To summarize, here is everything series fans can expect this year from Techland:

• Spring 2025: Summer Update for DL2
• Summer 2025: Summer Event for DL2 | Dying Light: The Beast launch
• Fall 2025: Halloween Event & Fall Update
• Winter 2025: Winter Tales Event

Much of these are expected annual events, but there's more, including further enhancements to the latest out series entry. This includes new gear, weapons, improved visuals, and so on. To elaborate further on the changes slated for the 2022 open-world zombie parkour game, here's what is on the horizon:

• Permanent release of Tower Raid
• New Tower Raid characters
• New Firearms and Melee Weapons
• New Weapon Class
• Free Outfits and Gear
• Co-op Gameplay and Matchmaking
• Community Map Support
• Prologue Improvements
• Graphical and Technical Improvements

This is on top of the arrival of the upcoming series entry dubbed The Beast, where players step back into the shoes of series protagonist Kyle Crane after the events of the first game, as he explored an all-new sandbox in a new story. This is meant to be the first step in a rebranding for the series as the "ultimate zombie experience" on the gaming market.

Beyond 2025, however, fans can look forward to multiple unannounced projects in the pipeline as well as additional media offerings like a board game, webcomic series, merchandise, and more to attract a wider audience. So, with Techland seemingly focused on expanding the IP, the future of the franchise looks bright.
