‘Dying Light’ Drops Support for PS3, Xbox 360
In news that may be disappointing for some folks, but really isn’t that surprising, Dying Light developer Techland has announced they’re dropping support of last-gen consoles for their upcoming open-world zombie beat ’em up. As we continue to progress into this exciting new generation of gaming consoles, the PS3 and Xbox 360 will only see less love down the road. The only thing I find surprising about this decision is that they didn’t make it sooner, especially after they made a similar move with the upcoming dark fantasy RPG, Hellraid.
Unless you don’t own a PS4, Xbox One or a decent PC or plan on getting one of those things soon, this really is good news.
This move frees them to focus all of their resources into making this ambitious open-world game the best game it can be, without holding any platform(s) back. And with some serious competition coming from the Yager-developed Dead Island 2, this game will need to be great.
Techland broke the news in a Facebook post, saying “after thorough internal testing, we have come to the conclusion that we have no choice but to leave past-gen systems behind and release Dying Light exclusively on the next-gen consoles and PC.” because the aging consoles “couldn’t run the game and stay true to the core vision of Dying Light at the same time.”
Dying Light hits PC, PS4 and Xbox One on January 27, 2015.
Are you watching? Ishana Night Shyamalan has clearly been paying attention to her father, M. Night Shyamalan. Not only is she following in his footsteps as a filmmaker, but she’s also embracing a similar mystique surrounding her work.
The new trailer for her feature directorial debut, The Watchers, gives viewers a taste of what’s in store. AreYouWatching.com has launched with even more clues.
Visit the site to join the mysterious creatures that lurk in the Irish forest as you observe a shelter. From the time the sun sets at 7:30 PM until it rises at 5:55 AM, four strangers — played by Dakota Fanning, Georgina Campbell, Oliver Finnegan, and Olwen Fouere — can be seen trapped inside.
You’ll find several interactive items. Click on the gramophone to set the mood with some spooky music. Tap on the birdcage to hear an ominous message from the parrot inside: “I’m going out, try not to die.” Press on the TV to watch clips from a fake reality show called Lair of Love. And if you tap on the window during the daytime … they’ll tap back.
There are also Easter eggs hidden at specific times. We’ve discovered three: a disorienting shot of Fanning’s character’s car at 5:52 PM, a closer view of the captives at 11:11 PM, and a glimpse of monitors at 12:46 AM. Let us know if you find any more in the comments…
The Watchers opens in theaters on June 14 via New Line Cinema. Ishana Night Shyamalan writes and directs, based on the 2022 novel of the same name by A.M. Shine. M. Night Shyamalan produces.
