Dying Light protagonist Kyle Crane is back for a new standalone spin-off game named Dying Light: The Beast, developed by series creator Techland. The title, set between the original and its sequel Dying Light 2: Stay Human, will feature its very own compact open world – and new stories within it.
The return of the release's original hero is pertinent, as Crane could face one of two grisly fates at the end of the first game: detonate a giant bomb or sacrifice himself to science. Either way, things didn't really end well for the protagonist.
Nevertheless, he's here, climbing up buildings and lopping the heads off the undead. As you'd expect from a Dying Light game, there'll be myriad weapons to utilise and even a truck to drive. Crucially, it looks like Crane will be hunted by zombies as well as mobsters and the military. Life's rarely easy, eh?
There's no date attached to the outing just yet, but we'll update as and when we know more.
