As the launch of Dying Light: The Beast draws near, excitement is high across Techland. This past week alone, over 150 previews were published from journalists and content creators, all receiving universal praise. Reviews abound with terms like “nail‑biting survival horror,” “absolute blast,” “a project with a soul,” and even “standout game of 2025.” These strong reactions affirm that Techland is indeed creating something very special and enjoyable.

New Release Date & Dev Commitment
To ensure the highest quality experience, Techland has moved the release date to September 19, 2025. The studio explained that the extra four weeks will be used to apply finishing touches—polishing gameplay balance, enhancing UI clarity, improving physics, refining animations and cutscenes, and adding subtle final details that elevate the entire experience. While the delay may disappoint some, Techland expressed that first impressions are critical and the decision reflects their dedication to excellence.
What’s Next: Summer Updates & Gamescom Preview
Techland plans to keep fans engaged throughout the summer with regular updates. Highlights include a playable demo at Gamescom (Hall 6), a deeper update on the game’s gore system next week, and the return of fan-favorite character Bober the Beaver. With only eight weeks remaining, all signs point toward a confident countdown to launch.
The developers extend their best regards and invite fans to engage with the community across Discord, Facebook, X,Instagram, and YouTube
