While it's only been out a couple of days, the first Dying Light 2 mods have already begun to roll out - including the return of a fan-favourite Dying Light mod that ups the challenge considerably. The Dying Light 2 Extreme Nights mod is out now in version 2.0, and it makes the nights twice as long and many times more difficult. They were bad enough already.
Back in 2016, modder UD24 added a new mod called Extreme Nights to Dying Light, which they introduced with the phrase, "'sup, wanna die?" For those not in the know, nighttime in Dying Light is basically a survival situation where the zombies become more numerous and more powerful. Extreme Nights made things even more, well, extreme by increasing the length of the night and both the number and toughness of the zombies.
"You will either succeed in stealth (maybe hiding in a room with the door closed), or you will be spotted and things will start to snowball very very VERY fast," UD24 explained. Now, the mod is back for Dying Light 2, and it sounds even more impossible.

A hotfix is out for brand new co-op game Dying Light 2, which launched less than 24 hours ago. The small patch is aimed at addressing issues players have run into when playing co-op - specifically, unreliable connections and the inability to join other players' games. The team says it's also working on fixing the Techland website, where players who pre-ordered Dying Light 2 have to go to redeem their in-game rewards.
"Two things on the top of our list: disconnects in co-op mode and problems with redeeming awards, codes, and other in-game content, including Twitch Drops from TechlandGG," a Techland community manager posted on the Steam forums earlier today, February 4. "Our team is on it. We will update you on the progress."
About five hours later, a hotfix was ready to download. Techland says it should improve the stability of co-op mode connections, but advises players to shut down and re-launch Steam once the patch is downloaded, "just in case". The patch itself is around 260MB, so you won't have long to wait once it appears in the queue.
