Dying Light is free for the weekend, so give it a shot before The Beast arrives

Dying Light is one of the most compelling takes on the zombie videogame to date. Although it doesn't feature the deep simulation systems of Project Zomboid or State of Decay 2, its concentration on Dead Rising-style weapon crafting and Mirror's Edge-reminiscent parkour makes its action-heavy focus remarkable. Before Dying Light: The Beast, the latest instalment in the series, comes out next month, now's the perfect time to play the first game, especially as it's currently available with a steep discount and as a free trial this weekend on Steam.
