As shown off, inner subway tunnels and the building basements where the dead infest during the day suddenly are empty at night – since, of course, they’re all out on the streets after your head. Perhaps the most interesting part of Dying Light 2 is how regions will actually change from day to night. They suggested that the night sequences of Dying Light 2 will be even more intense and terrifying in contrast to 1, which were heart-thumping enough by themselves.īut night offers up its own rewards too for sticking out. Techland have gone all out to make the contrast harsh, as night sees the city streets swarmed by zombies and terrifying special infected types out for your blood. For Stay Human day is filled with the trivialities of human squabbling’s and combat, but at the night Villedor very much belongs to the dead. Good Night, Good LuckĪs with the first Dying Light the divide between day and night is core to the game’s central conceit. We’re not sure if there will be scope to actually become a zombie or if it is just a narrative ploy to keep up the urgency of the game, but if we do get to become a parkouring zombie gaming will quite possibly have peaked. You’ll have to work to manage your descent into zombie-dom. And, of course, it holds the double meaning of quite literally trying not to become a zombie too, as your protagonist Aiden Caldwell looks to be struggling with an oncoming turning process. This world has perhaps lost its humanity in more than one way as we come up against each other. Its subtitle, Stay Human, refers to lines which certain aspects of humanity are crossing in conflict with each other. Will you force your friend to drop into the streets below and leave them for dead? Or actually work together to turn the tide of the zombie fight? WE know our answer…Īs much fun as dropping friends into trouble might seem, Techland, perhaps quite ambitiously, envision these types of decisions as core to the central tenet of Dying Light 2. Dying Light 2 brings in 4 player co-op with a simple drop in/drop out system to boost the fun of running around the city with a group of friends. As Techland put it, with 4 player co-op you might step into a friend’s game and find a vastly different world to your own. This system looks also set to influence precisely how you play since different factions will presumably offer up different types of abilities to favour varying playstyles. How you interact and choose to work with each faction will change your story, supposedly. There are lawful vigilant factions, made up of old police and guards criminal outlaw warring factions the agricultural types and so on. Different factions will have differing environmental impacts on how you might traverse through the city, for example, or the weapons with which you can fight back against the undead.

Throughout the event Techland stressed the importance if picking your factions and friends carefully as every little thing you do can have an impact on how the world around you shifts.

This faction system is the main makeup of Dying Light 2 by the looks of things. Villedor is a city split up by different warring factions that have all chose their own ways to live.

We pick up 15 years after Dying Light and humanity has settled into a new way of living. With a missed 2020 release and an evidently long time in development, this latest “Dying2Know” event really showed off quite why Dying Light 2 has had such a prolonged release schedule – and the results certainly look worth the wait. Now, finally, we have a better, fuller look at the massive expanse of Dying Light 2: Stay Human and a final releases date of December 7 th, 2021. The follow up to Techland’s parkour zombie action shooter was first teased at E3 2018 with further glimpses shown at each E3 since. If it feels like you’ve been hearing about Dying Light 2 forever that’s because, quite simply, you have.
