Developer Techland is still churning out Dying Light 2 content as part of a pledge to support the game for years to come. It was only a few months ago that the meaty Good Night, Good Luck update was released, so this is quite surprising to see. No timeline was given, but it's nice to know what's in the works.
In an IGN-exclusive roadmap trailer, we learn that additional co-op missions, board quests, and a tower raid are incoming, as well as replayable GRE anomalies. The Gut Feeling update back in April already overhauled melee mechanics, but it seems extras like executions and finishers are being added as well. Quality of life improvements like graphical options, weapon repairing, gear and mod dismantling are always appreciated.
Two new weapon types, Knives and Polearms, are being introduced, as are more enemy variants, with a Nightmare difficulty planned. Changes are coming to NG+, and firearms are being introduced. Finally, new cosmetic options will let players play dress up to their heart's delight.
Has Techland's continued support for Dying Light 2 enticed you back? Or would you rather this effort was directed at something new? Let us know in the comments section below.

If the game is never finished, I don't want to jump in now for fear missing out on future content and QOL changes once I beat it. First world problems!
HDR would be much appreciated, otherwise I'll probably just wait till I get a PC and enjoy this game in Auto HDR. I feel like that's all the game needs on console though.
Wont buy game until it is done so in a couple of years then.
Better studios make a finished game and then moved on to something else.
@Neverwild
Major difference between unfinished game and just adding constant free content to keep players interested bro. Dying Light was feature complete upon release they just keep adding stuff even though they don't have to. Unlike you I am actually grateful.
@PegasusActual93
So if stuff keeps being added then it is not finished. It's finished when they stop add more.
Why should I jump in now when I can wait a few years, get a complete game and also cheaper.
On launch the game felt finished, just not very good.
Cyberpunk felt like a good game that was unfinished, which diminished the experience
Can a game you feel this way about actually get better?
@Neverwild
This!!
I got Assassins Creed Valhalla and kept putting it off as every time I finished my current game, I'd read there was a new 'update' or DLC for it, so I thought I'd wait until I could get the full experience.
Still not played it, been overtaken by other big hitters so basically sitting on the backlog and money poorly spent (will probably never get around to it now either).
@Sequel
Have you tried Reshade? I use it with all PC games I play and it works better than native HDR.
@Futureshark thats why I like Sony's first party games since not many has dlc. When its dropped its finished most of times.
@Sequel Yeah, the game is great, but I just stopped playing because I knew there'd be so many updates and features added, one of which I hoped would be HDR. I still have a feeling they will add it, but not gonna set myself up for disappointment lol. I would like to finish the game someday though...
I got the plat 373 hours, until some NEW campaign DLC drops ( not bloody ties) I won't fire DL2 back up again.. Im traumatized!!
I played this game at launch and I played it a lot and thoroughly enjoyed it. The updates since then have done a good job fixing the things that were not quite as impressive as the first game. Honestly I like having both of them on my console because they are both worth hopping into just to run around parkouring around slaying zombies for a little while. Especially with a friend!
I hopped into this the other day, having not played it since launch.
It was oddly stuttering frames, the game would stop for a second and then start again. Is this a common issue with the game? Was playing on performance mode, fov was set to default.
On a side note, does a fov increase break the game at all?
