Dying Light 2: Reloaded Edition News

There's a new roadmap available for Techland's plans for Dying Light 2, and it includes multiple 'story DLCs,' at least one of which is planned for later this year. Additionally, the developer says it plans to add challenges and limited time events "for at least five years" after the Dying Light 2 release date, which is right around the corner.

The rough roadmap published today includes ballpark estimates for when we can expect post-launch Dying Light 2 content to arrive. In February, shortly after the game launches, we'll see "factions-inspired free DLCs," which appear to be new costumes for players who want some extra drip.

In March, an initial set of challenges will arrive, which likely will include creative enemy disposal methods and sick parkour trick chains. In April, something called "a series of events" is slated to begin, and that's going to involve special "mutated infected" - the shambling, formerly human monsters walking the streets are likely to get quite a bit more dangerous when that starts up. A second set of challenges is due in early May.

Dying Light 2 was announced nearly four years ago, so what's another half-decade of development, right? Ahead of the Dying Light 2 release date in February, the devs have already started to tease their post-launch plans, including "at least five years" of support with major new content throughout.

"We guarantee to expand the world of Dying Light 2: Stay Human for at least five years post launch with new stories, locations, in-game events, and all the fun stuff you love," the devs say in a tweet. The accompanying image also mentions a "world expansion" and "in-game items", though there's not yet any indication of how much of that stuff will be free or paid.

While it might seem a bit premature to announce all that support before the game's even out, the original Dying Light has set a pretty extreme precedent for post-launch support. It's still getting updates and new in-game events, including multiple major DLC expansions. The Following in particular is well-loved among the game's community.
