When you consider that Dying Light is five years old this, having experienced excellent post-release content, persistent updates and even a unique Battle Royale mode that was released last year, that a newly revealed DLC hits the games' towered civilians an hellish ways, doesn't feel all that surprising.

Dying Light: Hellraid is a paid DLC set to launch later this year (likely in place of the potential lack of Dying Light 2 in 2020, which we now think will be a next-gen only title as the studio's new engine was built with the new hardware in mind), and more interestingly, will take components of Techlands' as yet unreleased high-fantasy project aptly titled, Hellraid.

No one knows where the strange arcade machine came from. One day the residents of the Tower just found it in the basement after an odd power outage. They took it upstairs unaware of what they had come across.

Shake up your Dying Light experience with the upcoming paid DLC introducing a new game mode based on Techland’s unreleased first-person fantasy slasher Hellraid. Explore a new dungeon area, arm yourself with brand-new weapons, and face vicious enemies straight from the depths of Hell. Tackle this fresh challenge alone or join forces with your friends for a thrilling co-op.

Beyond that teaser text, and the embedded teaser video below, not much more is known, but Dying Light on its own still stands the test of time, so we're all in on what the studio can deliver here. We'll have more as it becomes available.
