New Dying Light 2 trailer at Gamescom 2021 showcases improved parkour mechanics

Speaking of parkour, the sequel promises to use an "advanced, realistic movement system." This suggests that Dying Light 2 will make use of parkour movement even more. It might even play a key role in the game's combat system as Aiden learns how to survive in a world where everyone around him is infected. What's next for Dying Light 2? The oft-delayed Dying Light 2 is finally set to release in December.

On top of the game's combat and parkour system, Techland also took the time to showcase the several enemy types that players will encounter in the game and how you'll need to change your approach depending on who you are fighting against. Not only that, but it appears that humans are just as dangerous in Dying Light 2 as the other infected.

As the game is set in the last bastion of humanity, like-minded humans have formed their own factions in an attempt to survive. It's an interesting concept, for sure. Although the first Dying Light game had Kyle Crane contend against other humans, it wasn't to this extent. In the sequel, the lines of who's good and who's bad have become blurred as survival takes precedence above all else.

Finally, Techland also took the time to reveal more of its Techland GG community hub, where fans of the Polish developer's games can congregate and meet, at Gamescom 2021.

As for Dying Light 2: Stay Human, Techland confirmed earlier this year that the sequel is set for a December 7 release. In the meantime, you can scratch the itch by playing other horror games
