Dying Light: The Beast will be available forPC,Xbox One,Xbox Series X/S,PS4andPS5.
Announced in August, Dying Light: The Beast was originally planned as story DLC forDying Light 2Stay Human. “But after two years of work, its size and scope has changed so much that it evolved into a standalone, self-contained experience,” according toTechland.
The Beast’s plot revolves around Kyle Crane, the undercover agent who was the main protagonist in the first Dying Light. Based on one of the original game’s multiple endings, Kyle has been infected, but he’s also been in captivity for the past 13 years thanks to the Baron, who’s introduced in the latest trailer.
Taking around 18 hours to complete, The Beast is set in the former tourist destination Castor Woods following Kyle’s escape from captivity. He’s on a mission to find those that imprisoned him and get revenge for a series of brutal experiments they carried out on him.
