Dying Light 2 is not dead, quite the contrary. Lots of content and huge changes are coming as early as 2023.
Dying Light 2 is one of the successes of the start of 2022, despite a somewhat chaotic start due to failed optimization on most media. However, Techland reacted very quickly and was able to rectify the situation. As a result, the game sold several million copies and received several free DLCs, as well as a large paid extension. But the biggest changes will be coming in 2023.
Dying Light 2 has big surprises for 2023
For the holiday season, the studio has decided to look back on the success of Dying Light 2 thanking the fans for their patience and loyalty. Although the game quickly walked in the shadow of earlier year’s huge releases like Elden Ring and Horizon Forbidden West, Dying Light 2 succeeded in its bet and was able to seduce several million fans.
As for the first episode, the game will benefit from a follow-up already planned to last at least 5 years. And while 2022 has already welcomed several free and paid content, 2023 could change the game altogether.
The director of the franchise indeed announces that important changes are on the way. He tells us, for example, about the arrival of brand new weapons, enemies never seen before and completely new missions. As a bonus, the gameplay will be retyped as well as the progress in cooperative mode. On this second point, the developer does not give more details, on the other hand for the combat system, we are told of even more brutal, fluid and visceral clashes. A major change that could completely shake up the dynamics of the current game. Let’s wait and see. As a bonus, many additions are expected throughout next year. Further information regarding the future of the franchise will be given on the occasion of the first anniversary of Dying Light 2 next February 4.
Dying Light 2 therefore still has very good days ahead of him and the fans should get their money’s worth. The game is currently available on PS5, Xbox Series, PC, Switch, PS4, and Xbox One.
