Here's our no spoiler 2022 review of Dying Light 2 on PC, which released on the 4th of February.

If you didn’t play the first game, the original took place in the City of Harran where there were no survivors. However, the Global Relief Effort developed a vaccine for the Harran Virus to end the pandemic. Unfortunately, despite promises to cease all research, the GRE continued on in secret and a mutated variant quickly spread. While the vaccine was ineffective, UV lights appear to suppress the effects.

Over 20 years later, you play as a Pilgrim named Aiden Caldwell who travels between various settlements in this zombie infested post-apocalyptic world in search of his long-lost sister.

During the opening moments of the game, Aiden is following a lead on his sister before being attacked by a Zombie and consequently becoming infected. He’s brought to the nearby city of Villedor where he almost turns and the citizens attempt to hang him before being saved by your new companion Hakon.

Thus starts the main story as you provide the errand boy for the many different factions and citizens living in the politically-tense city of Villedor; hoping to find enough information to be reunited with your sister.

Dying Light 2 is not the game I was hoping for when I first saw it announced. While it has some story issues, I think it’s a game that most people will enjoy. If you’re a fan of Dying Light, RPGs and Co-Op games, this is a must-have. If you don’t fall into those categories, my advice is to watch some gameplay of the game first and assess what other titles you’re interested in before pulling the trigger on this one.
