Dying Light: The Following's turning out bigger than expected, so the price is going up

Dying Light's big DLC expansion is getting more expensive, but you can still grab the all-inclusive Season Pass ahead of time at the original price. Developer Techland sent out a letter to players as a simultaneous heads-up of and justification for The Following's slightly steeper price tag.

Dying Light: The Following was originally going to be sold on its own for $15, or as part of the $20 / £15.99 Season Pass. Techland says the expansion, which takes place in a vast wilderness full of new missions and zombie-proofed buggies, has grown into a bigger product than it initially planned. Rather than convert it into a standalone expansion and keep fans waiting, Techland decided to just bump the price up accordingly.

After December 8, the Season Pass will start selling for $30/£23.99, but you can pick it up for the original price before then (or if you already bought it, you're set). The Following will now cost $19.99 / £15.99 on its own when it comes out in the first quarter of 2016.

I got a BA in journalism from Central Michigan University - though the best education I received there was from CM Life, its student-run newspaper. Long before that, I started pursuing my degree in video games by bugging my older brother to let me play Zelda on the Super Nintendo. I've previously been a news intern for GameSpot, a news writer for CVG, and now I'm a staff writer here at GamesRadar.
