Dying Light: The Beast - IGN Weapon Guide

Author: Nathan Oct 14,2025

Dying Light: The Beast game director Nathan Lemaire showcases the arsenal you'll wield in Techland's upcoming standalone hybrid of first-person melee combat, shooting, and parkour across an open-world action-adventure. Returning as Kyle Crane, you'll exact vengeance against those who transformed you into the monstrous Beast through cruel experiments.

From scorching flamethrowers to brutal (and sometimes corroded) melee implements, the development team has enhanced weapon physics to deliver more visceral environmental interactions than previous Dying Light installments. Watch the official trailer above, and don't miss our exclusive 30-minute extended gameplay preview available below.
