Edit: The gameplay video has been added to this post. You can see it above.
A week or two ago, Techland emailed us and promised to debut gameplay footage from Dying Light 2 on this very date. Well, they’re about to make good on that promise, by offering fans of the series a look at gameplay that was only shown behind closed doors at gamescom. This hasn’t happened yet, but is scheduled to occur at 2pm EST today.
You can watch the aforementioned video stream live on Twitch, Facebook or Steam. It will be uploaded to YouTube afterwards, and we will embed it into this article when we can.
Here’s what they say about the footage:
Techland is proud to reveal its dramatic, previously unreleased 26-minute Dying Light 2 gameplay video that brings back the exceptional ability and brutal combat gameplay, viciously evolving infected, and the next iteration of the day/night cycle.
Presented behind closed doors at E3 and Gamescom 2019, the video further showcases how player’s choices have far reaching consequences on both the narrative and the world around them that results in a playable sandbox that is 4x larger than the original Dying Light game.
Welcome to The City, a modern world plunged into a Dark Age – the last bastion of humanity, where factions fight for power, and regular people fight just to survive. Our protagonist, Aiden Caldwell, is forced to make difficult decisions under pressure, that will shape both the narrative and the world around you.
