Techland’s zombie game, which was delayed a few months ago, is congratulating us on Christmas by promising that we will hear from it again very soon.
The calm before the storm … a zombie bite, the better. That is the situation that exists right now in Techland, where silence and work reign since the delay of Dying Light 2 was announced, which was going to be its great launch for this year. A silence that seems to be breaking very soon with “fresh news” according to a Christmas greeting from one of the members of the study, which reads like this: “Happy holidays from the Dying Light team! We can’t wait (“dying”, ba dum tsss) to tell you how these months of development have gone. We will have fresh news on Dying Light 2 in the new year. “
The study said last June that the title was entering “its final phase”, but the truth is that since then there has been an information blackout. They have only skipped it to comment on the Dualsense, Sony’s new control for PlayStation 5, which they said will “change the way you play.” This makes us wonder if, when we hear from him again, Dying Light 2 will also present its version for PS5 and Xbox Series X. In the past, Techland has always made clear its intention to make an intergenerational game, but as in principle it was going to come out much earlier on PS4 and Xbox One than on the new consoles, he was leaving these for later and never got to show the terrifying appearance of his zombies in the next gen. Situation that has probably changed.
For the rest, let’s hope that the new news will be accompanied by more gameplays. There are not too many that we have had of Dying Light 2, although its prequel, considered by many as the best zombie game of the generation, made clear the excellence of a proposal that mixes parkour, blood, zombies and survival. Upon its return, the saga intends to boast of mapping and technical finishing, it will have a cooperative mode for 4 people and in it the new plot choices will be key, capable of completely changing the world through which we will move. Techland has assured that it is its biggest project to date and the desire to see it again cannot be greater.
