Having announced a new Dying Light game at Gamescom, developers Techland now have the task of generating hype. The company do appear to be rectifying a potential error they made during the announcement, stating that Dying Light: The Beast will be free for anyone that purchased Dying Light 2: Stay Human's Ultimate Edition. This decision was supposedly made due to the fact that The Beast was originally intended as DLC, before evolving into a much grander project.

In an apparent bid to prevent gamers purchasing (or upgrading to) the Ultimate Edition in hopes of grabbing a freebie, Techland have announced that they will be pulling it from digital stores come September 30th. This means that anyone that doesn't currently own the game or looking to upgrade must do so before then or miss out on the chance of getting Dying Light: The Beast for free.
The upcoming game will once again see players take control of Kyle Crane, seeking revenge on those that have imprisoned and experimented on him for the last thirteen years. Though little is known about the game at present, this new instalment will see a different Crane, with the character possessing mutated abilities. It is expected to act more like a first-person shooter than a survival horror, featuring both solo and up to four-player co-op, with shared progression.
Dying Light: The Beast is set to arrive on Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 5 and PC at an undisclosed date.
