Techland Celebrates 6th Anniversary of ‘Dying Light’ With New Event And DLC
Despite the troubles that Techland continues to have with Dying Light 2‘s development, they’re at least remaining committed to providing the original game more content. In fact, right now they’re celebrating the title’s 6th anniversary with new DLC that adds a new event and more items to the game.
The event, called Zombie Hunt, has you hunting down GRE agents that have turned into zombies. To access this event, you’ll have to find and kill an undead HTU officer known as Hothead Joe. Along with some high-level loot, you’ll be able to claim the “HyperArgument” hammer as a reward.
The first week of the Zombie Hunt event is live until March 3, 19:00 CET across all platforms.
That’s not all the anniversary event has to offer, as the game also has a community goal where you’ll have to help the survivors scattered around Harran. If the community helps enough of them (100 000 survivors, to be exact), then everyone gets a golden katana as a reward. Remember, this all has to be done before March 3rd, so get cracking.
More celebration goodies are expected the week after.
Dying Light is available on PC via Steam, Epic Games Store and GOG.com, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One. Dying Light 2 is currently in development for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, and PC.
Bloober Team appears to have something in the works related to Cronos: The New Dawn. At least, that would appear to be the case, thanks to an accidental reveal ahead of this weekend’s IGN Live event as part of Summer Game Fest.
In the list of title reveals during the event, something referred to as “Cronos: Lazarus” appeared in the list, but was quickly scrubbed. However, not before the internet picked up on it. Adding more fuel to the reveal were two screenshots posted to X by insider Intercelluar, which appear to show the official art. It’s not clear yet, but this is more than likely a new DLC for Cronos: The New Dawn, given that Bloober Team is already busy with multiple other titles, including the Silent Hill remake, and the recently-announced Layers of Fear 3.
If you haven’t checked out Cronos: The New Dawn (and you never read Aaron’s review of the game), the game is set in the haunting ruins of New Dawn, a world inspired by Nowa Huta, a real historical district in Kraków, Poland. Cronos: The New Dawn unfolds across two timelines: a post-apocalyptic future decaying in despair, and the gritty, industrial 1980s reality. This powerful duality blends retro realism, dystopian sci-fi, and a retro-futuristic atmosphere to create a deeply immersive world filled with tension, mystery, and terror.
Players step into the hunting suit of The Traveler — an enigmatic agent of the Collective, sent into zones scarred by the Change, a cataclysmic event that shattered time, memory, and flesh. What remains is a world suspended between past and future — haunted, hostile, and unravelling. Survival is anything but certain.
