The "Good Night, Good Luck" update for Dying Light 2 Stay Human is now available. This update brings "major" changes to the game's parkour system along with an overhaul to the nighttime gameplay experience. That is to say, nights are now darker and far more dangerous.
The nights have now been made darker and now have a "heavier, almost horror-like feel" to them. Visibility is now significantly reduced, meaning there is more of a reliance on flashlight use. More infected now show up in more locations such as Volatiles on rooftops as one example.
Today's free update also kicks off the start of the Summer of Horrors. This is a series of "events, crossovers, and updates spanning the entire season." It begins today with Bloody Nights, an in-game event that offers various rewards up through Thursday, July 13.
Sometimes the only way to survive is to run. Not only the chase sequences are now more immersive, but there are also further improvements to the parkour system. Other additions include animations, increased control in the air, and maintaining momentum.
While parkour is the highlight of Dying Light 2 Stay Human, some experienced players wanted it to be yet more challenging. Techland responded to this feedback by introducing a new parkour style, specifically designed to cater to these wishes. Now, players can select in the Settings menu whether they’d like to exercise more control over their movement, for a grounded and intense journey, or go with the assisted gameplay.
