It's pleasing to see that while most titles are revealed years before their eventual release, Dead Island appears to be approaching the tail end of its development mere weeks after its first full teaser trailer, which is a marketing approach we'd love to see more of. Although the trailer's emotional tendencies weren't really reflected in our preview session, and that certain elements felt similar to other zombie titles on the market, this doesn't stop Dead Island from appearing to be a tantalising and unique prospect - one that could prove to be a real surprise when it launches later this year."

Dying Light: The Beast is Steam Deck verified, Techland announced today!

Techland: “Game development is never a straight line, and sometimes fresh approaches are necessary to make great games. What’s important here is that none of the reported changes have resulted in staff reductions. Developers were moved to other projects and are working on a number of games in our pipeline.
Our primary focus right now is to release Dying Light: The Beast for PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S. After the launch of Dying Light: The Beast, we will share more about future titles in due time.”

Techland, the studio behind the Dying Light franchise, has recently registered a new trademark for a project titled Dying Light: The Beast.
