Dockets Return in ‘Dying Light: The Beast’ [Trailer]
After hyping up Dying Light‘s 10th anniversary last week, Techland has dropped some news regarding Dockets for the upcoming Dying Light: The Beast. Already a well established tradition since the original Dying Light, Dockets have now been reimagined for The Beast.
For those not in the know, Dockets are codes hidden in plain sight that can be redeemed for exclusive in-game rewards, even before Dying Light: The Beast launches! You can find the elusive codes by watching (and re-watching) trailers, exploring social media, or digging into the lore of Dying Light. Persistence pays off, and with Dockets, it pays off with exclusive gear.
Some dockets are easy to find (including in the tutorial video below), while others are well hidden. They also might have made their way into some older assets – so it’s worth rewatching earlier trailers and checking every combination of letters and numbers that seems to be out of place.
Dying Light: The Beast is the expansion-turned-full-game that revolves around Dying Light protagonist Kyle Crane. After breaking free from a decade of experimentation, Kyle discovers a changed world… and so has he. Explore the once-picturesque tourist destination Castor Woods in a quest for revenge against The Baron, the man responsible for Kyle’s imprisonment. Harness Kyle’s half-human, half-zombie DNA to unleash devastating powers along with his survival and parkour skills, complete with four-player co-op support.
Look for Dying Light: The Beast when it launches on August 22 for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, and PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store.

Limited-Time Crossover Event for ‘Resident Evil Survival Unit’ With ‘Monster Hunter’ Announced [Teaser]
If you haven’t yet checked out Aniplex Inc. and JOYCITY Corporation’s Resident Evil Survival Unit, the free-to-play real-time strategy game has just announced a new collaboration with another Capcom property in Monster Hunter to entice prospective players. Kicking off on July 2 and running until July 29, the limited-time collaboration will introduce Monster Hunter–inspired elements into the post-apocalyptic world of Resident Evil Survival Unit, adding large-scale monster encounters to the game’s strategic systems.
Details on the collaboration are being kept under wraps for now, but during the event, players will be able to participate in collaboration-exclusive in-game events that will earn them special rewards inspired by the Monster Hunter series. We do get a brief teaser trailer for the upcoming event, which in addition to teasing various monsters for players to battle, also promises new units for players to recruit.
Set in a parallel world inspired by the Resident Evil universe, the game features an original storyline and real-time strategic gameplay designed for mobile platforms. Players will build bases, secure resources, and battle creatures in a collapsed city. Iconic characters such as Leon S. Kennedy, Claire Redfield, and Jill Valentine appear throughout the game, allowing for team formations that bring together characters from across the Resident Evil franchise, enabling unique combinations not seen in the original titles.
Resident Evil Survival Unit is available on iOS and Android devices.
