Contents Release date – Platforms – Trailers – Gameplay & Monsters – Dying Light 2 campaign length – Synopsis and Main Character – Editions – Dying Light 2 release date Dying Light 2 is set to release on February 4, 2022. While initially pegged for a December 2021 launch date, Techland admitted that the game needed a little more \u201cpolish.\u201d For those that want to secure a copy in advance, you can preorder it via Dying Light\u2019s official website, and as an extra treat, you\u2019ll get the Reload Skin Pack. Dying Light 2 platforms Dying Light 2 will be available on PC, PlayStation 4 & 5, and Xbox One & Series X|S. A cloud-based Nintendo Switch edition has also been announced but will not release at the same time as the others. Whether it will also debut on Xbox Game Pass remains unknown, but considering Back 4 Blood was on the subscription service from day one, Techland may follow in their footsteps. Dying Light 2 trailers Gameplay trailer Providing players with another deep dive into the bowels of the unknown, Techland\u2019s May 27 gameplay trailer showcases not just what happens after dark, but the warring Factions that are desperate to tear you limb from limb during the day. The Game Awards CGI Trailer A new trailer debuted at The Game Awards, and gives us a new look at Dying Light 2\u2019s world. Gameplay & Monsters An innovative open-world take on the classic genre, players will be able to explore every little nook and cranny within the new city at their leisure. This is made easier by Aiden\u2019s parkour abilities, which allow players to dodge the pesky undead in style. Additionally, you\u2019ll be able to join one of the game\u2019s three factions. This new mechanic will allow players to dictate how the game\u2019s plot pans out, and adds an extra dose of replayability as you try out each different group in turn. But, of course, no Dying Light game is complete without a terrifying roster of monsters. While you dodge bullets during the day, you\u2019ll be taking to the streets in the dead of night when the Infected come out to play. From the screeching Howlers to the creepy Sleeping Beauties, you\u2019ll have your hands full. Dying Light 2 campaign length In January 2022, Techland revealed that the length of Dying Light 2 was \u201cat least 500 hours\u201d to fully complete every aspect of the game. This led some fans to speculate that the campaign itself could take around 100 hours to complete, with the additional 400 hours being for side quests and exploration. This sparked some rigorous debate amongst fans about quality vs quantity in games. However, since then Techland has clarified their position, stating that the game should actually \u201cfinish the story + side quests in less than 100 hours.\u201d They also stated that the game\u2019s story\/campaign should take around 20 hours to complete. Since then, Techland has produced a tweet explaining the contradiction, and that Dying Light 2 can take over 500 hours to complete if players choose to \u201cmax out\u201d the game. We wanted to clarify our recent communication about the amount of hours required to complete the game.
