Zombie has always been a topic that brings endless inspiration to game developers as well as players. It is no coincidence that a zombie game like The Day Before has received so much anticipation, becoming one of the most desired names on Steam last year.
Then in 2024, another game has emerged that has topped the most anticipated list on Steam. Also themed around zombies, however, perhaps no one hopes this blockbuster will become a second The Day Before.
The highly anticipated game is called Dying Light The Beast. With the brand and success of the Dying Light series, it is unlikely that Dying Light The Beast will turn out to be a “scam” like The Day Before.
As of now, although there is no scheduled release date, Dying Light The Beast has attracted over 1 million wishlists from gamers on the Steam platform. This is an impressive number and also shows that the appeal of zombie games seems to be strongly maintained.
Initially, Dying Light The Beast was expected to be a DLC for Dying Light 2, but then the developer Techland significantly expanded its scope to create a completely new experience. The main character in the story is still Kyle Crane, but this time the story is darker and will intrigue many. Crane becomes the subject of dark experiments and has been trapped there for over 13 years until he escapes with a body full of zombie DNA, seeking revenge. The survival elements in the game are also heightened to bring excitement and tension in every moment of the experience.
There are many things to pay attention to in Dying Light The Beast, especially the fact that weapons have a certain durability – similar to The Legend of Zelda. Ammunition and guns are scarce, much like in The Last of Us. Overall, there is so much to look forward to with Dying Light The Beast.
