Here’s a Dying Light Valentine’s Docket Freebie; Techland Community Manager Denies Acquisition Rumors

New Dying Light Update 1.40

In case you didn’t know, a new game update was rolled out for Dying Light, and this introduced new content to the zombie game. If that wasn’t enough, Techland has also released a Dying Light Valentine’s docket code freebie too!

For those interested, the docket code is “TRUELOVE” and will give players the Valentine’s Pack, which contains the Valentine’s Crossbow. Players can redeem the code on the official Dying Light docket site. If you’re not familiar with how it works, just sign up to the website, link your PSN/XBL/Steam account, redeem the code, and voila! That’s about it.

If a free Dying Light Valentine’s docket isn’t that big of a news for you, then perhaps rumors of Techland’s acquisition is! Over on Twitter, Techland Community Manager “Uncy” tweeted that he has gotten DMs (Direct Messages) about the studio being acquired, and issued a semi-statement of sorts.

I’m getting a lot of dm’s about Dying Light acquisition so I’ll answer here:
There was the same rumour floating around the internet one year ago and the situation didn’t change – Techland is an independent studio and it was not acquired by another publisher (:

The studio being indie still is good news, as they’ll be able to release the game when they feel is ready. That, and I doubt publishers would want a studio to keep making content for games released years ago.

For those looking for Dying Light 2 news, sit tight! Techland confirmed that we’ll be getting “fresh updates” on the game this year. In the meantime, go check out the contents of the Dying Light 2 Collector’s Edition which got leaked by a retailer.
