It’s also not just filled with enemies that want to kill the player. Villedor is not just a giant sandbox to run around in without a care in the world. I had to think and plan exactly how I would get from point A to point B, which I found refreshing. I couldn’t just forge forward and let the pathing algorithm take me across buildings.
What I appreciated the most is while the parkour is fluid, it still required thought and planning. Of course, Dying Light 2 brings back the parkour that allows you to traverse this huge city. This was a random building I found, and there is a myriad of them throughout Villedor. There were many times where I would duck into a random building to escape the gnashing maws of the undead, only to climb a flight of stairs to literally get the drop on them. It felt like every block of the city had something new and interesting to offer. Of course, there were zombies and bandits, too, but a couple of bonks from my weapon solved that issue. This decision led me to a courtyard that was actually a military outpost filled with armor and weaponry. When trying to get to the story objective, I thought cutting through a courtyard would be a solid shortcut. Villedor is a huge city that is densely packed with buildings and points of interest.
The area of the City (many residents just call it that) I was able to explore was certainly expansive, not only in area size but also in terms of verticality, as well as fleshed-out buildings. Villedor is possibly the last bastion of humanity left on Earth, and it is quite huge. It has been 20 years since the first game, and it’s 15 years after the zombie apocalypse took over the world. I got a chance to sit down with Dying Light 2during a virtual preview event and got my first glimpse at Villedor, the city where the game takes place. Dying Light 2: Stay Human answers this call by giving players a large city to play in, puzzle-like exploration, and most importantly - actual humanity amid all the dead. These parts can be the reason why a good zombiekilling game rises up to be a great zombie-killing game. This leaves space to look at what surrounds the combat, the chunks of the game that separate one cadaver killing spree from another. Dying Light 2 Stay Human - Official Gameplay Trailer
