Dying Light: The Beast won't repeat the branching narrative choices of Dying Light 2, all because Techland wants to re-establish an official canon that will "hint at the future of the series."
Speaking to GamesRadar+, franchise director Tymon Smektala explains that Techland is partly stepping back from the narrative choices that allowed Dying Light 2 players to shape the world around them in an attempt to "get back to what we know from Dying Light 1." But there's also a more specific reason that players will have less narrative choice - Techland wants a canon ending that it can build on later.
