    Update 1.4 brings meaningful progression changes, visual upgrades, and hundreds of fixes that make Dying Light: The Beast feel smoother to play and easier to return to.

    Dying Light: The Beast’s 1.4 update is a substantial one, especially if you stepped away after finishing the main story or were waiting for something with more long-term depth. New Game+ gives you the option to replay Kyle’s journey with all your gear intact while enemies scale higher and loot becomes more rewarding.

     

     

    Players on PC with capable hardware can now enable ray tracing for improved lighting, shadows, and reflections. For everyone else, there is a new week-long community challenge with rewards, along with broad improvements across the entire game that make exploration and combat feel more polished.

    New Game+ and Legend Levels and more

    New Game+ is now available, and it lets you keep all your gear and upgrades from your first playthrough while facing tougher enemies right from the start.

     

    Once you reach level 15, Legend Levels return and shift your XP into a secondary progression system. It adds passive upgrades, more health, and improvements to combat stats.

     

    Legend Levels also unlock 22 new weapons, 2 full outfits, and a legendary vehicle skin, giving you plenty of new rewards to work toward. Players can also try three new finishers. One is tied to one-handed blunt weapons, another to two-handed blunt weapons, and the last to two-handed slasher weapons.

     

    Stamina has been reworked as well. You now begin the game with more stamina, making early fights feel smoother, and the total endgame cap remains unchanged.

    Call of the Beast event and a huge round of fixes

    The update launches alongside the Call of the Beast community event, with rewards tied to executing finishers. More importantly, this patch includes over 400 improvements. That includes fixes for more than 200 parkour and navigation issues, along with adjustments to ziplines, vault poles, and early weapon placement.

     

    The developers have also addressed over 70 visual problems and more than 35 stability issues. These fixes cover crashes, lighting inconsistencies, UI bugs, and a range of audio problems.

     

    Update 1.4 adds a lot, gives players new reasons to replay, and resolves a long list of lingering issues. It makes this patch one of the best times to jump back into the game or try it for the first time, and I highly recommend you read the full patch notes, as there’s much more.
