Techland has an exciting update for fans of Dying Light: The Beast. We’ve heard you, we’ve seen the passion, and together we’ve already reached an incredible milestone – more than 1 million players have secured their copy of Dying Light: The Beast ahead of launch. This inspired us to push our boundaries and make the impossible possible.
We’re thrilled to announce that the global launch of Dying Light: The Beast will now take place one day earlier, on September 18, 2025, with players worldwide able to jump in on PC and consoles simultaneously.
Check the updated launch times in the map below.
And that’s not all. As a special thank you to our community, everyone who has pre-ordered and everyone who joins them before launch will receive an exclusive new reward. We’ll reveal the full details during launch week, but it’s our way of showing gratitude to the fans who made this moment possible.
“Seeing the excitement from our community for the return of Kyle Crane in Dying Light: The Beast, and knowing the game is ready, we wanted to do something special for our players. We pushed ourselves to make the impossible possible, and that’s why we’re releasing the game a little earlier. I can’t wait to see players’ reactions when they finally step into the world of The Beast.”
About The Game
You are Kyle Crane. After being captured by the Baron and enduring his painful experiments for years, you escape. Left on the edge of humanity with both human and zombie DNA, you struggle to control your inner beast and the conflict that comes with it. But you’ll need to, if you want to get your revenge on the man who did this to you.
A unique blend of open world and action survival horror, Dying Light: The Beast is set in the beautiful, yet dangerous valley of Castor Woods that’s now overrun with zombies rather than tourists. To take your former captor down, you’ll need to form fragile alliances, as well as utilize all the combat and traversal options in your arsenal.
But be careful: out here, each step is a fight for survival, especially once the sun sets and the tension heightens as the true horrors come out at night!
Dying Light: The Beast will be released on September 18, 2025 for PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. Pre-order it now and get the Hero of Harran Bundle as an exclusive bonus.
Since its release on Sept. 5, Cronos: The New Dawn has captivated players and critics alike with its atmospheric world, intense survival horror mechanics, and haunting narrative. Now, following a successful global launch across PC (Steam, GOG, Epic), PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch 2, Bloober Team is marking the occasion with the release of a brand-new accolades trailer.
The trailer highlights glowing reviews and critical acclaim from top industry outlets, underscoring Cronos: The New Dawn as a bold new entry in the survival horror genre.
Set against the eerie, post-industrial backdrop of New Dawn — a city inspired by Nowa Huta, the historic socialist district of Kraków — the game spans two haunting timelines: a crumbling post-apocalyptic future and the oppressive, concrete-clad 1980s. This dual narrative fuses retro realism with dystopian sci-fi, creating a retro-futuristic world teeming with psychological dread and environmental storytelling.
A third-person survival horror experience, Cronos: The New Dawn invites players to unravel the mystery of a shattered world, face their fears, and confront the unknown — all while navigating shifting realities, scarce resources, and chilling encounters.
With its unique setting, narrative depth, and a distinct artistic vision, Cronos: The New Dawn signals a new era for Bloober Team — one where emotional horror meets existential terror on an unforgettable scale.
