Today, we’re pleased to announce our crossover collaboration with The Walking Dead comics. Celebrating its 20th anniversary later this year, the comic book series has spawned an award-winning TV series (and spin-offs), as well as the critically acclaimed video game series developed by Telltale Games and Skybound Games. The comic’s 193-issue run redefined the post-apocalyptic genre and the franchise has since has become a pop-culture phenomenon!

From quotes to memes, The Walking Dead has truly become part of our culture. That’s exactly why we wanted to have a crossover event with this legendary franchise. Post-apocalyptic worlds left devastated by a horrifying outbreak are our settings, the undead are threats to our characters’ survival (even if the humans we find along the way could be considered more dangerous) and The Walking Dead is a franchise instantly recognizable to our players.

So, what can players expect as part of this crossover? There are two key parts: the event and the bundle. During the event, you will be able to get your hands on some of the most iconic weapons from The Walking Dead universe, starting with the ultimate event reward – Negan’s own barbwired bat, Lucille. To get it, you’ll have to have a thirst for blood that would rival the former leader of the Saviors’. For the community’s efforts, you will be rewarded with Rick’s sheriff hat. All you have to do is collectively kill a hell of a lot of infected!

Additionally, we are introducing daily goals for this event – something not seen before in the game. Each day you will have a set challenge to achieve. The daily rewards will be collectible in-game versions of select covers of The Walking Dead comic book series, but with a small Dying Light 2 Stay Human twist! For collecting all seven covers, you’ll be rewarded with a unique TWD charm. By the way, you can see a few of the comic book covers that were designed for the crossover throughout this post.

But that’s not all. You’ll be able to get your hands on even more items from The Walking Dead universe with our special crossover bundle. Featuring Michonne’s trusty katana, Rick’s sheriff’s deputy outfit and Negan’s knife (together with the blueprint for it), The Walking Dead bundle also contains Lucille, for those who weren’t able to earn her during the event.

Pilgrims will be able to take on The Walking Dead event from July 26 until August 2. Attack your foes with Lucille and crack some infected heads, maybe even a few human ones, too. You’ll just have to channel your inner Negan to do so. Dying Light 2 Stay Human’s Summer of Horrors is starting to heat up. And there’s plenty more crossovers coming. You probably want to know more, but we can’t say anything just yet.

Dying Light 2 Stay Human is available for purchase on Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One.
