Dying Light Delayed to 2015

For those of you that haven't heard of the all new zombie-survival game form Techland, you may want to check up on it.

Wait! I know what you're thinking. "Are you serious? Another zombie game? Isn't the market already flooded with these?"

Well, yes. That is true. However, Dying Light does something that no other zombie game has done. They actually added parkour and free-running into the game to help you avoid the monsters trying to tear away at your flesh.

Unfortunately, Techland, the devs of Dying Light, have delayed the game to February 2015. The game was originally supposed to be released later this year, but Techland decided that there just wasn't enough polish on the game to release it to the public.

This statement was issued by Techland:

"When we started the development of Dying Light, we were committed to innovation. We wanted to give you a freedom of movement unprecedented in open-world games. After many improvements and months of hard work, we have now come so close to realizing our initial vision we feel we cannot stop before it is ready."
"We believe the Natural Movement element of our game will change what you expect from the genre, and we don’t want to sacrifice any of its potential by releasing too early. This quality-focused thinking underlines all our development choices and we hope you share our belief that the gameplay must always come first."
"The new date ensures that we can fully realize our vision of an innovative open-world game. We won’t need to make compromises or trade-offs on any of the five platforms we’re working on. For you, it means an outstanding, original game that makes the wait more than worthwhile."\
