This is NOT a clickbait. I am shaking as I type this – this is absolutely crazy. A brand new Dying Light game by Techland, that features Kyle Crane?! The nostalgia HITS HARD!
The opening night at Gamescom has been nothing short of amazing. So many cool trailers and surprises – but our favorite so far has to obviously be the new Dying Light game titled “Dying Light: The Beast.”
What do we know about the game yet? Not much. This is however from the official announcement: “To show appreciation for the community who patiently waited for the DLC, Techland will be offering Dying Light: The Beast at no extra cost to all owners of the Dying Light 2 Stay Human Ultimate Edition, delivering a full standalone adventure instead of just a DLC.”
So… is it a glorified DLC, like Dying Light: The Following? At the moment the info is a little blurry. It does sound like DLC but it has its own Steam page as well… I think we will just have to wait and see.
On the official announcement FAQs, it clears things up a little!
Is this DLC2 to Dying Light 2 Stay Human?
It initially started during our work on DLC2, but a story leak made us rethink the narrative, the scope and the general approach. When we decided to make Kyle Crane the hero of Dying Light: The Beast, it gave us a powerful boost of inspiration. Like many of you, we really wanted to bring Kyle back to do justice to the hero of Harran. That’s how Dying Light: The Beast was born – a self contained zombie survival adventure offering a new setting, new set of gameplay features and new story, culminating in a standalone, 18+ hours adventure.
Whew. Let’s talk a little bit about the plot!
Kyle Crane, the iconic hero of Harran, has finally broken free after enduring years of captivity and brutal experiments. Now on the run, he finds himself in Castor Woods, a new and treacherous environment filled with danger at every turn. As Crane hunts down those who wronged him, he uncovers unsettling truths that suggest his mission might be about more than just vengeance.
Castor Woods, once a lively tourist spot, has become a haunting landscape with dwindling numbers of human survivors and an ever-growing horde of zombies. The area is marked by its natural landmarks, small villages, and industrial zones, offering a variety of challenges and opportunities for survival. Crane must rely on his parkour abilities to navigate this dangerous terrain or use an abandoned 4×4 vehicle to evade the horrors that lurk in the shadows, especially as night falls.
We at Gamers-Outlet.net are super excited for this to launch, as of now there is no release date but at least it’s gonna be available SOME DAY!
