‘Dying Light’ Has a Secret ‘Mario’ Level and it’s Magical
I’ve noticed a few nods to other games while roaming about the city of Harran, jumping and climbing literally everything in a desperate attempt to get my Agility level caught up with my other skills, but none have been quite as mesmerizing as this secret Super Mario level. This hidden gem was spotted by YouTuber Arekkz Gaming, who was kind enough to share its location in the video below.
The next time you boot up Dying Light, I suggest taking some time off from your current quest to seek this Easter Egg out. It’s worth it.
Dying Light is available now on PC, PS4 and Xbox One.

Legendary Grimdark ‘Warhammer 40,000’ Artist John Blanche Has Passed Away at 78
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.
