Mixing in raw combat maneuvers like heavy slams, with parkour abilities like jumping off a stunned enemy to dropkick their friend off a building is a sense of glee that never tires. The combat itself is still the same as before, visceral and quick as you duck and weave between foes while lopping limbs off. It’s that same feeling you got when you acquired the grappling hook in the first game, an almost freeing sense as you start changing how you view how you move around the city. New to the game is the paraglider that helps you cut across wide swathes of the city. From swinging off bars to cutting across the street to finding a bounce pad that launches you high into the air, you’re always moving and it’s great. The parkour feels just as good, and the city feels so much more traversable than Harran, with ways to help you move across the city all over the place.

Not even close, but it’s some damn good fun. I’ll cut to the chase: Dying Light 2 Stay Human is more of what you want from Dying Light with a few extra bells and whistles. That’s how long the wait has been since the first Dying Light was released, back in 2015, and I’m sure the question on everyone’s mind is whether or not the sequel lives up to the hype. Boy, seven years sure have gone by quickly. ![]()
