Dying Light: Bad Blood, the standalone battle royale spin-off to the 2015 survival game, is now available for free, publisher Techland has announced. However, the deal is only available for those who already own the original Dying Light - if you don't, you'll still need to pay to play Bad Blood.

The spin-off ordinarily costs $20, so this represents quite the saving. The offer also applies to anyone who owns Dying Light on consoles - though you'll only be able to grab Bad Blood on PC. Head to the official microsite to grab your Steam code here.

The move has already helped the game to its highest-ever concurrent player count - though it did launch to notably poor player numbers, so perhaps it was a low bar to hit. The game was due to launch properly in "early 2019", but Techland has mostly remained quiet on it for the past year, until now. Hopefully this new influx of players will breathe new life into the 12-player multiplayer experience.
