About

Note: If you’ve bought the Ultimate Edition of “Dying Light 2: Stay Human,” you’ll get “Dying Light: The Beast” free of charge.

In a chilling solo zombie excursion, Dying Light: The Beast transports you to the desolate Castor Woods, a former tourist hotspot now plagued by a post-apocalyptic wasteland. Having survived 13 years of grueling experiments, you break free and embark on a quest for vengeance against your captors. However, you soon uncover that there’s much more at risk than just revenge. Although the area isn’t as bustling as it once was, you’ll encounter survivors and factions, along with countless horrors lurking in the shadows. Some will plead for your aid, others will seek to end your life. And let’s not forget about the enigmatic beast that has made the woods its playground of terror.

Key Features

  • Become the Legendary Hero – You are Kyle Crane, the man whose selflessness during the initial virus outbreak saved many from a fate worse than death. After more than a decade in captivity, you find yourself in a world that’s changed, and not for the better. Now, you’ll need to use the survival skills that kept you alive all those years ago to save even more innocent lives.
  • Explore a Tightly-Crafted Open World – Welcome to Castor Woods! This once-bustling tourist destination is home to a diminishing number of survivors and an increasing population of zombies. Featuring natural landmarks, small villages and industrial complexes, the setting offers diverse traversal options, whether it’s using your parkour skills to gain the upper hand on your enemies or hopping into an abandoned 4×4 to outrun the horrors of the night.
  • Unleash the Beast to Survive – They caged you like an animal. Years of brutal experimentation took its toll, but the zombie DNA and yours are now intertwined so that you are able to unleash a beast-like power. It flows through your veins. No one can take it from you. Use it. And you’ll discover it’s not just a curse.
  • Savor the Day, Outlast the Night – The day brings many possibilities to explore the region and make the most of your time while the sun is still out. But after sundown, the laws of nature take their course. Darkness tends to bring out the worst in the horde, leaving you with no other choice but to run, hide, or fight.
  • Surviving is Easier in Four-Player Cooperative Play – Sometimes it’s best to stick to a group. You never know what you might come across on your adventure. Team up in up to four-player cooperative play, or ride solo if you have the guts to take it all on your own.
