Techland wants you to expect Dying Light 2 in February
In a statement shared by Techland to Game Informer, the game’s lead designer, Tymon Smektala, went ahead and confirmed that the base gameplay “is solid and ready to play.” However, Smektala did warn fans that there’s still more work to be done, including “upgrades and tweaks to add, and community feedback to implement.” Of course, this isn’t a cause for concern. The fact that the game has gone gold means that Dying Light 2 is ready to go on February 4, 2022, with Techland probably working on adding the finishing touches to the game. All in all, it’s good news that Techland is confident with Dying Light 2’s, hopefully, final release date. Earlier this year, Techland revealed that Dying Light 2 was going to release on December 7, 2021. Then, at Gamescom 2021, Techland was there to show off the game’s improved parkour mechanics, among other things. Unfortunately, the December release isn’t going to happen. What is interesting here is how Dying Light 2 will fare in a relatively stacked month. Here’s a complete list of all the big games that are confirmed to launch in February 2022, including their release dates:
Life is Strange Remastered Collection - February 1 Sifu - February 8 Horizon Forbidden West - February 18 Elden Ring - February 25 Evil Dead The next big The Division 2 update
If it’s any consolation, Techland isn’t new to flying under the radar. 2015’s Dying Light was also an underrated game that didn’t gain as much attention when it was first released. However, it was still able to build up a loyal following over the years, with many gamers praising its parkour mechanics, combat, and multiplayer component. Knowing Techland, they’re probably not as worried about appealing to the masses as they are making sure that the game makes the core fanbase happy and satisfied.
