Dying Light: The Beast immerses players in a world where parkour skills are essential for survival amidst an undead apocalypse, all while grappling with the consequences of years spent under the influence of experimental “zombie juice.” The narrative centers around Kyle Crane, the protagonist from the original Dying Light, whose return is marked by a complex emotional landscape—suggesting that the juice may have had more negative effects than anticipated. Yet, it also endows him with formidable abilities to combat the undead, raising intriguing questions about morality within the realm of zombie fiction.
As the launch date approaches, anticipation builds for this engaging title. Dying Light: The Beast is set to debut at 9 am PDT on September 18, allowing players in California to dive into the action early in the day. However, given Kyle Crane’s troubled journey, players should prepare for a gaming experience that is likely to be anything but lighthearted.
