Our First Look At Zombie Studios’ New Survival Horror Game ‘Daylight’
Last month Zombie Studios, the makers of the Saw video games, announced their new project, a new survival horror game called Daylight. It sounds promising, but you could say that about a lot of games. You really can’t begin to get to know a game until you’ve seen it in action, and thanks to this teaser, I can confidently say that this one looks extremely creepy. The atmosphere, visuals, even the subtle movements of your character’s hands — it all looks really good. I’m looking forward to seeing more of it, and hopefully soon.
Daylight launches this spring for the PC.

In the grim darkness of the far future there is only war, but it was a cheerful illustrator from England who helped to define the terrifying war-torn imagery that inspired what we now know as Grimdark (a hybrid genre combining horror with sci-fi/fantasy).
Unfortunately for fans of Warhammer 40,000, Trench Crusade and countless other sources of Grimdark thrills, veteran artist John Blanche passed away this week after struggling with health issues for the past few years.
While the artist retired back in 2023, he leaves us with an enormous legacy of iconic artwork that continues to inspire gamers and storytellers around the world to this very day.
The news is especially gloomy as it was only last year that Daniel Lowman and Napoleon Dynamite himself Jon Heder released The Grim & the Dark: The Search for John Blanche, a documentary following Heder’s exploration of the Grimdark genre culminating in a heartwarming encounter with Blanche in his own home.
Below is one of my favorite pieces by Blanche, his highly influential depiction of Warhammer 40k’s God-Emperor of Mankind on his Golden Throne.
We send our deepest condolences to John Blanche’s family, friends, and fans.
