The temperatures are dropping, snowflakes are falling, and the festive spirit is alive in Dying Light 2: Stay Human once again! Techland is excited to announce the return of the fan-favorite event, Winter Tales: Gifts from Above. The celebration kicks off on December 11th, alongside the release of Patch 1.20, and will run until January 2nd. A long enough time to break in those snow boots and get into the winter holiday spirit!

Here’s what coming in Winter Tales: Gifts from Above

No place to go? Let it snow!

Villedor has been hit by frosty weather, and its citizens are ready to celebrate the festive season. There’s a tree, but it’s missing decorations – where are they? Players must complete bounties from Baka or loot containers to gather trinkets, ornaments, and decorations to dress the tree and spread holiday cheer! As a reward for hard work, players will get presents like the Killer Krampus Outfit and Winter Sweets, which can be spent at Baka’s stall.

Baka’s back with his (festive) shack

Baka’s Halloween stand has been exchanged for something more festive and offers up some great and unique items, including the boomerang-style Skoll, Snowballs, and much, much more. He has also ordered some new stock with the Killer Krampus items, including The Punisher weapon, used to reprimand those naughty zombies. So before taking on any bounties, players have to make sure to check out all of Baka’s wares!

What’s more, with each level increase of Baka’s reputation, players will get a letter they can send to Santa using the box located next to the stall to get an airdrop full of presents.

They will have to make sure to participate in the weekly airdrop challenges as the rewards will change, allowing them to earn the entire Killer Krampus Gear Set. This will keep players invested and tapping in weekly. You gotta collect them all!

Jingle all the slay – new enemy

Uncle Snows and his helpers – the Naughty Infected and Virals—are back and hungrier than ever. Watch out for a new festive zombie, the Ice Spitter, who will shoot icy projectiles. While Naughty Infected can be found all over Villedor, the most formidable Uncle Snows will be guarding precious airdrops. I don’t know about you but this all sounds terrifying!

One more update for 2024…

Alongside the release of Winter Tales: Gifts from Above 2024, we’ll be releasing Patch 1.20. This patch will streamline the Prologue so players can get into the action much quicker, making it the perfect time to jump into the game for the first time or finally return to see what else has changed since your last visit to Villedor.

The patch also addresses various issues, including those relating to crashes and co-op, and several that have been reported by the community, such as the headless Aiden during the stomp animation.

The gifts that keep on giving

This is the season for giving after all, so until January 2nd, all players will be able to grab the Above the Law Bundle completely for free. Just like the Killer Krampus, this bundle is all about making sure those not following the rules get punished, so pick it up and keep law and order in The City.

For those who haven’t yet experienced the world of Dying Light, now is the perfect time! During this festive season, both Dying Light 1 and Dying Light 2: Stay Human are available at discounts of up to 80%.


‘Tis the season for giving, and Techland is doing everything they can to give back to their Dying Light 2 players this holiday season. Mark your calendars for December 11th and get ready to dive into the snowy depths of Winter Tales: Gifts from Above.
