With the Vampire: The Masquerade occasion dwell in-game proper now, my undead Kindred coronary heart is aflutter with pleasure – particularly once I keep in mind that there’s a For Honor collab within the works, too. Chatting with PCGamesN solely concerning the new VTM collab, I ask franchise director Tymon Smektała which different IPs he’d wish to staff up with – and the solutions will pique anybody’s curiosity.

Whereas the Dying Light 2 VTM crossover is all I’ve ever wanted, Smektała has a couple of concepts about future collaborations that might take the zombie game to a complete new degree – and I actually imply, complete new degree.

“Apart from that we have already got a really, very thrilling collaboration with Ubisoft on For Honor, so I hope we’ll be capable to double this up at some point with Murderer’s Creed.”

That’s not all, although, as a result of whereas these new PC games are shiny and thrilling, Smektała additionally desires to provide Dying Mild followers a blast from the previous by going again to the foundation of all trendy parkour adventures.

“I’d additionally like to honor the granddaddy of FPP parkour games – Mirror’s Edge – giving our gamers an opportunity to play as Religion,” he says, and of all of the examples he provides, that is the one which has me essentially the most excited. I grew up enjoying Mirror’s Edge, utilizing eyeliner to color Religion’s iconic eye tattoo as a result of I assumed she was so cool. Not solely that, each constructing I went into is how I envisioned my future dwelling would look – certain, we’re not fairly there but, however that dream’s nonetheless alive.

Taking part in as Religion in Dying Mild 2 can be completely superb – a “dream,” to borrow Smektała’s phrases. However he tells me that “we’re already engaged on collabs we might have solely dreamt of, so count on some extremely cool stuff coming subsequent yr!” Are you excited? I’m excited.
