Techland has released a new video for Dying Light: The Beast, highlighting protagonist Kyle Crane’s ongoing struggle for survival in Castor Woods. The footage focuses on two of the game’s core systems of parkour and combat, with developers explaining how both have been overhauled for greater realism and freedom.
Parkour now allows players to climb almost any surface without stamina restrictions, with over 100 new animations and refined physics that remove the “floaty” feel of previous entries. Combat has also been rebuilt, with precise weapon handling, advanced AI for human enemies, and a new damage model that allows for more detailed dismemberment.
Dying Light: The Beast launches on 28 February 2026 for PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S.
