Techland has released the official PC system requirements for Dying Light: The Beast. Dying Light: The Beast will be a standalone new game set in the Dying Light universe. So, let’s see what PC you’ll need in order to run it.
In this game, you will assume the role of Kyle Crane, the man whose selflessness during the initial virus outbreak saved many from a fate worse than death. After more than a decade in captivity, you find yourself in a world that’s changed, and not for the better.
The game will take place in Castor Woods. As the devs noted, the world will have natural landmarks, small villages, and industrial complexes, offering diverse traversal options.
Crane will also have some superhuman powers. After years of experiments, the zombie DNA and his are now intertwined so that you are able to unleash a beast-like power.
To run it, PC gamers will need an Intel i5-13400F or AMD Ryzen 7 5800X with 16GB of RAM and an NVIDIA GeForce 1060, an AMD Radeon 5500 XT or an Intel ARC A750. The game will also require 70GB of free disk space. With this PC setup, you’ll be able to run it at 1080p/30FPS on Low Settings.
For gaming at 1440p/60FPS on Medium Settings, you will need an Intel i5-13400F or AMD Ryzen 7 7700 with 16GB of RAM and an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 TI, an AMD Radeon 6750 XT or Intel ARC B580.
For 4K/60FPS with High Settings, the devs recommend using an Intel i7-13700K or AMD Ryzen 9 7800X3D with 32GB of RAM and an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 TI or an AMD Radeon RX 7900 GRE.
Finally, for 4K/60FPS on Ultra Settings with Ray Tracing, you will need an Intel i9-14900K or AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D with 32GB of RAM and an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070, an AMD Radeon RX 9070, or an Intel ARC B580. The devs claim that you’ll need Frame Gen, and that you will be able to enable the Ray Tracing effects. Techland will use Ray Tracing to enhance the game’s Global Illumination and Reflections.
Dying Light: The Beast will be released on September 19th.
Enjoy and stay tuned for more!

the fact the b580 is both on medium and ultra but not on high is weird.
Not weird, just stoopid!
These requirements are always just a show, it NEVER represents reality.
For years now I have suspected that a lot of system requirements are coming from the marketing dept from developers. Many are out of touch with tech hardware. Many don't make a lot of sense. Best to wait for reviews to see what's really required or recommended.
I’ll go even further… Best way is to just look at the thing and compare to a thing you’re already running. On the PC we know how to tune these propaganda softwares to make it run better, so basically if your rig runs the latest stuff, it will run most of them at the same quality.
Pretty sure there's an error. You can't compare Arc B580 to those other GPUs on ultra, lol.
Take a good gander at the "supported techs" below the specs!
Take a gander and laugh as much as you want!
LMAO
DEI devs really think those aren't part of the basic stuff, which says a lot about the quality games we're getting lately (for a long time now! sigh)
Btw, here's the finger for these DEI devs and their cr4ppy propaganda…

That's hardly basic stuff, i don't want stupid dlss, xess or whatever, i want a game that is good looking and optimized enough that i don't need to turn that crap on.
Forget the dvmb stuff made for reeeeeeetärds that love fake numbers, I’m talking about the rest, like ultra-wide support, HDR and ray tracing.
I mean, if they’re putting those on the specs, the product is shallow!
Dying Light "2" is a slop, on release it was a very unoptimized mess.
I have zero faith in Techland CHINA (mf's sold they company to Tencent)
It certainly looks better than Dying Light 2, Techland even acknowledged the game wasn't up to par and that this was an attempt at fixing the wrongs in that game.
Yes because in order to business in China, the Chinese government JUST on a stake in your company. Instead of taking China to fuq off, they say it's a market they can't ignore because of 1 billion people. They'd sell their mother if it meant they could have her pearls.
Capitalism 101. No crime is unthunkable as long as the 300% profit is on the horizon.
you say this when even china has become capitalist now. Also under communism people stole office supplies to feel they are getting something for their free slave work. At least these people are now set for life by selling the company.
A lot to unpack here.
1. China is as capitalist as the come, yes. Actually now vying for the 1st spot in the looming war with US because all economic and diplomatic options are depleted.
2. There has never been a single country were communism was built. There were socialist countries – those on the way to communism.
And yes, people in the late USSR stole supplies from their places of employment but that was when Soviet Union was socialist in name only and was heading fast towards capitalism.
3. Their work wasn’t either free or slave work. They got a lot of benefits like free education, free healthcare, free housing – all which are long gone by now. Which why Russian population is in heavy decline.
That's not capitalism though, that's greed. I agree with you but people need to stop lumping capitalism with insanity. The definition of capitalism is VERY clear. The problem is like everything else, greed. As a matter of fact, they are under a communistic system. But as in the name "Capital ism" Everything needs capital in order to function. One of the biggest problem with capitalism is that it's never allowed to flourish on it's own, their is always socialism in the background dragging it down. Moist soveriegn countries liek teh United States have heavy patche sof socialism.
Like i said, EVERYTHING needs capital, the money has to come from somewhere. Last time i check governments have no money, they steal it all from the people. I don't want lecture anyone on this issue, but it grinds my gears when people conflate greedy with capitalism. When all capitalism does is allow you to get paid for your work. For the last 25 years it's been the cool thing to hate on capitalism.
It's very easy to see that the people conflating capitalism with every other nonsense doesn't understand it's meaning or function. With that said, every system is capitalistic, they usually hide behind some other entity but make no mistake about it, you need capital to start just about any venture. Why? because it simply just works.
That's just a lot of words about nothing. Greed is an inherent feature of capitalism. Capitalism begets and encourages greed, individuality and being a greedy bas**rd.
Any country that has private propery on means of production (factories, land, housing etc.) is not communist in any way. But a very clearly a capitalist one. Any country that has millionaire and billionaires is a capitalist one.
Capital tends to accumulate and if you are as a capitalist do not accumulate capital then you fail in this capitalist ratrace and get proverbially eaten by those who do accumulate capital and would stoop to anything.
They had when USSR was alive and served as the alternative and made the US to make social concessions to its workers. Not anymore it doesn't.
Money is a feature of commodity production. It's painted paper for god's sake. Under communism there will be no money as we know it today.
It's not a fashion trend, man. People just look around and see how their lives changed compared to previous generations. Gen Z are now waking up and make boatloads of youtube videos about how their parents generation could afford houses, education, cars etc. and how they (gen Z) cannot.
Again judging by the only thing you know and have known from birth. You don't know any other system and feel like capitalism is the end of history like Francis Fukuyama wrote in his idi0tic book.
People don't need to be business owners, hell most industries (like education, healthcare, space undustry, utilities etc.) should never be owned by any person from the Forbes list. The government, which should be true people's representatives, should govern those industries. But that would make it so you could not benefit from suffering of the others by making a heft profit off of them and capitalism can't have that.
did not know that, interesting.
Well verifying your statement, Tencent have a majority stake and that is different to owning outright.
Well verifying your statement, Tencent have a majority stake and that is different to owning outright.
If you have majority of shares you effectively own the company as you as the major shareholder can enforce any decision you want to be made.
Anything above 50% ownership gives you control. If Tencent owns more than 50%, then they effectively run the company.
really?
Not slop, it was somewhat rough at release but it's been constantly and massively updated since release, now it's very polished.
Same as DL1, which just recently got an enhanced edition, for the 2nd time, after 10 years, and for free.
There's no negative influence from Tencent on this game.
So just stop talking BS if your absolutely clueless.
Wow, that's pretty high CPU requirements.
Bloated cpu requirements
Wrong. CPU single-core performance is holding back gaming.
7800X3D for 60 FPS without RT is bad….
and as always take sys.req. from developers with a grain of salt.
In the end it also matters how well optimised the game is
Any word on Denuvo?
Looking at the specs… bet its there and responsible for half the cpu load as its no excuse otherwise for that silly high cpu specs
Ryzen 9 7800X3D as recommended high ?? CODE RED!! Bad optimization incoming
Why is there a CPU difference between Medium and High with no RT enabled, and what's up with Arc B580 being at 2 places at once. They are just talking out of their a**es, aren't they
ryzen 7 5800x as minimum cpu? this is a joke right? this game also released on PS5 which cpu was on par with ryzen 7 3700 with lower speed and 2 core disabled. are they targetting ps6?
really cool what they're doing with the dying light 2 die hards. I hope it turns out well and the game's specs make it seem like itll be well optimized hopefully.
What exactly have they done with the "die hards"?
I use Die Hards colloquially for people who bought the Dying Light 2 Collector’s Edition. Apparently everyone who purchased that version gets a copy of the new game for free, I could have messed up some of the details.
Ok, that’s a cool gesture.
The ultra high-end spec is confusing, a) why is there no 9800X3D, a 7950X3D seems overkill and b) wtf would they recommend a 14900k when the reliability issue with that CPU is still ongoing.
I have been looking forward to this games, but News that Tencent has a majority share of the TL means this may well be the last game I buy from them.
What exactly does Tencent do to prevent you from buying a game?
Epic are owned by Tencent, Tencent are owned by the CCP – I would have thought that much was common knowledge..
And?
Specs are very well laid out here and love the technical details as well. Wish all devs did em like this.
