Techland has released a brief new video on the road to the launch of Dying Light: The Beast<\/strong><\/em>, offering a glimpse into protagonist Kyle Crane\u2019s emotional struggles. That short video is offset by a new developer diary video that offers a more detailed look at the open world of Castor Woods, parkour and traversal, and the game\u2019s intense physical combat.<\/p>\n

To make Dying Light: The Beast<\/em> \u201cthe most realistic, challenging, and exciting game\u201d in the series, Techland focused on the core gameplay mechanics appreciated by players. As a result, parkour in the game can be described as \u201cimmersive, grounded [and] realistic\u201d.<\/p>\n

For starters, players can go anywhere and climb anything, with grounded and realistic movement. This is coupled with over 100 new animations for Kyle Crane, including 17 unique edge climbing moves. The in-game physics have been tweaked for correct jump height\/length, with the \u201cfloatiness\u201d removed. Players now have total freedom to find multiple paths. Stamina does not limit climbing, but observation is needed to reach hard spots. Finally, there are also no longer any parkour helpers.<\/p>\n

As for the combat, which Techland previewed in a gory trailer last month, things have also been amped up:
