Techland revealed Dying Light: The Beast, the latest addition to the open-world zombie series, with a new trailer that teases the return of the original game’s protagonist, Kyle Crane, as its playable character. The announcement came with a trailer during Gamescom Opening Night Live.
The trailer is light on details, but switches perspectives between a group of soldiers and an unseen creature that rips them apart–which, given what Crane says when he finally appears on screen, seems likely to be the player-character. Check out the trailer below.
“Every man has an animal within. If you push too much, you might unleash the beast,” Crane says cryptically. So 10 bucks says you get to play as a mutant monster in addition to a sneaky, parkouring zombie-hunter, as we see in some gameplay clips in the back half of the trailer.
