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.
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.
