The wait is almost over!

Dying Light: The Beast launches in just a few hours — here are a few important updates before you jump in:

Update your GPU drivers

For the smoothest gameplay and maximum stability, please update your GPU drivers before launch to:

Nvidia GeForce Game Ready 581.29 (or newer)
Intel Game On Driver 32.0.101.7029 (or newer)
AMD Adrenalin 25.9.1 (or newer)

Ray Tracing update

You may have seen NVIDIA’s recent blog highlighting our ray tracing features -

To deliver the highest possible quality and stability at launch, we’ve decided to temporarily disable ray tracing while we finalize some last-minute optimizations. This is a top priority (P0) for our team, and we’re working to enable it as quickly as possible after release.
