During the day, players will traverse an expansive urban environment overrun by a vicious outbreak, scavenging the world for supplies and crafting weapons to defend against the growing infected population. At night, the hunter becomes the hunted, as the infected become aggressive and more dangerous. Most frightening are the predators which only appear after sundown.

Players must use everything in their power to survive until the morning's first light.

Survive in a city beset by a zombie virus! Discover the hard choice you will have to make on your secret mission. Will loyalty to your superiors prove stronger than the will to save the survivors? The choice is yours…

Ten years ago, Harran and Kyle Crane were introduced to the world for the first time, and since then the Dying Light franchise has been enjoyed by more than 45 million zombie slayers. The first game changed the open world survival horror genre forever, pushing it forward with the introduction of the dual night and day experience that has since become a series staple. During the day, players faced slow-moving zombies, which gave a false sense of normalcy. But as the sun set, the rules of the game changed dramatically. New dangers and apex predators emerged, taking control of the night. Alongside the night and day experience, Dying Light focused on visceral, savage combat and natural parkour movement, allowing for a new level of both free movement and creative brutality.

This year, we celebrate this remarkable decade and a journey that wouldn't have been possible without our fantastic community of 45+ million diehard fans! Players have truly shaped what Dying Light is today. And the numbers are astonishing: since the release of our first title in 2015, they have racked up 75 billion zombie kills and over 1 billion hours of playtime! Watch the full episode of Dying To Know, dedicated to our fans, as we reminisce and celebrate a remarkable decade of Dying Light.

A celebration for the fans as much as for us 

Players’ dedication has helped the franchise cement its place in the annals of gaming history. It has also created a vibrant and thriving community. Their passion has taken things to another level: from the creation of maps and their lore to fan art and cosplays, and everything in between, it’s amazing to see just what they do! And it’s their feedback that continues to help us improve the overall experience for everyone through the requested features like the introduction of finishers to Dying Light 2: Stay Human.

To commemorate the 10 years of zombie slaying, parkour moves and succumbing to the night, we’ve also prepared a special Dying Light 10th Anniversary - Community Rewind video that details some major numbers from the franchise’s history. Additionally, players can drill deeper and find out how they contributed to the numbers in Dying Light 2: Stay Human with their personal Wrap-Up stats on Pilgrim Outpost soon. 

Honor the past by celebrating in the present

To celebrate the franchise, we're taking a sentimental journey through the thrilling world of Dying Light. Fans of the original Dying Light can enjoy their favorite events making a return, while in Dying Light 2: Stay Human, players can get their hands on special rewards from the first game through bounties on Pilgrim Outpost. 

Both games will also receive free updates very soon. In Dying Light we’ll bring back events, add new rewards, and even after all these years, we’re working on an update aimed at enhancing the game further. It will focus on improving the visual quality, adding a remastered soundtrack with new music from the original composer Paweł Błaszczak, and more. Meanwhile, Dying Light 2: Stay Human will see further prologue changes and the permanent release of Tower Raid, our co-op focused roguelite mode, in which players need to overcome challenges such as scaling the building in an attempt to make it to the top and reap the spoils! 

During our anniversary celebrations, everyone will be able to claim a free package for Dying Light on their favorite platform stores. And for those new to the series, they can enjoy major discounts on both Dying Light and Dying Light 2: Stay Human, the latter of which is available for under $20 (67% off) for the first time ever.

Even more items are being added to the Pilgrims Outpost’s Armory, the new ‘G.R.E. Hazmat’ bundle for Dying Light 2: Stay Human and Twitch Drops simply for watching Dying Light content. Plus, an anniversary track for Dying Light by the original composer, Paweł Błaszczak, will drop on several music streaming platforms and we will also run a community contest. There's a lot to dive into in the coming weeks!

The next era of Dying Light begins in Summer 2025

At the same time we're celebrating the 10th anniversary of Dying Light, we are already hard at work on the next era of the franchise. Our recent major rebrand aims to establish the franchise as the ultimate zombie experience across all future projects. The first piece of this ambitious future is Dying Light: The Beast, which will release in Summer 2025. During the 10th anniversary Dying to Know show, we shared a look behind the scenes of the development and that voice recordings with Roger Craig Smith, who reprises his role of Kyle Crane, have recently finished. The team is now tweaking the moveset and animations as requested by many fans to make Kyle truly feel like Kyle.

And our plans to grow the franchise don't stop at Dying Light: The Beast. We'll continue the series with multiple unannounced projects and will also go beyond video games with new board games, exclusive merchandise, original webcomic series and more on the horizon. Our goal is to bring the world of Dying Light to even more people. From the ongoing support of our currently released games to Dying Light: The Beast and beyond, there’s never been a better time to be a Dying Light fan.
