This collaboration is a massive win for fans of the undead. While Quarantine Zone: The Last Check usually has you managing the high-stakes bureaucracy of a military checkpoint, Dying Light 2 puts you on the front lines of the urban sprawl. Pairing these two offers a complete look at the apocalypse—from the cold, calculated decisions of an officer deciding who lives, to the frantic survival of a runner in the city.
For those of us who have been grinding through the latest patches and managing refugee lines, this bundle provides a perfect change of pace at a significantly reduced price point. It is rare to see an indie simulator team up with a AAA titan like Techland, and it speaks volumes about the impact Quarantine Zone has made on the survival strategy genre since its release.
The bundle is available for a limited time as part of the Steam Spring Sale. If you have been on the fence about picking up either title, this is likely the best value you will see for a while. It is a smart move for Brigada Games, potentially bringing a whole new audience of action-oriented players into the more methodical, tense world of checkpoint management.
