Dying Light 2: Reloaded Edition News

Dying Light 2 fans miffed after a last-minute Denuvo reveal

Dying Light 2 will use the controversial Denuvo Anti-Tamper DRM system. If you didn't know that, you're not alone. The information was quietly revealed through a back-end Steam update yesterday, and while the Steam store page now clearly labels its inclusion, fans are miffed about the last-minute reveal.

"Dying Light 2 Stay Human was in development for seven years," a Techland representative tells players on the Steam forums. "Throughout that period, over fifteen hundred people invested their time and talent into making the game. To protect the efforts of the whole team from piracy we suffered when we released Dying Light 1, we've included the Denuvo system, at least for the launch period. It's a solution used widely for AAA games nowadays.

"Being gamers ourselves, we understand your concerns, and we want to ensure that it will not impact your gaming experience. We continue putting extra resources into testing the game, and at this stage, we do not see any noticeable impact on the performance. We'll be actively reviewing feedback during the game's launch. Do not hesitate to share yours with us too."

Dying Light 2 Stay Human - Release Map and Pre-Load information

Dying Light 2's post-launch roadmap confirms multiple paid story expansions

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.
