Dying Light: The Beast Revives Iconic Easter Egg, Unlocks Legendary ‘Excalibur‘ Sword
Dying Light 2: Stay Human players are rediscovering a beloved Easter egg from the original Dying Light with the release of The Beast DLC – the chance to wield “Excalibur,” a powerful and meme-worthy sword. The weapon, initially a fan-favorite hidden item, returns with new attributes and a questline involving the collection of eight stone seals.
The reintroduction of Excalibur taps into the original game’s spirit of playful discovery and rewards exploration within The Beast’s expansive new region, Villedor. While not a game-breaking weapon, Excalibur II offers unique bonuses-including increased damage against infected, a massive boost to parkour attacks, and an experience point (EP) gain-making it a desirable find for dedicated players. The sword’s unrepairable nature adds a layer of strategic consideration to its use.
excalibur boasts a base damage of 355, alongside the following bonus attributes:
* +6% damage for infected
* +500% damage to parkour attacks
* +10% EP
Finding Excalibur requires more than simply locating the blade. Players must first locate and collect eight stone seals scattered throughout the game world. A guide to these seal locations is available within the article, promising a “fun scavenger hunt” for those seeking the legendary weapon.
The article concludes with a question to readers: ”What is your favorite weapon in Dying Light so far: The Beast?” encouraging community engagement and discussion around the new DLC and its hidden treasures.
