5 highlights that make Dying Light: The Beast the perfect game for Halloween

Halloween is approaching, and we couldn't imagine a better way to celebrate than diving into Dying Light: The Beast. Why? Because it's basically Halloween night in a game form - minus the candy, plus the screaming. A lot of screaming.

Here are 5 highlights that make Dying Light: The Beast the perfect game for this Halloween:

 
  1. The night is the beast

Dark as hell, twisted nights filled with volatile horrors? Perfect for Halloween scares! Or, you know, for trying not to scream at your own reflection. The night experience in the Dying Light series was always special, but in the new one it's a completely different beast - pitch-black, with almost no artificial light aside from your trusty flashlight - and a fresh redesign of Volatiles, the iconic night stalkers, who've learned how to hunt in packs and chase players with terrifying efficiency. Even seasoned survivors hold their breath and grip their controllers a little tighter when the sun goes down.

 
  1. Truly unpredictable survival horror

No scripted jumpscares here! While many horror games pre-bake their frights with tight scripting, Dying Light: The Beast does it differently - by using interlocking systems that generate tension on the fly, responding to players' actions. From a noise system that affects AI reactions to sneaky spawn rules that drop zombies into the middle of the forest, this take on survival horror is purely systemic. One moment you're safe; the next... let's just say the shadows have teeth. And every player will have their own horror story to tell!

 
  1. Gore galore

Think you've seen bloody scenes before? The most iconic horror films, like Friday the 13th, Saw, or Candyman, set the bar for gore - but Dying Light: The Beast takes it to the same level... or even further. Brutal finishers and realistic blood splatter bring Halloween-level horror straight to players' screen, and these disturbingly convincing crimson stains look pure Rorschach. Techland knows their blood - they've mastered the art of gore to perfection. Just take a look... if you dare... LINK

 
  1. PUBG Mobile crossover mayhem 

And if someone is not convinced yet, perfectly for Halloween - on October 31 lands the first crossover for Dying Light: The Beast and PUBG Mobile. Trick or treat? Definitely both. Two worlds collide in a way you never saw coming. Dying Light: The Beast brings intense parkour, brutal melee combat, and spine-chilling horror, while PUBG Mobile delivers heart-pounding battle-royale shootouts. Together? Survival has never felt this wild. As Game Director Nathan Lemaire says: "At their heart, what unites them is a singular, powerful focus: survival." Perfect for Halloween - when surviving the night isn't just in-game, it's a whole mood.

 
  1. Zombie dress-up ideas

The zombies in Dying Light: The Beast are crafted with extreme care to feel disturbingly real. Every facial twitch, every lingering trace of humanity - in both look and sound - is shaped by Techland's artists to terrify... and to inspire Halloween looks! If someone's hunting for costume ideas, they can start here: the infected of Dying Light: The Beast are fashion icons of fear. Don't believe it? Scroll through the game's player Photo Mode gallery and see for yourself - Halloween chic has never looked this horrifying. And if players don't fancy dressing up as zombies, they can always step into the shoes of Kyle Crane or The Baron... and even compete for cash and awesome prizes in the cosplay contest
