Techland has unveiled update 1.4 for Dying Light: The Beast, an enormous update for the action title that incorporates brand new features and hundreds of improvements.
Largely based on feedback from the community, update 1.4 brings fixes, improvements, and features requested by players.
Here's a quick rundown of all the major additions in the update:
New Game + mode: New Game + is added to the game, meaning you can replay the adventure while keeping all your gear, weapons, and character progression from your first playthrough. Each time you start New Game +, the level of challenge increases, but so does the power and rarity of the weapons you find.
Legend Levels: This is an endgame progression system that allows you to continue building your character beyond the main skill tree. After reaching level 15, XP you earn converts to Legend XP, which allows you to invest in passive upgrades like more health and better stats.
Visual improvements: The update fixes "over 70 graphical issues", with improvements and fixes to textures, clipping, misaligned architecture, and more.
Refined gameplay: There are "over 200 parkour and environment navigation" fixes, according to the press release, based on input from the community.
On top of all this, Techland is offering an exclusive in-game item, the Bloody Bowie Knife, to anyone who logs into the game between now and 2nd December.
There's also a double XP period happening between now and 30th November.
We really enjoyed Dying Light: The Beast at launch, but it sounds like Techland has delivered a meaningful update here that makes some serious improvements to the experience.
