Following the gripping events of Dying Light: The Following, fans have been left pondering the fate of protagonist Kyle Crane. Now, with the eagerly anticipated release of Dying Light: The Beast, those mysteries will be unraveled. Tymon Smektała, the franchise director, emphasizes that this installment not only serves as the conclusion to Crane's narrative but also acts as a crucial bridge connecting the storylines of Dying Light and Dying Light 2: Stay Human.
Parkour, a signature element of the series, faced new challenges with the transition to a rural setting in The Beast. The development team innovatively reimagined movement mechanics, integrating industrial structures alongside natural elements such as trees and cliffs. This approach has resulted in a dynamic and environment-specific system that stays true to the essence of the franchise.
While Dying Light 2: Stay Human leaned more towards action, The Beast aims to recapture the intense atmosphere of constant danger and limited resources. Players will find ammunition scarce, and the enemies lurking in the dark forest at night will be more lethal than ever. Fleeing will often be the wisest strategy.
Dying Light: The Beast is poised to be a pivotal addition to the franchise. It will not only resolve lingering questions and bring closure to Crane's journey but also set the stage for the future of the series. Mark your calendars for the summer of 2025, when The Beast is set to launch.
