And it was announced today.
Dying Light The Beast was today announced by Techland at Gamescom and is a standalone entry in the popular zombie franchise.
Techland called the title “a thrilling 18+ hours standalone zombie adventure set in the post-apocalyptic Castor Woods, a once-popular tourist destination. After 13 years of enduring experiments, you escape and hunt down your captors to seek retribution, only to discover there’s far more at stake.
“While the region is not as populated as it once was, there are still people and factions here, as well as plenty of horrors. Some will ask for your help, others will want to kill you. And that’s not to mention the mysterious creature that’s turned the woods into its personal hunting grounds.”
Players will fill the shoes of 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.,” Techland continued. “Now, you’ll need to use the survival skills that kept you alive all those years ago to save even more innocent lives.”
Dying Light The Beast doesn’t have a release date as yet, but Techland has promised to share more later this year. It’s planned for release on Windows PC, Xbox One, Xbox Series S, Xbox Series X, PS4, and PS5.
