Thanks, I'll take a look at it! I always thought it was more of a survival game than parcour before
It's basically an action RPG but the way they you get around the world is parkour and there's a skill tree related to free running skills. It's a phenomenal system. I prefer the first one to the second.
Its like superhuman parkour by the end too. Basically spider man. And if you really want to shit your pants, there challenges like the bozak horde and other special locations that can be pretty scary and heavy on the parkour.
I haven't played it but I think Dying Light matches that.
Dying Light for sure. I remember thinking while playing it at launch that it was like Mirror's Edge meets Dead Island.
Dying Light is great, but there is an old little-known Ubisoft game that i love called I Am Alive which is like a parkour horror/survival game. It's not very long and some of its mechanics are repetitive and boring, but the core gameplay is really cool and not something that was replicated anywhere else. If you can find it cheap, it's worth the few hours it takes to go through.
Not really parkour like dying light is, but in outlast trials you will kinda try to outrun lots of different killers and monsters. Can probably be compared a bit with dead by daylight
Possibly Mirror's edge. Not exactly horror, but certainly decent, especially if you haven't played it.
Dead by Daylight.
Definitely not even close to parkour. The only jumping in that game is going over obstacles like windows; you can't even jump.
