It's become an undisputable fact that physical copies are getting less frequent these days, and it's not always a guarantee that a big triple-A game will have one at launch. Baldur's Gate 3 didn't have one, Alan Wake 2 didn't have one, and Microsoft has seemingly just decided to stop making physical copies of its first-party games, at least on Xbox.
Well, now we have one more big title that's choosing to go the all-digital route, and that's Dying Light: The Beast. With its September 19 release date fast approaching, developer Techland has been releasing more videos and trailers to try and get fans pumped up. In its latest story trailer, which was uploaded to YouTube earlier today, we saw a little bit more of Kyle Crane and his motivations in the game.
As spotted by Reddit user Jokr_009, one fan in the comments of this video called on Techland to release a physical version of the game. In response, the studio explained that it's currently "focused on applying the finishing touches" to the game, and drops the bombshell that it has "no plans to release a physical edition".
