Dying Light devs are making a "next-gen" fantasy RPG game

Dying Light 2 developer Techland has taken the always-puzzling step of announcing an 'unannounced' game. While the studio, which has made a name for itself producing open-world zombie games, isn't ready yet to talk about the story or even the title, it says it is working on a triple-A, open-world RPG game that it describes as a "fantasy epic," and it's recruited some top game development talent to help build it.


While story specifics are scarce at the moment, Techland has shared a first piece of concept art for the upcoming RPG game (above). A figure in traveler's robes stands in the foreground, gazing out over a confluence of two rivers that spill over waterfalls. Ancient ruins and statues are built on the banks, with a network of crumbling pillars and archways still standing in the turbulent water.


The scene appears to be set in a mountain jungle or rainforest setting, and the ruins appear to be influenced by ancient Roman and Aztec styles. In the distance, more structures can be seen. One of these has a green tiered roof, reminiscent of east Asian pagodas.

Dying Light 2 DLC is delayed, now set for September

Some Dying Light 2 DLC has already arrived, but fans of Techland's zombie game will have to wait a little longer for a big story update, as the developer has announced that the first major Dying Light 2 DLC is delayed. Previously planned for release in early summer, the story expansion has been pushed back and will now target a September release date "to meet your expectations by giving it the absolute highest level of polish."


Techland has already implemented several requested features, with a Dying Light 2 NG+ mode arriving in April as well as improvements to the co-op. The developer says it still plans to release the first game chapter, 'In the Footsteps of a Nightrunner,' in June, which will include a selection of content and events. The much requested photo mode is also due to arrive next month.


Lead Designer Tymon Smektała told us at GDC that Dying Light 2 DLC will be big and unexpected, with plans for it to be at a similar scale to that of the first game. Smektała says that, despite much speculation, "No one has guessed what we are hoping to do." Following on from this first major story DLC, at least one large-scale expansion is planned for the future.
