Dying Light: The Beast Restored Land Edition arrives as free upgrade for all players

Following on from an initial tease earlier this week, Techland has now officially announced Dying Light: The Beast Restored Land Edition. This new and enhanced version of the game delivers a major free content update, designed around giving players a more challenging survival experience.

In Restored Land, players will find themselves needing to clear out infected from major points of interest across the map, thus ‘restoring the land'. Once an area has been restored, survivors will reappear in the world and return to their normal lives. However, you will need to carefully plan your assaults, as loot no longer respawns, containers provide fewer supplies and shops have reduced stock and higher prices. Survival mechanics are also intensified, with players needing to manage hunger and replace depleted torch batteries as they go.

If you are crazy enough to enable it, there is also a One Life option, which will wipe your save if you die and forcing you to start over again from square one, with the map fully overrun by infected. Completing the game with this setting will net you some special rewards though.

Other new content packed into the new Restored Land edition includes Roadkill Rallies, a vehicle combat challenge that rewards zombie slaying and route optimisation across the open world. The new update also brings 33 new quest encounters, new brutal finisher animations, new achievements and new hidden stashes across the map. There are also new high-risk zombie encounters across the map that will reward the player with better loot.

Dying Light: The Beast Restored Land is a new enhanced edition of the game that packages together the base game, all previous DLC, along with the new content. Players who already own the standard edition of Dying Light: The Beast will get the new version as a free upgrade.
