Today, Techland has confirmed the final PC system requirements for Dying Light: The Beast. The new entry in the popular first-person open world action zombie game was originally scheduled to launch on August 22, but the Polish studio announced a slight delay to September 19 in order to apply more refinements and tweaks.
The requirements are quite a bit higher than those of Techland's previous game, 2022's Dying Light 2: Stay Human, indirectly confirming the upgrade of the underlying Chrome Engine that the developers have been touting.
