About the Game
Dying Light: The Beast is a first-person zombie action-adventure about hunting the people who turned you into a monster.
Dying Light: The Beast is an action, adventure and role-playing game set in a post-apocalyptic zombie world, played from a first-person view. You take on the role of Kyle Crane, who has endured 13 years of brutal experiments and escaped as a creature that is part human and part beast. Your goal is to track down the people who created you, but the valley you return to has its own dangers. The region was once a popular travel destination, and now it holds surviving communities, rival factions, and strange creatures that have claimed the forests as their hunting grounds.
The core loop is built around a day and night split. During the day you explore, scavenge for supplies, and keep an eye on the sun as it sinks toward evening. When night falls, the mood shifts sharply, and you have to decide whether to run, hide, or fight it out. Movement is one of the strongest parts of the design, with first-person parkour that lets you climb obstacles and leap from rooftop to rooftop, then take to the road in an off-road vehicle to plow through zombie crowds.
The world is varied, moving through tourist towns, industrial areas, national parks, farmland, and swamps, all blended into a look that mixes beauty and decay. Combat is intentionally violent, and the game pushes its brutality to extremes while you try to keep control of your character's growing, rage-fueled beast side. Friends can join in, with up to four players sharing battles, exploration, story moments, and progress.
Feature Highlights
- Co-op play lets up to four players tackle the valley together, sharing combat, exploration, and story moments.
- Day and night cycles change the experience, with dusk forcing a choice to run, hide, or fight.
- First-person parkour lets you climb obstacles and leap from rooftop to rooftop across the open world.
- Off-road vehicles can be driven straight through zombie crowds, adding a sense of open-world freedom.
- Full controller support includes DualSense controller support, with Steam Cloud available for your saves.
- Remote Play on TV and Family Sharing are both listed as supported features on the Steam page.
Who It Is (and Is Not) For
Recommended For
This game suits players who enjoy open-world zombie action with a strong sense of movement, especially those who love parkour and the freedom of driving through hordes. It is also a good pick for friends who want to tackle a violent, story-driven world together in co-op for up to four players. Players who like survival tension, where the difference between day exploration and night danger really matters, will likely get the most out of it.
Not Recommended For
Players who dislike graphic, gory combat should skip this one, since the game is built around brutal fights and the store page highlights extreme violence. It is also a poor fit for anyone who wants a light or low-tension experience, because the nights are meant to be frightening. Readers who need full spoken-language audio in Traditional Chinese may want to look elsewhere, as explained in the caution notes below.
What the Steam Reviews Say
Dying Light: The Beast carries a Steam review label of Very Positive (極度好評 on Steam Taiwan), with 86 percent of its reviews being positive. The number of reviews runs into the tens of thousands, which is a large enough sample that the overall score is a meaningful signal and not just the opinion of a handful of early buyers.
On Steam, a Very Positive label generally means that a strong majority of players recommend the game and that a large number of reviews support the rating. A high percentage with a big review count is usually a reliable sign of consistent quality, though it still does not guarantee that every player will enjoy the same aspects. When review counts are small, a single high or low score can swing the picture dramatically, so the larger volume here makes the label easier to trust.

All prices in this section are Taiwan Steam store prices in NT$. The current price is NT$ 849, which is a 50 percent discount from the regular price of NT$ 1699. The highest price we have recorded is NT$ 1699, while the lowest paid price we have recorded is also NT$ 849, first seen on 2026-09-15. That means the current price matches the lowest level in our record so far.
The game is discounted often in our records, so waiting for a sale is not unusual for this title. We have not recorded any free-to-keep promotion for it, so the only way to get it at a lower cost is through a paid discount. Our price record is still short, so this verdict is tentative.
Whether now is a good time depends on how you feel about the price. Paying NT$ 849 is half the regular price and matches the lowest level we have seen, so it is a reasonable moment to buy if you are ready to play. If you are patient, adding it to your wishlist and watching for further drops is a sensible approach, and we will keep updating the price trend on this page.
