Dying Light: The Beast News
A new Dying Light The Beast update will hand its biters a restraining order
Dying Light The Beast is a delightfully pure distillation of everything that makes Techland's zombie-smashing series great. Its brutal, lethal combat is no exception - but one particular enemy type has proven themselves a particular menace, to the point where the team has made a weekend announcement to confirm that it's taking action. In a new developer video, game director Nathan Lemaire discusses Dying Light The Beast's biter problem, and explains the changes Techland is planning to make to make them easier to counteract.
