Post Launch For Dying Light: The Beast Includes New Game+ And ‘Call of The Beast’ Community Event

When it comes to Dying Light, developer Techland has continuously delivered on each installment of the series thus far. And with the newest entry – standalone Dying Light: The Beast –  this trend has only persisted. Originally, Dying Light: The Beast was scheduled to release in August 2025, however, that was before the game was pushed to its later September 20th release date.

Leading up to the game’s release, Techland did confirm that this new addition stands as Dying Light 3 despite the stature it is releasing in. “The project started with a slightly smaller ambition, but we got so excited about Kyle Crane returning. We got so excited about, actually, what we can do with this new iteration of the engine, how confident we feel about the gameplay mechanics.”

Now as Techland does with its releases, a post-launch effort is now underway for Dying Light: The Beast. On X, the publisher revealed the full roadmap including New Game+ & the 11-week spanning ‘Call of the Beast’ community event.

“Techland has announced Call of the Beast, a global community initiative inviting Dying Light: The Beast players to unite and prove their strength together. The event begins on October 16 and runs until January 7, 2026, introducing new challenges and exclusive rewards every Thursday for a total of 11 weeks,” Techland explains in the press release.

“Throughout the campaign, players around the world will take on weekly goals that celebrate teamwork, persistence, and the power of the Dying Light community. Each challenge offers exclusive rewards that appear directly in participants’ in-game stash once objectives are met. From new weapons to unique car skins, every week brings fresh surprises and reasons to celebrate the collective success of the community.To get the weekly rewards, players will need to contribute to the goal that week.”
