You are Kyle Crane.
After being captured by the Baron and enduring his painful experiments for years, you escape. But the scars remain. 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.
Become Kyle Crane, a unique hero with DNA of a survivor… and a beast.
Switch between two playstyles and experience a fierce inner conflict between man and monster, leading to the ultimate embrace of unstoppable strength.
Take the raw savagery of Dying Light’s combat to the extreme and push brutality beyond human limits as you crush skulls, rip heads off, and tear enemies in half as you struggle to control our hero's constantly evolving, rage-fueled, beast-like powers.
A signature of the Dying Light series - the two vastly different experiences of day and night merge into one unforgettable whole. Scavenge and explore by day, mindful of the constant tension of the moving clock - as when the sun sets, the night unleashes horrors that leave you with only three choices: run, hide, or fight for your life.
Feel the rush of best-in-class first-person parkour as you jump from rooftop to rooftop and climb over any obstacle using a movement system accessible to all, yet rewarding to those who master it. Then take the wheel of an off-road vehicle and plow through hordes of zombies, enjoying the unparalleled freedom of open world traversal.
Breathtaking next-gen visuals bring the handcrafted zombie apocalypse to life, where every detail tells a story of survival. Get lost in the majesty of the Swiss Alps-inspired valley of Castor Woods with various biomes - the touristic town, the industrial area, the national park, farm fields, the swamps - all full of beauty… and decay.
Band together in up to 4-player co-op to take on the dangers of Castor Woods, where every fight, every discovery and every twisting step of the story can be faced as a group. Use shared progression to conquer the entire adventure side by side, as you face relentless enemies, scavenge for resources and save each other from the brink of death.
