"Dying Light" proved to be a massive success despite the video game market already being filled to the brim with zombie shooters and first-person shooters. Its upcoming DLC, "The Following," has just released its official trailer and the video clip focuses entirely on the ability to customize and weaponize the game's vehicles.

As per GameSpot, the game's producer Tymon Smektała explained that the customizble buggie will become essential in surviving the zombie-filled, open-world landscape. Upgrading the buggie and adding all sorts of weapons won't be the only new feature, however.

"On top of the lethal weapons and upgrades you'll be able to add, there are a lot of cool paint jobs, a number of unmistakable bobble heads and little charms to put inside, so you can really make the buggy your own," he explained in the report. 

Some of the noted additions include flamethrowers, ramming bars, custom UV headlights, roughly 40 different paint jobs and more. The vehicles can also be upgraded and customized not just for aesthetic purposes but also to have better suspension, breaks and road performance. 

With the addition of the new vehicular combat, the game will also come with a few new quests and additional side-missions that will add several hours to the gameplay while also providing far more multiplayer options.

However, according to a report from Game Rant, it is possible the buggies will only be available in the DLC's newly added maps. This is due to how the game separates the game's maps into different sections and it is likely the older areas will not be compatible with the customized vehicles from the DLC.

"Dying Light: The Following" will launch this coming Feb. 9 for the PC, Xbox One and the PS4. The DLC will cost $20 by itself but can also be obtained for free by those who purchased the $30 DLC pass. It will also be included in the "Dying Light Enhanced Edition," which comes with the original game, the DLC, better AI and improved graphics.
