Earlier today the official Dying Light Twitter tweeted a simple tweet with the words "January | 27 | 2015" and a picture of the date written on the floor, surprisingly announcing that the game (previously set for February) would be coming earlier than expected.

Techland has now shed more light on the Tweet, stating that Dying Light will hit the stores in 2015 on January 27th in the Americas, January 28th in Australia and New Zealand, and January 30th in Europe and Asia.
