Techland showed up for Summer Game Fest 2025 to announce a Dying Light: The Beast release date of August 22, 2025, for PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X | S.
The surprise puts the Dying Light spinoff out in just a few months, placing players back into the shoes of Kyle Crane following his absence in the 2022 sequel. It’s a release date announcement that comes with a fresh look at gameplay, as Techland teases some of the many, many ways players can beat, stab, and bash their way through hundreds of infected.
Dying Light: The Beast is a standalone story in Techland’s post-apocalyptic universe. It’s available for pre-order now, granting early purchasers access to exclusive items such as the Hero of Harran bundle. For more reveals, be sure to read up on everything else shown during Summer Game Fest 2025.
