In celebration of Dying Light 5th year, Techland is bringing a lot of content, along with a free weekend that is live right now. You can now play the game for free on Steam, as this offer will last till Sunday, 23 February.
On the other hand, the studio has also announced a month full of events. The events will last until March 19 and fans and fans can expect some surprises and comebacks. The community rewards will include a brand new weapon blueprint, C4—a throwable explosive that sticks to surface—and a surprise outfit. The DLC is available right now for PC and consoles and will cost you $2.99.
On the console versions of the game, you will be getting the 5th Anniversary Bundle for Dying Light that will offer gear worth of a Harran Veteran. In addition to the outfit, you will get a new buggy paint job and blueprints for three new weapons.
- a brand new pipe – consecutive hits boost damage +50% after 3 or more hits;
- a new sledgehammer;
- a brand new double-barreled shotgun – with 50% faster reload speed, increased damage size and bullet speed: can shoot both shells at once to produce a “malfunctioning effect”, packs a heavy punch
Lastly, the game is also receiving a brand new difficulty mode for everyone to enjoy. Regardless of your skill level and experience with action games, the brand new difficulty mode is intended for those who would like to focus on the story and exploration without worrying too much about survival.
It is safe to say that the story mode is getting tweaked to make the game significantly easier. The new modes will include Story Mode, Normal, Hard, Nightmare.
