Dying Light: New Game Mode Introduced with Enhanced Challenges

Techland’s Update 1.4 for Dying Light: The Beast introduces several highly requested features, most notably the New Game mode. This update allows players to restart Kyle’s story while retaining their character and gear from their initial playthrough. While players keep their progress and arsenal, the increased enemy difficulty is offset by the availability of higher-tier weapons and items. The challenge increases with each subsequent New Game playthrough. Once players reach level 15, earned XP contributes to Legend Levels, a post-campaign progression system. Legend Points can then be used for permanent improvements such as increased health, enhanced combat stats, and better performance in Beast mode. This system provides continued character development after the main story is completed. The update also includes over 400 bug fixes and enhancements, with a focus on parkour and scenario navigation. These changes address community feedback. Specific improvements and additions in Update 1.4 include: 1. New Game Mode: Replay the story with your existing character and gear. Enemies are tougher, but better weapons and loot are available.

Dying Light: Legend Levels, Ray Tracing, New Finishers & More Updates

2. Legend Levels: An endgame progression system beyond the main skill tree. After level 15, earned XP becomes Legend XP. Higher difficulty settings and New Game levels grant more XP, accelerating progression. 3. Ray Tracing: Available for PC players, enhancing visual fidelity with improved lighting, shadows, and reflections. Enable it by setting the Video Quality Preset to Ultra or adjusting individual options in the Advanced Video Settings. 4. New Finishers: Three new finishers have been added for one-handed blunt, two-handed blunt, and two-handed slasher weapons. 5. Call of the Beast Week 9 Community Challenge: From November 27th at 4 PM CEST to December 4th at 4 PM CET, players can participate in a community challenge with goals of executing 1,000,000 and 2,500,000 finishers to unlock the Gutsbuster Car Skin or Rascal rewards. 6. Parkour and Navigation Fixes: Over 200 fixes address climbing issues, blocked routes, lighting, and shadow rendering, reflecting player feedback. 7. Early Game Streamlining: Reworked stamina curves, added rare weapons near the first campsite during the HUB1 quest, minor UI updates in the Skill Menu, and adjusted reinforcement amounts for noise-generating actions, such as setting off car alarms.

Co-op and Visual Improvements, Account Fixes, Sound Effects Corrections & PSN Wallet Top-Up in Update 1.4

8. Co-op and Visual Improvements: Several co-op issues have been resolved, obstacle destruction logic for vehicle challenges has been improved, and over 70 visual issues—such as incorrect textures, floating assets, clipping models, and misaligned architecture—have been fixed. 9. Account and Quest Marker Fixes: Fixed a popup that appeared when Epic and Steam accounts were linked. Instances of debug strings appearing during gameplay have been corrected, and quest marker functionality has been improved. 10. Sound Effect Corrections: Over 20 missing or incorrect sound effects, including weapon collision SFX and ambient audio, have been fixed in various missions. Techland announced via Twitter (@DyingLightGame) on November 27, 2025, that they are offering the exclusive Bloody Bowie Knife in-game item to players who log in before December 2nd, along with double XP for playing between now and November 30th. With its extensive changes, Update 1.4 represents a significant enhancement to the Dying Light experience.
