Dying Light News

Keeping Dying Light alive and thriving for half a decade would be impossible without the undying support of our amazing community. Having that and the significance of the occasion in mind, we decided that the 5th anniversary celebration needs to be a large-scale experience that offers something for every Survivor. Instead of launching a single event we prepared a whole range of varied activities that will keep the fun going throughout a whole month (until March 19).

Each week of this Dying Light insanity will bring back a popular global event from the game’s rich past, accompanied by a personal bounty related to one of fan favorite characters.

We’re kicking things off with Jeff and Super-Crane. During the first week of the 5th Anniversary Month you’ll be hunting Volatiles to earn a brand new C4 Explosive blueprint drawn by Fort Jefferson’s fearless commander, and throwing zombies off roofs as Harran’s superhero equipped with an enhanced grappling hook. We won’t tell you just yet what comes next, but rest assured tons of fun are coming your way, and some cool rewards too, including a crazy outfit that we can’t wait for you to see. Keep your eyes peeled for info on 5th Anniversary Month's upcoming events.

There’s one more thing we want to share with you. The latest Dying Light update introduces a new difficulty level intended for those who’d like to focus on the story and exploration without worrying too much about survival. Story Mode features a number of tweaks which make the game significantly easier: you're stronger and tougher, the Infected are less dangerous, nights are shorter, etc. Now everyone can enjoy their stay in Harran regardless of their skill level and experience with action games.

[h2]If you still haven’t visited Harran, here’s a great chance to catch up on one of the top user-rated action games available on Steam. [/h2]

[h3]As a part of the 5th Anniversary Month and for the first time ever, we made Dying Light available to play for free on PC. Just head over to Steam, install the game and have fun until February 23 (10:00 am PT / 19:00 CET / 6:00 pm GMT). Better still, tell your friends about the free weekend, so you can explore Dying Light’s vast open world, hack zombies to pieces, and follow the story together in an exciting co-op for up to 4 players.

If the free weekend leaves you hungry for more, you’ll be able to grab the game on Steam with a discount of 60% for the standard edition and 67% for the Enhanced Edition. Enjoy your stay in Harran![/h3]
