The development has been dogged by reports of misconduct on the part of Techland, and lead writer Chris Avellone was fired from the game after sexual misconduct accusations. The development of Dying Light 2 has been somewhat rocky. A tweet from the official Dying Light Twitter account responded to a fan questioning the game being in development hell by saying it'd simply revealed the game too early. Dying Light 2 was originally projected to have a release date sometime in 2020, but it missed that release window and delayed the game indefinitely. Techland revealed in May that the game would release on Dec. Similarly, Dying Light 2 will have co-op for two to four players, and Techland encourages players to check out how different each player's game is: "Host your own games or join others and see how their choices have played out differently than yours." When will Dying Light 2 release? Dying Light had a co-op mode, which allowed up to four players to join together to take on the hordes of Harran. The day/night also offers high risk/high reward gameplay, as the zombie nests can be looted at night for valuable items such as medicine. Aiden will be fighting humans as well as zombies - both enemies of whatever faction he sides with and others who can't be reasoned with. The game's combat is heavy on melee weapons rather than guns, as shown in Techland's May 2021 gameplay demonstration. This will be especially important at night, when the zombies leave their nests and are considerably more dangerous.

The safest way to navigate the city - which Techland claims is four times the size of Harran - is via the rooftops, and the player will need to take full advantage of Aiden's free-running abilities to avoid being overwhelmed by the zombies on street level. What kind of gameplay does Dying Light 2 have?ĭying Light 2 is a first-person action game, and the main traversal mechanic can best be described as first-person platforming. He will be able to ally with one of the various powerful factions who are vying for control of The City, which will affect not only Aiden, but everyone else in The City. He's looking for his sister, from whom he was separated after they were both subjected to scientific experiments as children.
