Dying Light, the upcoming first person survival horror title from Techland, combines two of mankind's favorite things: zombies, and Parkour. Ampisound,a team of British freerunners, however, has taken that love to the next level: they've created a new first person live action zombie parkour video and it's awesome.

The tense video is a bit jumpy in terms of cuts, but it is still filled with loads of great stunts that will make you appreciate your knees all the more. There's something primal about viewing a horrifying situation through the eyes of someone else. This isn't a stunt guy traipsing over the rooftops of Cambridge, this is me running for my life.
The video comes by way of Ampisound, who did a similar video for the original Parkour title Mirror's Edge a few years ago. Techland also says to expect more Parkour related news to be hitting next wee, so keep your eyes peeled.
And Xur's Location This Weekend Is...
We hope that Dying Light can give us the same sense of thrill and horror that this video has provided. In it, you act as a free runner trapped in an abandoned city that is just swarming with zombies. As if gravity and the general state of decay of modern architecture weren't enough, now you have obstacles that are actively trying to eat you. And they only get worse at night, too as the strength of the zombies increases, and terrifying new predators take to the rooftops in search of prey.
Dying Light is coming to PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC, and is scheduled for release on January 27 here in the States.
