Dying Light 2 delayed
- Thread starter DMVfan123
- Start date
Given that this never got a release date more specific than Spring 2020, not a huge surprise. We don't even know what platforms the PC version will be available on.
I mean it never had a date so it's not really surprising and it's fine. I'll be around when it releases.
This year is still stacked. These delays are good, spreading things out across the year is important instead of having 11 super high tier games coming out within 3 months of each other.
I know. I would've been bought It anytime it was on sale to play it but nope until there's a patch for it.
I was looking the other day and saw it said spring with nothing more specific and assumed this would happen.. Seems like it would suit next gen.

I mean it was a corpse even in the hands of yager. It's just been worse and worse, the more i've looked into it.
I haven't seen much new from the game for a long while and had been surprised they were still shooting for Spring until now. Hopefully whatever is going on with the project smooths out, as this delay sounds fairly significant with no new date and that we'll be updated in the coming months on the situation.
Even in the face of ridiculous competition, I think this game could be in the conversation for the GotY. The caveat to that is their statement doesn't lead me to believe a 2020 release is certain anymore.
I'm always happy to hear about delays tbh, I just think we get better games for it.
I need to see a video of dying light 2's raytracing. The teaser screenshots have looked significantly improved with it on, it might be the best showcase so far but it's still just still images.

Unironically calling yourself a "consumer". Assuming crunch means the game won't still come out broken. This post is so clown shoes I wanna cry a little.
Also, to answer your question, the alternative is delay the game to a reasonable date so that the devs dont have to work more than at most 50 hours a week. The downside to this is that some rich dickheads in suits are going to get slightly less of an initial return on their investments so instead, just grind those devs into dust. Besides, there's plenty of new employees we can crunch waiting to replace them and they will absolutely never go away. This is a completely sustainable industry!
wow...what a shame, I can't believe nobody got a major game out for January/February, they would've destroyed in sales. Last year we had DMC and RE2 and they did phenomenal.
Nothing too great, but it was super early last I saw it, and not the same game I had even saw with Yagers.
Tho Dambuster has a lot more experience imo with something like this so I do have faith they can pull something off. It's just I wish it was used in a different place.
Like this sequel was a waste of time in my eyes.
Now that Cyberpunk, Avengers, Dying Light all moved to the 2nd half of the year, then The Last of Us 2 is going to be an absolute sales monster in May with them all gone from its immediate launch window.
Dying Light was actually planned for Xbox 360 as well. They canceled the Xbox 360 version at the very end in order to focus on next generation hardware. Could that be going on here as well?
I know this is a personal bias, but I love Spring releases as I have more time to play them. When everything gets pushed to the late summer/fall, not only do I have less time to play them because of life responsibilities but also everything is stacked on top of each. Less time to play + too many games to play = sad me.
Spaced out released are the best

Im not surprised, they can't even get the most basic Xbox One X compatibility for DL1 into the game, despite still updating it with small DLC that nobody wants or asked for. A shame.
at least they never gave a date so I didn't really have an expectation of this having a concrete release date anyways.
We went from an extremely packed q1 to almost an empty one . Good for dreams haha much less competition
