Dying Light: Techland Caught Hiring Steve the Zombie

October 30, 2014 by Stephen Daly

Shaun of the Dead did it first.

It seems zombies can participate in the labour market just like the rest of us, with Dying Light developer Techland hiring Steve the zombie as their consultant on the living dead. 

Steve 's face was scanned into the game to make the most realistic zombies ever, and he also provided the sound effects for his brethren. Techland's first undead employee also inspired the game's more power night-time zombies given his increased passion for work after dark.

It's not all fun and games having a zombie on the team however, with one Techland employee telling us "The biting is the first thing that gets annoying very very quickly." Steve also has the stench of rotting flesh about him, which is particularly troublesome on hot days. 

Still, he hasn't killed anyone yet which is a definite plus.

Dying Light is set for release on January 27th for PC, PS4, and Xbox One. The PS3 and Xbox 360 versions of the game were recently cancelled.
