- Restored Land's titular new mode could be better, but the improvements made to the rest of the game leave this version of Dying Light: The Beast a better and more expansive one than the one it launched as.
· Mar 28, 2026 Reviewed on PCRead full review - Dying Light: The Beast is a joy to play as a newcomer to the series. If you've been on the fence about the franchise, it serves as a fantastic entry point offering a decently sized map and an addictive gameplay loop that will see you loot, craft, and dismember zombies left and right.

Kevin Dunsmore · Oct 09, 2025 Reviewed on PCRead full review - While it doesn't reinvent the wheel, Dying Light: The Beast is a return to form while it makes up for anything it may lack with the glorious return of Kyle Crane.
· Oct 05, 2025 Reviewed on PCRead full review - Dying Light: The Beast is far from the most original game out there. Hell, it’s not even the most original Dying Light. But we’d be lying if we said we didn’t come away entertained. It embraces its silliness in the best ways across its ridiculous story, gorily violent combat, and fun to explore setting. Some level-gating issues in co-op and duller flatter terrain hold it back in spots, but to us this is the best Dying Light yet.

Graeme Mason · Sep 27, 2025 Reviewed on Series X|SRead full review - In terms of quantity, Dying Light: The Beast deserves the upgrade to standalone release, having first been earmarked as DLC.
