Dying Light’s Season Pass is about to get more expensive

Due to the increased scale of Dying Light: The Following, Techland has announced that in December the price of the the expansion and the Season Pass will increase.

"Looking at it, it’s clear how big the expansion pack has grown – it could be a standalone title, but since it would mean a launch delay, we decided against it," Techland said in a statement today.

Starting on December 8, 2015, Dying Light's Season Pass will be sold at $29.99 — $10 more than the originally announced price of $19.99. "We didn't want this to come as a surprise to you, so we're announcing it in advance," Techland said. "This price change will not affect players who already own the Season Pass."

As a reminder, The Following is included in the Season Pass, but you can also purchase it separately. The new price for just the expansion will be $19.99 — $5 more than the originally announced $14.99.

"As promised back in August, our expansion will still be free for all Dying Light Season Pass holders. However since the Season Pass will now include this bigger-than-anticipated addition, we needed to adjust the price accordingly," Techland added.

The good news is, if you're still looking forward to Dying Light: The Following, you still have time to purchase the whole Season Pass at $19.99 before the price increases on December 8th.

Dying Light: The Following is said to offer at least 10 hours of playtime, and will introduce a "massive" new area that's as big as the original maps combined. We still don't have a release date for Dying Light: The Following, but it is expected to launch in the first quarter of 2016. Techland promised some more "cool reveals" will be shared "really soon."

As for the progress of the expansion, it's almost reached its "final stage," with main quests, side quests, new skills, and driving challenges" ready to go. Techland is just now moving into the "polishing period," so hopefully a firm release date isn't too far out.
