The parkour is on the way back in Dying Light: The Beast, and we get to see a bit more of how Dying Light might play out in the real world
It has been a few years since we had our last look at how parkour would flow in this world, but here we go again to further hype up Dying Light: The Beast launching, we have the next part to it all. Maybe you remember it, or maybe you don’t, but back when the second title was released, Techland helped bring a bit of the game to life with some real-world free runners. All to give us a feel for how things would flow out there if Dying Light 2 happened and you happened to be a free runner. Almost four years later, and just ahead of the September 19th release on the PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC, we get to meet back up with the crew and see how things have evolved and will pan out as we head deep into the Castor Woods for this next entry into the IP.
Of course, none of this is actual gameplay for Dying Light: The Beast, but a solid reminder that the video game is still coming after a bit of a delay. All while showing off some amazing acrobatics and free running abilities from the team that produced the first short and now this one. All while digging a bit more into the lore and world we have spent a whole lot of time with already. Beyond the parkour, which is amazing in a POV run here, there is not much else that makes it feel like it is in the world of Dying Light: The Beast. Fast zombies are here. A whole lot of free running is out there. Along with a little bit of playing with the day and night cycle of things. Beyond that, gamers don’t have much to look for in the video. Unless you don’t have the same level of skills these runners have, then you can watch it all and get a little feel for how things could play out if you did have to run for the woods in this title.
Dying Light: The Beast — Zombie Parkour POV Chase!
Inspired by the highly anticipated Dying Light: The Beast, this Parkour POV puts you in the shoes of a group of survivors. Feel the rush of their frantic escape. Scale buildings. Jump across rooftops. Outrun the horrors. But will you make it out alive?
Dying Light: The Beast is a unique blend of open world and action survival horror. Feel the adrenaline rush of first-person parkour as you enter the zombie-infested Castor Woods and push brutal combat to the extreme.
Get ready to unleash the beast when the game releases on September 19.
After roughly ten years since first working with Dying Light, we are thrilled to return with another Zombie Parkour POV. It was extremely fun bringing this concept again, getting our friends into Zombie makeup and building super fun Parkour sequences together. Thanks to Dying Light for sponsoring the production of this film!
Did you happen to spot more that linked all of this into the Dying Light world? Is it odd that we didn’t get any of the bigger infected as we have in the past video? Was this supposed to launch out there with the original date that the video game was given? Do you wish you could run like this in the real world, and does this give you a better taste than doing it in the video game? Race on down to the comment section to discuss all of this. We have a lot more for Dying Light: The Beast running right for us, so please keep a keen eye on the site for all of those updates. I know you will not be let down by any of those updates, unless we are hit with another delay to our hyped-up video games in the real world.
