Techland has officially confirmed the release date for Dying Light: The Beast: August 22, 2025. Fans of the franchise can gear up for a return to heart-pounding parkour, intense zombie fights, and a darker twist in this upcoming sequel. The game will launch on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S.
What Does This Mean for Gamers?
It means a new era for Dying Light—more open-world tension, smoother gameplay, and better graphics thanks to next-gen hardware. Whether you’re a longtime fan or new to the series, this release promises action, upgrades, and plenty of infected chaos.
A Deeper Look at the Beast
The reveal trailer shown at Summer Game Fest 2025 gave players a glimpse of what’s coming. Parkour is back in full force, but now paired with brutal new combat mechanics. There’s a strong focus on the “Beast” itself—hinting at evolved or mutated infected that could change how players approach survival.
Expect to see Techland push its horror and survival gameplay further than ever. The world looks more intense, the infected more terrifying. The devs clearly aren’t holding back.

One can only hope the new game builds on everything that made Dying Light special, while scaring the daylight out of us in new ways.
