Techland says it's "seriously thinking" about NG+.

FULL STORY ======================================================================

Dying Light 2 made the headlines after its developer, Techland, claimed it would take more than 500 hours to complete everything in its open-world
zombie survival game. Thats not enough for the games fans calling for a New Game Plus mode. Good news for them, Techland is on board.

If youve been carving your way through Dying Light 2 , making friends with
the citys factions , upgrading your gear, getting to grips with the parkour shortcuts threaded through the metropolis of Villedor, you may already be thinking about how much better youd do things if you had a fresh run at the campaign. A New Game Plus mode would reset Villedor back to the state you found it at the beginning of the story but let you keep all your souped-up powers and gear.

Since it launched in February, Techland has been fixing Dying Light 2 bugs, and a big patch is due out later this week on PC and console. On top of that, in answer to a fans question, the developer also confirms it is seriously thinking about a New Game Plus mode. NG+ is an option we're seriously
thinking about, but it's too early to promise anything yet. March 4, 2022 See more

Techland says its too early to promise anything yet, but the feature is on
the cards.

This week, the patch Techland is releasing fixes Dying Light 2s notorious death loop bug. Some players have found themselves caught in an endless cycle of death where as soon as they load into a save they die with no way out. If you encounter the bug and havent backed up your save, and lets face it, how often are we in the habit of doing that? It can mean having to go back to a save made hours before, losing all the progress youve made.

Techland is also making fixes and improvements to Dying Light 2s ragdoll animations, user interface, and more. Hopefully, it will also solve the bugs that stopped Vic from playing , right when she was enjoying the game most.

Techland says it plans to continue supporting Dying Light 2 with new DLC and expansions for another five years - which is no idle boast when you look at the many releases for the original Dying Light. But, while new places to explore are always welcome, theres a unique thrill that comes from running through a game again leveled up like a superhero.

And, considering Dying Light 2 takes 500 hours to complete , a New Game Plus mode would give Techland a little breathing space to work on those other DLC. Best new games
