Dying Light 2 Stay Human gets a meaty gameplay trailer ahead of release

Still among the living.

As Dying Light 2 Stay Human’s  launch draws near, Techland is finally answering some of the community’s most-asked-about questions.

During a Thursday presentation, the studio took some time to show off co-op gameplay. Up to four players can tear through the zombie apocalypse together as, like the original Dying Light, the entire campaign is available in co-op. The twist this time is that whenever narrative choices appear, everyone in a party can vote on what story option to choose. Strangely, whoever is hosting a game session decides what to go with regardless. 

You can see a snippet of co-op gameplay below; just jump to the 4:12 mark if playing the video doesn’t take you there automatically.

In addition to the  extra gameplay systems  coming in Dying Light 2 Stay Human, you’ll also keep any progress made in someone else’s sessions. Yes, that includes items and experience points!

Finally, Techland chose to cap off the show with an official launch trailer, so check it out for yourself below.

It certainly looks like Dying Light 2 Stay Human will attempt to deliver a solid narrative. Thankfully you don’t need to have gone through the first game to understand what’s happening in this one — it won’t take 500 hours either.

Dying Light 2 Stay Human comes out Feb. 4 for PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch, and PC.
