Dying Light 2: Stay Human's new trailer shows a dangerous, dense world

It's been a long time coming, but we finally got a look at new gameplay footage from upcoming zombie game Dying Light 2 today during Techland's first Dying 2 Know stream, which also revealed the Dying Light 2: Stay Human release date. The new gameplay trailer shows off new enemies, some of the new risk/reward system behind venturing out in the night, and a parkour system that has double the number of moves from the original game.

In the original game, you could unlock a variety of new parkour moves as you leveled up, but there's even more of that to discover in Dying Light 2, Techland says. There are some 3,000 individual animations that go into the newly revamped parkour system, and we got a peek at some Titanfall-esque wallrunning in the trailer, which you can view below.

The new trailer also dips into some of the new dynamics that take place at night. As in the original, the darkness of night makes the city a much more dangerous place, but now it offers new opportunities as well. Monsters (which are emphatically not zombies, Techland is quick to emphasise) emerge from their nests to prowl the streets, which gives you the opportunity to venture into them to discover valuable loot.

Dying Light 2 is dead, but Dying Light 2: Stay Human is out this December

It's official: Dying Light 2 is cancelled. Well, okay, not really - the game is reemerging, zombie-style, after disappearing for a bit with a sort of new title. Developer Techland has confirmed that Dying Light 2: Stay Human is due to launch this year. (Never mind the bit where they accidentally leaked their own announcement a few hours early through Twitch ads. Oops!)

Dying Light 2: Stay Human officially launches on December 7, 2021 across PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series S and X, Xbox One and yes, PC. If you've missed out on the plot details so far, you'll be playing as Aiden Caldwell in a story set 20 years after the events of the original game. The devs say you'll be able to pick up the story here no problem, even if you haven't played the original game.

The Dying Light 2 release date has slipped away before, but hopefully now we've got a date we can count on. The game is still looking impressive in the new gameplay footage, which offers a broad overview of the story, setting, factions, and zombies you'll be dealing with.

The Dying Light 2 reveal event will begin soon

May 27, 2021 The Dying Light 2 reveal event is about to begin.

Dying Light 2 developer Techland stayed pretty quiet over the past year about its upcoming zombie game, but lately the Polish developer has been rumbling. More information on Dying Light 2 is on the way, and perhaps the pre-launch hype floodgates are preparing to open. Whatever the case, we'll be seeing something new about Dying Light 2 this week, in a Twitch stream scheduled to begin shortly.

Techland hasn't said exactly what it plans to show off in the livestream, which is set for 12 p.m. PT / 3 p.m. ET / 8 p.m. BST on the official Techland Twitch channel. It seems fair to expect a new peek at some gameplay footage, or potentially a new trailer. We also may get a new Dying Light 2 release date, or failing that, at least a release window.

Dying Light 2 had been slated for launch last spring, but was indefinitely delayed without much in the way of explanation beyond the studio needing more time "to fulfill our vision" for the follow-up to its popular open-world zombie parkour adventure.
