Gameplay
Dying Light 2 is described as an open-world first-person action role-playing game based in a world that has been savaged by a zombie apocalypse, and is set 20 years after the first game, Dying Light.
Aiden Caldwell is the new protagonist. He has high parkour skills and can do elaborate moves like ledge jumps and wall running with leaps. It has been confirmed that over 3000 parkour animations have been inserted into Dying Light 2, providing an authentic feel for the player. Similar to Battlefield, the area is entirely destroyable, meaning that parts of the map can be destroyed through the actions of the player.
The game is set in The City, a seismic urban world based in the centre of Europe that gamers have full access to, and is four times larger than in Dying Light, according to GameSpot.
What is the secret to its size? You may be asking why it is so large. The City is spread across seven different areas where Aiden will have to explore, make choices, build tools, and form factions. Each judgment can have its own consequences that can change the course of The City.
