In a new blog post on Pilgrim Outpost, Tymon Smektala, director of the Dying Light series at Techland, revealed extensive details regarding the future of Dying Light: The Beast, explaining upcoming updates, new challenge mechanics, and the upcoming higher difficulty mode.
Smektala confirmed that the game will soon receive a New Game+ mode, along with the Legend Levels system, a new update that supports PC ray tracing technology, as well as a new collaboration with PUBG Mobile, but the most prominent thing he revealed was the new Nightmare Mode, some elements of which were inspired by games such as Resident Evil 3: Nemesis and Alien: Isolation.
According to the director, the mode will not only make the enemies stronger, but will add a more realistic survival system where the behavior of the bosses will be modified to make their encounters more predictable and varied, with changes to the Volatiles to make them more dangerous and unpredictable, he said:
“We want to make the experience more realistic and tense, not just raise the damage level, so we’re looking to apply ideas from popular survival games to deliver a smarter and more exciting experience.
He also confirmed that the Call of the Beast challenge path continues until 2026, with players receiving exclusive rewards for completing huge community challenges, such as the first challenge that asks players to cut more than 60 million zombie limbs!
It looks like Dying Light: The Beast isn’t stopping anytime soon as Techland is gearing up for a more brutal and realistic survival horror experience than ever before, are you ready to face the nightmares in Nightmare Mode?
