This winter, expect all manner of new things to show up in Villedor: a festive bundle, an awesome event, a brand new update – and maybe even some snow?
Wrocław, Poland – 14 Dec. 2023 – Seasonal event, a new outfit, and some good update content – this is what Techland is offering players at the close of the year.
Winter Party
Dying Light 2 Stay Human goes festive for another winter celebration. Starting from Tuesday, 19 Dec. at 7 am PT / 9 am ET / 3 pm GMT, Villedor will sparkle with the Gifts from Above event. Players will be able to stroll through the city adorned with seasonal trimmings, look for Santa Airdrops, and even fight Uncle Snow for presents. There are also goals to be met and rewards to be won – including the Winter Elf gear and outfit and the cute Gingerbread Infected Charm.
The mood will be heightened with a visit to Baka’s Winter Market store by the Bazaar. There, players can spend all the Sweets gathered by killing Naughty Infected. The latter may even be caught wearing very merry seasonal getups – it’s probably due to all that snow falling from the sky. The wintry fun will come to a close on Friday, 5 Jan. 2024, at 3 am PT / 5 am ET /11 am GMT.
Naughty or nice
There are a bunch of very festive items coming to Dying Light 2 Stay Human around the time of the Winter Tales. Some of them are assembled in the Grim Santa Bundle with the Grim Santa Outfit, Gear, Paraglider, and North Polearm weapon as well as blueprint, available at the in-game store for 500 DL Points. Techland is also giving out the Hakon Bundle for free as part of the Winter Tales Event, starting on Tuesday, Dec. 19.
Under the Tree
Techland will gift players with another portion of promised changes. The Winter Tales Update will contain a stocking full of joys, such as new enemy variants, new weapons – along with some striking surprises, such as exploding knives and shurikens – more finishers, and the long-awaited PlayStation 5 cross-gen save. With the majority of the significant new content coming in the next update, this one is ready to do its best to tide everyone over.

Infiltrate a religious cult living under the doctrine of “What if hell lays not below us…but above?”
VANCOUVER, Canada — Dec. 14, 2023 –Bahnsen Knights, the third visual novel in a series inspired by early 20th century pulp fiction and ‘80s home computer graphics, highlights the horror of man today on PC and Mac via Steam & GOG. The apocalypse arrives on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5|4, Xbox Series X|S, and Xbox One on Thursday, Jan. 18, 2024.
The religious cult known as the Bahnsen Knights reigns terror on the highways as biblical storms rain havoc on the population. Their leader, a former car salesman named Toni, preaches hell is not below us, but above, as he leads the Ford Sierra-driving cultists across the country, performing “route exorcisms” along the way.
Infiltrate this cult as Boulder, an undercover agent attempting to dismantle them from within while hunting the whereabouts of his missing partner, Cupra. Establish trust with cult members to navigate hostile waters without arousing suspicion. Reveal their intentions as a cryptic collective and undermine their achievements via minigames, puzzles, and choice-based, branching storylines that can lead Boulder to the solution…and a number of grisly demises.
Bahnsen Knights serves as a standalone story in the Pixel Pulps anthology, a series of interactive fiction tales inspired by early 20th century pulp fiction with its over-the-top tales, and art paying homage to 1980s home computer graphics. Jump into the series for the first time and enjoy a brisk, 2-hour tale full of chills and thrills, while fans of Mothmen 1966 and Varney Lake can reunite with paranormal investigator Lou Hill…and find out why he’s locked in the trunk of a car.
“Bahnsen Knights is utterly human in a shared universe with cryptids and vampires,” said Shintaro Kanaoya, founder and CEO of Chorus Worldwide, “And it’s all the more grim for it. LCB really explores the malleability of the human psyche here, and how the potential horrors mankind can unleash unto itself can install a special kind of terror than no mythical creature could conjure.”
Bahnsen Knights launches today on PC and Mac via Steam and GOG for $9.99 / €8.99 / £8.49 with support for English, Spanish, German, French, and Japanese languages. The Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5|4, Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One versions arrive on Thursday, Jan. 18, 2024. Pick up Bahnsen Knights at a 10% launch discount, with additional discounts as part of the Pixel Pulps bundle available on digital storefronts.
Based in Buenos Aires, Argentina, LCB Game Studio was formed by novelist Nico Saraintaris and artist Fernando Martínez Ruppel. The pair first met in 2012 while working on literary projects, forming their own book publishing house known as Literatura Clase B. Since then, they’ve collaborated on short stories, illustrated novels, video games, comics, and non-traditional narrative experiments. Now, Saraintaris and Ruppel are creating “Pixel Pulps,” a fusion of fast-paced writing and stunning illustration inspired by mid-20th century pulp fiction and ‘80s home computer graphics.
