Deadlight is set in an apocalyptic 1986 and centres around Randall Wayne (voiced by Stephen Hughes), a rather paranoid survivor, trying to rejoin his loved ones in a world torn apart by zombies. From the destroyed streets of Seattle, through the crumbled underbelly of the city’s sewers, and the remnants of a forgotten stadium, you’ll search for the haven known as the ‘safe point’.
Through tense platforming and life-threatening zombie encounters, you must choose to use your few bullets to decimate the undead or utilize your surroundings to sneak past them and hide. Combat isn’t always the answer, especially against those known as ‘shadows’, the walking, undead remains of the human race.
Deadlight is released in a new Director’s Cut form on June 21st on PS4, Xbox One and PC/Steam. This new version features superior controls, new animations, full HD 1080p resolution and a brand new game mode: the Survival Arena, which will be one of Randall’s toughest challenges yet.
