- Nightmare Experience in Dying Light: The Beast
- Nightmare Experience is a new difficulty level for Dying Light: The Beast - designed for seasoned players looking for serious survival experience. It makes Human and Infected enemies stronger, smarter, more aggressive, reacting faster to your actions using their heightened senses. Some Dark Zones may now include Volatiles during the day and gameplay becomes more challenging as resources are limited and they need to be managed more carefully.
- This update also introduces a new Alpha Volatile. This is the most powerful infected in Castor Woods, and the most intelligent Volatile in the history of Dying Light. It tracks your scent, ignores the UV light from your flashlight, and can hunt and follow you across the map until you reach a safe zone or manage to kill it. He’s smart and dangerous, enforcing a careful and strategic playstyle during the night.
- On top of that Nightmare Experience brings new survival mechanics. The Hunger System affects your stamina, health regeneration, and combat efficiency. The longer you ignore hunger, the stronger the penalties become. Additionally the flashlight drains over time and will dim and flicker as the battery gets low, requiring you to craft or find replacements.
- Completing the hardest challenges in this difficulty rewards you with exclusive items, including unique charms, and a special outfit, and a new vehicle skin.
