Dying Light: Bad Blood is a battle royale offshoot of the zombie game Dying Light. Therefore, it also involves disgusting zombies, fast-paced movement, and a plague. The game is now available in early access on Steam. How you can participate in the new battle royale game is explained here.
What is Dying Light: Bad Blood? This new battle royale game deviates from typical genre representatives like PUBG or Fortnite: Battle Royale in several ways:
- Only 12 players compete against each other
- There are murderous zombies as a PvE element
- You can maneuver through the area in a parkour style
- There is almost only brutal melee action, bows and super-rare firearms are the only ranged weapons
- You need to find a blood sample and escape
- The map does not shrink but remains the same size throughout
- At the end you must escape in a helicopter
