Dying Light

Dying Light: Bad Blood

What’s Included

Dying Light: Bad Blood is a separate competitive multiplayer spin-off rather than traditional DLC for the main game. It mixes PvE and PvP, with players looting, crafting, fighting zombies, and then battling each other to be the last survivor and escape by helicopter.

It does not add story missions, map expansions, or campaign content to the base Dying Light experience. The focus is on short, match-based sessions built around scavenging and player combat.

Is It Worth It

If you want more of the main campaign, co-op progression, or narrative content, this is not an essential add-on. It sits outside the core game and does not meaningfully expand the original adventure.

It is only worth considering if a battle royale-style mode inside the Dying Light combat and movement system sounds appealing. Otherwise, most players can skip it without missing anything important from the base game.

Dying Light: The Following

What’s Included

Dying Light: The Following is a large expansion released in 2016 that adds a new story campaign set in a countryside region outside Harran. It introduces a separate map with farms, open fields, and small settlements, along with new missions tied to a cult-like group and a new cast of characters.

The biggest gameplay addition is the drivable buggy, which changes how you move through the world and fight infected. The expansion also adds buggy upgrades, new weapons, and another skill tree built around vehicle use and progression.

Is It Worth It

Yes, this is a meaningful expansion rather than a small add-on. It feels close to a second campaign, with a fresh setting and a different pace from the tighter city areas in the base game. The buggy alone gives it a distinct identity and makes exploration feel less repetitive.

If you liked the parkour, combat, and day-night tension of Dying Light, The Following fits naturally and is easy to recommend. If you only wanted more of the exact same city-based loop, it is more optional, since the open rural map changes the feel quite a bit.

Dying Light: The Bozak Horde

What’s Included

Dying Light: The Bozak Horde adds a separate challenge mode built around a deadly arena run hosted by Bozak, a new character who taunts you through a series of timed combat, parkour, and survival trials. It is not story expansion in the usual sense. The focus is on repeatable gauntlets, score chasing, and unlocking rewards tied to completing its challenges.

Finishing objectives in this mode can earn useful items and eventually unlock the Bozak Bow and its elemental arrow blueprints, which gives it some practical value beyond the arena itself.

Is It Worth It

This is worthwhile if you want a tougher, self-contained mode with clear goals and meaningful weapon rewards. The Bozak Bow is the main reason to care, especially if you like strong ranged options in the base game.

If you mainly want more story, exploration, or open-world quests, this is easy to skip. It feels like a side activity rather than a natural extension of the main campaign.

Dying Light: The Following - Enhanced Edition

What’s Included

Dying Light: The Following is a substantial expansion, not a small add-on. It adds a new story campaign set in a large countryside map outside Harran, along with new quests, characters, and a drivable buggy that changes how exploration and combat work. The Enhanced Edition also bundles in extra updates and improvements tied to the main game.

Is It Worth It

Yes, this is one of the few DLC releases that feels close to essential if you already like the base game. With around 17 hours of playtime, it offers a meaningful chunk of new adventure and a different pace from the city-focused original. The buggy and rural setting make it feel fresh without losing what works about Dying Light.

If you were lukewarm on the base game, this will not completely change your mind. But if you want a proper follow-up rather than a side activity pack, this is the one worth getting.
