Dying Light 2 is edging closer to its December release date, and here’s a gameplay trailer from Microsoft’s Gamescom press conference to get you in the mood. The moody two-minute clip focuses on the various factions you’ll encounter throughout the campaign, and slips in some parkour traversal and acrobatic combat along the way.
At this point, we’ve already seen a fair amount of gameplay from the Techland sequel, so there are no real surprises here. Some of the navigation looks a little bit awkward to us, but as long as it feels tight and responsive with the DualSense in hand then that’s the most important part. We like the look of the first-person combat, which seems particularly over-the-top.

What is this a clickbait article to advertise Xbox?!
HOW DARE YOU!!!!
NOTE: Joke.
Blimey did MS actually find time to show gameplay among the hour long plus show of talking?
Day 1 for me. Loved the first game.
I just finished the first one, and I must say it's super average. Don't get me wrong, it's a good game but I found it to be a bit uninspiring.
Not sure if they confirmed it but they need to add narrative choices to the sequel, something that really p*ssed me off in the first 😂
Am I the only one that thought this looked bad? What was up with the combat it looked super janky. I played the first and lost interest in it, but I know people who love that game.
@Fenbops I don't know if it's just this trailer, but the parkour moves look a bit off to me. As if they're slowed down a little? I dunno, I think I know what you mean.
See a whole lot of replaying here. Different factions, character choice of save/kill, a whole lot more verticality and humor. Looks great, can’t wait.
Man I loved the first and this looks better in every way. They have massively expanded the parkour options with some super cool new abilities and the combat looks deeper and improved. I can’t wait for this and am there day one

You’ll love the first game…
Being chased at night by the night stalkers (or whatever they were called) trying to reach a safe house was terrifying! lol
Didn't like the trailer. Tagline is 'Stay Human', but they seem Superhuman. I mean, slamming an axe into the ground causing several people several feet away to fall over. Is this dying light or a Marvel Thor game....
This game has me bricked up
I keep forgetting this releases at the end of the year.
This is the first game that makes me want to get a ps5.
Almost Spider-Man parkour and human enemies reminiscent of Mad Max. Definitely does not look like the first Dying Light. That's probably good considering the vast number of hours i have played the first game. My hopes still remain high for DL2 to be a game that i can add to my favorites list.
@lolwhatno
We’ll you weren’t alone….I usually made sure I got back just prior to darkness but I did indeed go out at night on occasion only to be chased and I don’t think my ticker could take it! Lol
Looks like fun but confused by them re-using the same voice actor from the first game to promote this.
