First off,Dying Light 2revealed brand new gameplayalong with a December 7 release date. The showcase looked similar to what fans got out of the firstDying Lightgame, though it was a worthwhile update. There are still a lot of questions about the game, but just knowingDying Light 2’s release date should be enough to hold over some fans of the franchise.

However, nothing else has been revealed about the system specs, so it’s still a huge question mark.
