Soon the time will come and Dying Light 2 will fill the Steamstore with an action rich zombie shooter, here is a short summary of what the shooter offers you and what to look out for.
Release
On February 4, we can finally expect the shooter after two postponements, because the first major streamers have already had the honor of taking a little peek at Dying Light 2.
Let’s first look at the system requirements, because this time it’s unfortunately due to the graphics card market that not everyone can enjoy the game in Full HD. For example, ray tracing and high settings in Full-HD require a 3080 (10GB) for 60FPS, which is just 1.1% of all Steam users according to the Steam hardware survey. But even without ray tracing and high settings you will be able to play it. Here is a brief list of all the information that has been made public so far on the system requirement:
Minimum (Ray Tracing off, 1080p 30fps)
CPU: Intel Core i3-9100 or AMD Ryzen 3 2300X
RAM: 8 GB
GPU: Nvidia GeForce GTX 1050 Ti/AMD Radeon RX 560 4 GB
OS: Windows 7
Hard disk space: 60 GB HDD
Recommended (Ray Tracing off, 1080p 60fps)
CPU: Intel Core i5-8600K or AMD Ryzen 5 3600X
RAM: 16 GB
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 6 GB or AMD Radeon RX Vega 56 8 GB
OS: Windows 10
Hard disk space: 60 GB SSD
Ray Tracing On Minimum (1080p 30fps)
CPU: Intel Core i5-8600K or AMD Ryzen 5 3600X
RAM: 16 GB
GPU: Nvidia GeForce RTX 2070 8 GB
OS: Windows 10
Hard disk space: 60 GB SSD
Ray Tracing On Recommended (1080p 60fps)
CPU: Intel Core i5-8600K or AMD Ryzen 7 3700X
RAM: 16 GB
GPU: Nvidia GeForce RTX 3080 10 GB
OS: Windows 10
Hard disk space: 60 GB SSD
It should also be mentioned that Dying Light will not only be released for PC, Xbox and PS4/PS5, but also for Nintendo Switch. However, it remains to be seen what will be used for the Nintendo Switch, i.e. cloud gaming or on the internal storage.

Gameplay
As for the gameplay and visuals, Techland has not held back here, both the graphics which are excellent, as well as the gameplay which with all the quests and achievements gives the player almost 500 hours of play, just brilliant. I have put a few screenshots in here for you.
Conclusion
My conclusion to all this is that with Dying Light 2 Stay Human we finally get a top zombie parkour title that will hopefully stay in our Steamstore for a long time and we can put a lot of joy and playtime in it because especially parkour games with open-world storyline we got very little to no-one. At the moment there is not much to see of the game except the beta, but if and how far the finished game will stick to the beta and marketing screenshots remains to be seen. It should be noted that depending on the version, the game costs 60 – 100 euros, which is not exactly low.
