In a clever twist, Dying Light franchise game director Timon Smektala revealed a hidden detail in the first Dying Light: The Beast trailer. This secret clue, barely visible text referencing the vast Castor Woods region, hasn't yet been found by fans. Deciphering this text might even unlock clues about the local dialect, potentially leading to the game's location.

While speculation points to a European setting, the exact location remains a mystery. The trailer showcases numerous buildings and environmental details, but the specific reference point eludes players. Previous Dying Light games drew inspiration from real-world locations: Harran (in the first game) was inspired by Istanbul, Mumbai, and Wrocław, while Villedor (in Dying Light 2) blended architectural elements from Germany, Belgium, and Poland.

Dying Light: The Beast is slated for release this summer on PC, PlayStation, and Xbox platforms, though the precise date is yet to be announced. Techland is celebrating the franchise's tenth anniversary this year with special updates, events, and a thank-you video for the fans' continued support.
