2. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Sewer

While completing the Hydro Puzzle side quest, take a detour in the sewers to find one of the most fun easter eggs in the game. Behind an exploding zombie, you’ll spot four pizza boxes and a rat, a clear nod to the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles in Dying Light: The Beast—with Splinter as their mentor.

3. Cast Away Island

Close to the Mist boss fight during the First Blood quest, you’ll find a deserted island featuring a raft, a tent, and a ball—an unmistakable reference to Tom Hanks’ survival drama Cast Away. Fans of the movie will instantly recognize the homage.

4. Walking Dead – "Don’t Open, Dead Inside"

During the A New Strain story quest, when activating a safe house, head into the basement. On the wall, you’ll find the iconic phrase: "Don’t Open, Dead Inside". This is a direct callback to The Walking Dead TV series and comics, referencing the doors keeping walkers locked away.

5. Harry Potter Platform 9¾

Near the Monastery during the Safe Haven quest, you’ll come across a collapsed tunnel and broken railroad. On the wall, you’ll see 9¾ painted—confirming a Harry Potter Dying Light: The Beast easter egg. Just like in the films, this wall transports you into something magical.

6. Minecraft Corridor

Beyond the Harry Potter tunnel, the wall lets you pass through into corridors filled with Minecraft-style blocks. Break your way through cubic walls just as you would in Mojang’s sandbox classic. This clever crossover makes exploring feel fresh and nostalgic.

7. Golden Train & Glova Weapon

Deeper inside the tunnel, you’ll discover a golden train, inspired by the legend of a hidden Nazi gold train in Poland. Here, you’ll also find Golden Tickets and the powerful Glova weapon in Dying Light: The Beast—a fan-favorite returning item. Collecting this makes for both a fun reference and a valuable in-game reward.

8. Shrek’s House

Near the Memorial Hill of Heroes, while searching for the Curse Sigil, you’ll stumble upon a structure resembling Shrek’s swamp house. Inside the skeleton’s mouth is the sigil itself, blending humor with the game’s dark fantasy setting.

9. Bicycle Time Trial

Finally, head to a marked map location to discover a hidden bicycle race. Players can ride down the hill through 16 checkpoints. Completing the race within one minute rewards you with a gold trophy. It’s a lighthearted break from the game’s otherwise intense combat.

These are all the confirmed easter eggs in Dying Light: The Beast so far, ranging from movie and TV references to gaming throwbacks and hidden weapons like Glova. Techland has always been generous with secrets, so it’s safe to say more will surface in the coming weeks.
