some last-gen hardware.
So if you thought Dying Light was already amazing, just wait until you get your hands on the Retouched Update. It's like crossing the finish line and getting a shiny trophy—an audiovisual update that makes the game even better than before, completely free!
