Dying Light 2 is a satisfying and interesting sequel that remains fun even through its numerous faults. Our review: DyingLight2
After years of waiting, Dying Light 2 is here, and although it struggles in some areas, it's a satisfying sequel to developer Techland's 2015 undead hack and slasher. A larger, more vertical world filled with seedy factions teems with possibility and pulls the player back and forth in a moral tug of war. Players fill the shoes of Aiden, an infected pilgrim on a lifelong search for his sister, Mia, who he was separated from as a child.
An old Dying Light 2 gameplay demo suggested that new zombie types and even new areas of the world could be uncovered by making key choices, but nothing like that is actually present in the final game. As a result, the choices only feel impactful in the immediate moments after they're made. Some of them come back around, but rarely in a way that feels noteworthy.
As Dying Light 2 goes on, however, the combat can be fatiguing. Since it's largely melee-based, it can get repetitive. This mostly comes as enemies get more difficult, resulting in more drawn-out fights with bigger crowds. There isn't any gunplay to shake things up or release some tension, meaning variety is sparse, even if the melee combat is consistently gratifying. Since Dying Light 2 boasts 500 hours of content, it would've been nice to have different kinds of combat encounters.
Virtually everything a person could conceivably climb or grapple on to, Aiden can mount and use to his advantage. There's rarely ever a moment where the player is being chased where they can't bounce off some cars, onto some light posts, and propel themselves onto a rooftop. Dying Light 2 has so much verticality and that only increases as the game continues and opens itself up more.
