Dying Light: The Beast won’t repeat the branching narrative choices of Dying Light 2, all because Techland wants to re-establish an official canon that will “hint at the future of the series.”
Speaking to GamesRadar+, franchise director Tymon Smektala explains that Techland is partly stepping back from the narrative choices that allowed Dying Light 2 players to shape the world around them in an attempt to “get back to what we know from Dying Light 1.” But there’s also a more specific reason that players will have less narrative choice – Techland wants a canon ending that it can build on later.
“We wanted this to be a canon entry into the series,” Smektala explains. “We’re looking back at what happened to Kyle Crane in the first game, and we want to tell the next chapter of the story.” Techland’s looking to really make its own mark, he says, and to do that, the team wants to make sure that Kyle is in the same place for every player by the end of the game.
