Hard Mode is exactly that," quoted the site of producer Tymon Smektala. "We're aiming to have it out around the start of March, if not sooner. Depends on how brutal we wanna make this on people."
Stevivor even reports that one player has claimed to beat the game without the use of any weapons.
The upcoming DLC will be available in various platforms, namely PC, Xbox One, and PlayStation 4, and plans are in place to release official moddling tools for PC.
Since the launch of the game, "Dying Light" has seen over 1.2 million players. As one of the new and exciting games, Techland has faced pressure to maintain the interest of players so this new Hard Mode is the firm's attempt to remain relevant in the long-run.
The game is action-packed and players control an undercover operative -- Kyle Crane -- whose mission is to retrieve data for GRE. As the story of the game progresses, Crane discovers that things aren't quite as they seem and focuses on helping a survivor group, summarized Game Informer.
