This should definitely come as good news to Dying Light fans, as the player base is still quite active with Techland saying that there are nearly 500,000 people playing each week, and that’s impressive considering it has been nearly three years since the game’s release. As of now, the studio has yet to confirm exactly what kind of content will be brought about in the expansion packs, but the company’s CEO Paweł Marchewka has proclaimed the materials are “already in the works.”
Thankfully, Techland isn’t planning for the DLC to be a timed-exclusive on any specific platform, as it will be available across each version of Dying Light on PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One. Additionally, the developer has declared there will eventually be a more frequent community events schedule that will have up to four events occurring per quarter. Not to mention, the studio also announced it’s working on a new community platform to allow fans to give feedback on impending content and have a voice in determining what some of the upcoming DLC should be.
Interestingly, a new and free piece of Dying Light content is set to become available “in the coming weeks,” but it apparently isn’t one of the promised 10 DLC drops. As it so happens, Techland described it as “a taste of the new things coming to the game, before the ‘10 free DLCs in 12 months’ campaign fully launches later this year.”
Taking all of this into account, it’s great to see Techland still supporting Dying Light for so long since its release back in 2015, especially when one considers the fact that it has two new games in the works. Hopefully, these forthcoming releases will get the same kind of sumptuous post-launch treatment that the survival-horror title has and continues to receive.
Dying Light is available now for PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One.
