Dying Light: The Beast Set to Release on August 22, 2025

At the recently concluded Summer Game Fest 2025, Techland, the Polish studio renowned for its work on the Dying Light franchise, revealed the much-anticipated release date for Dying Light: The Beast. Gamers can expect to dive into this spin-off title on August 22, 2025, available for PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series S|X. Initially conceived as a second expansion for Dying Light 2, the project evolved into a standalone game largely due to prior leaks impacting the development team in 2023.

The Return of Kyle Crane

Fans of the original Dying Light will be thrilled to hear that Kyle Crane is making a comeback. Voiced once again by the talented Roger Craig Smith, Crane’s character has undergone significant changes over the last thirteen years of experimentation, resulting in newfound powers. This evolution promises players an exhilarating experience filled with brutal combat mechanics, allowing them to crush skulls, decapitate foes, and utilize Crane’s beastly abilities.

Dynamic Day and Night Cycle

Dying Light: The Beast introduces an engaging gameplay mechanic where day and night present vastly different challenges. During daylight hours, players can explore and scavenge in relative safety. However, as night falls, formidable zombie threats emerge, compelling players to decide between fighting, fleeing, or hiding. The game also retains the signature first-person parkour system while introducing a new feature reminiscent of the The Following expansion—vehicles are back!

A Diverse Open World

Set in the breathtaking Castor Woods Valley, inspired by the stunning Swiss Alps, the game boasts an array of biomes, including a quaint tourist town, an industrial sector, sprawling national parks, agricultural lands, and eerie swamps.Dying Light: The Beast promises an exhilarating multiplayer experience with its fully playable four-player co-op mode, allowing players to progress together.

Pre-order Incentives
