Summary
Dying Lightdeveloper Techland has recently filed for a new trademark under the nameDying Light:The Beast, suggesting that some sort of new content could be in the works. Details on what the newDying Lightcontent could be are sparse, but gamers are speculating thatDying Light 2’s second DLC is finally on the horizon with a fan-favorite character set to return.
Ever since its launch in February 2022,Dying Light 2has received a steady stream of content and new DLC expansions for players to dive into. Its first DLC, known asBloody Ties, was released in November 2022 and included a new story for players to unravel, as well as new weapons, locations, and more. One of the most recent pieces of new content to be released wasDying Light 2’s horrifying Nightmare mode, which added a brand-new difficulty setting that takes things to a whole other level.
Back in 2023,Techland delayedDying Light 2’s second DLCexpansion to 2024, but a new trademark could have just revealed the title of the highly anticipated add-on. As spotted by Twitter user Kurakasis, Techland has filed for a new trademark known asDying Light:The Beast. Although merely speculation, fans of the franchise believe this could be in relation toDying Light 2’s second DLC, which could feature Kyle Crane, the protagonist from the originalDying Light. Over on Reddit, user BlackNyarlathotep says that previous leaks indicate this new trademark is indeed for the game’s second DLC. Others agree, with user Robsonmonkey speculating thatThe Beastis an indication of what Crane may have turned into at the end ofDying Light:The Following.
Dying Light Trademark Sparks DLC 2 Speculation
Given that Techland has alreadydiscussedDying Light 2’s future plansand confirmed it would support the game with new content for five years post-launch, the new trademark filing won’t come as much of a surprise to many. But as fans patiently wait for the release of the second DLC, speculation is starting to ramp up.
Given the title of the trademark and Techland’s plans to release a secondDying Light 2DLC in 2024, it wouldn’t be surprising to see one ofDying Light’s biggest mysteries finally solvedwith the return of Kyle Crane. But asDying Lighthas become a smash-hit franchise for Techland, it also wouldn’t be much of a shock to see the trademark be for something completely unrelated toDying Light 2’s second DLC. As the year is drawing to a close, fans should hopefully find out more in the coming months.
