‘Dying Light: The Following’ is Getting a Price Hike
I have good news, and I have some bad news. First, the bad news. Today, Techland announced they’re raising the $14.99 price tag for the upcoming Dying Light: The Following story DLC to $19.99. The good news is it still totally sounds like it’ll be worth it.
“Over the past weeks Dying Light: The Following has almost reached its final stage: main quests, side quests, new skills, and driving challenges are ready.” reads a post on the official Dying Light Facebook page. “We now are moving into the polishing period. Looking at it, it’s clear how big the expansion pack has grown – it could be a stand-alone title, but since it would mean a launch delay, we decided against it.”
If you haven’t been following the, uh, Following, it’s sounds like it’ll be massive. The map it brings with it is larger than every environment in the original game combined, and in addition to that it adds new weapons, missions and dune buggies, among other things.
The reasoning for this price hike is the scale of the DLC has exceeded their initial plans. This won’t affect the season pass, so if you have that go ahead and keep being fancy, you fancy person you. However, starting December 8th, the season pass will cost $29.99. If you’re interested in getting The Following at its current price, I recommend getting it before then.
We have an exclusive first look at A Man in the Woods With an Axe, a blood-soaked, genre-twisting homage to 1980s slasher films.
Spanning four decades, A Man in the Woods With an Axe begins in the summer of 1987 before pushing into the modern era, weaving together timelines and perspectives in a way that builds both dread and intrigue.
Drawing inspiration from genre standouts like Tucker and Dale vs. Evil, Hatchet, and The Cabin in the Woods, the film blends visceral horror with moments of dark humor, creating a uniquely balanced experience that honors tradition while carving its own identity.
Writer-director Dillon Brown (Primal Darkness) aims to deliver everything fans crave from a slasher while boldly subverting expectations with a mid-film twist that redefines the story.
“This is an unapologetic love letter to the films that made me fall in love with horror,” Brown tells Bloody Disgusting. “But I didn’t just want to recreate that feeling; I wanted to challenge it. About halfway through, the film takes a turn that completely changes how you view not only this story, but the genre itself.”
Brown describes the vintage-inspired production as “far and away the bloodiest film I’ve ever made,” with practical effects helmed by Cody Ruch (The Mill, Pig Hill), an instructor at Tom Savini’s Special Make-Up Effects Program.
From Horror Dadz Productions, A Man in the Woods With an Axe is currently in production and targeting an early 2027 release.
