Dying Light PC players can now create new content for the game with its official Developer Tools, developer Techland has announced.
“All PC players can now take on the role of game designers and build their own quarantine zones,” Techland said. “The Dying Light Developer Tools allow for the creation of brand-new maps, custom stories, and insane scenarios limited only by the imagination of the author.”
All content users create with the Developer Tools can be easily shared and downloaded thanks to Steam Workshop integration.
As you can see in the trailer above, the Developer Tools will allow you to write your own stories in the style of the open-world, melee-focused, first-person zombie game, or just make silly creations, stacking up explosive barrels and knocking zombies off of cliffs and into giant targets.
Techland said that it plans to regularly expand and update the Developer Tools with new features, assets, and functionality.
The developer has embraced user-created content since the game was released in late January. In Early February, it released a patch for the game as part of a wider effort to curb cheating in its Be The Zombie multiplayer mode, but the changes had also blocked out user-made mods.
Upon discovering the restrictions, Techland quickly released a statement suggesting that this was an unintended side-effect, and eventually corrected the error.
Last month, Techland announced that Dying Light netted 3.2 million players in the first 45 days following its launch, making it the most popular title in the company’s history.
