Dying Light: The Beast is now live, with Techland’s hub for progression and rewards—Pilgrim Outpost—playing a central role in how you claim items and participate in live activities.

What Pilgrim Outpost is

Pilgrim Outpost (also labeled “Dying Light Outpost”) is Techland’s account portal for the Dying Light series. It’s an all‑in‑one hub where you:

  • Create a single account and connect your PC or console profiles.
  • Complete community bounties and events to earn Pilgrim Tokens.
  • Spend tokens on exclusive gear in the Armory and browse time‑limited Goodies.
  • Enter and redeem codes (including dockets) and manage notification‑based rewards.

The onboarding flow is straightforward: create an account, connect your platform, complete bounties, earn tokens, and redeem rewards. Most game‑linked items are claimed from your Outpost notifications after you’ve connected your platform and played online at least once.

How Outpost connects to The Beast

The Beast integrates several reward paths that are fulfilled through Outpost systems:

  • Pre‑order content (Hero of Harran Bundle): The bundle includes named items such as the Ultimate Survivor outfit, Harran Combat Knife with an upgradeable blueprint, the Follower crossbow, and a pistol inspired by Jade. It was also communicated that owners of Dying Light 2: Stay Human Ultimate Edition receive this bundle for The Beast.
  • Thank‑you gifts and launch giveaways: Techland has published Outpost news posts for items like a Kyle Crane legacy cosmetic and other gifts; claim them from your Outpost notifications after linking your platform and playing online once. The cadence and eligibility can vary by post in the Outpost news section.
  • Deluxe Edition digital items: Tourist maps, wallpapers, and the soundtrack are downloadable via the Deluxe Edition page after you connect your account and have played while online at least once. On Steam, the materials may also be placed in the game’s install directory (Properties → Installed Files → Browse Local Files → “Deluxe Edition Digital Content”).
  • Dockets for The Beast: Techland is hiding docket codes across videos and assets; you redeem these to get exclusive in‑game rewards. The approach is outlined in the Outpost post on dockets. Keep an eye on trailers and older materials—codes can appear in multiple places.
  • Twitch Drops: For drop campaigns, you typically link your Twitch account in Outpost, watch eligible streams, claim the items in your Twitch inventory, then collect them in Outpost notifications for delivery in‑game.

Note: Items delivered via Outpost generally arrive in your in‑game stash once that stash becomes available early in the story. If you don’t see a reward immediately, play online for a short session and recheck your Outpost notifications and your stash.

Feature context: what you’re claiming these items for

The Beast returns Kyle Crane and shifts the series into a heavily atmospheric, open‑area survival horror built around Castor Woods—forests, swamps, tourist zones, and hidden interiors—plus a day‑night cycle where Volatiles dominate after dark. Parkour remains central, with grounded animations and traversal choices (including high‑risk off‑road driving), while combat emphasizes physicality, dismemberment, and constrained ammunition.

If you want a quick refresher on Crane’s arc from the original game through The Following and his captivity by the Baron, Techland published a concise story recap under The Story So Far.

Platforms and performance notes

Dying Light: The Beast is available on PC and current consoles, with Techland’s news feed also calling out platform‑specific status updates such as Steam Deck Verified. On PC, the game supports modern upscaling and latency technologies (e.g., DLSS, XeSS, FSR and counterparts) discussed in the feature highlights article.

Account setup and common issues

  • Create and connect: Set up your Outpost account, then connect the platform you’re playing on. Ensure you are signed in with the platform account that owns the game or the specific edition that grants your bonuses.
  • Play online once: Many items unlock only after the game registers an online session. Launch the game while connected to the internet and reach the point where the stash becomes accessible.
  • Check notifications: Reward grants flow through Outpost notifications. Claim there, then recheck your in‑game stash.
  • DLC toggles: If a pre‑order bundle or edition add‑on shows as purchased but not installed, verify the DLC is enabled in your platform’s library or game properties, then restart the client/console.
  • Processing delays: Entitlements and tracking (e.g., timed play requirements) can take time to sync. If something doesn’t appear immediately, wait a short while and try again after a fresh login.

Where to get official help

For installation, DLC entitlement, connectivity, or crash/performance issues, use Techland’s support portal. For gameplay scope, editions, and platform FAQs, consult the product page. When contacting support, include your platform, edition, account linkage status (Outpost and platform), and any error messages you’ve seen.

Quick start checklist

  • Create your Outpost account and connect your platform.
  • Launch The Beast online and play until your stash is available.
  • Claim any bonus items in Outpost notifications; verify the bundle/DLC is enabled in your platform library if applicable.
  • Enter any docket codes you’ve found via the REDEEM flow on Outpost and check your stash after a short sync.
  • Optionally, link Twitch in Outpost before watching drop‑eligible streams so grants route to your account.

Handled in this order—account, linkage, a first online play session, then Outpost claims—most reward issues resolve without extra steps. If not, capture screenshots of your Outpost connections and platform entitlements and share them with support to speed diagnosis.
