Techland gives out Hakon Bundle for free as a gift for #DyingLight2 players
Techland's newest update and an in-game event for Dying Light 2 Stay Human (@DyingLightGame) is now available on all platforms. The update and event are released today, December 19, at 3 am PT / 6 am ET / 11 am GMT, and ends on Friday, Jan. 5, 2024, at 3 am PT / 6 am ET / 11 am GMT.
Get ready for Winter Tales as Villedor becomes covered in winter's frost. Baka is back with new bounties and rewards for an upcoming event. Remember to write a letter to Santa because he is probably near the city, and gifts are falling from the sky. However, be wary, as they might be protected by Naughty Infected, who are invading the city again.
As a special gift from Techland, starting today, players will be able to claim the Hakon Bundle for free.
This year, snow has arrived in Villedor, so remember to visit your favorite spots in the City and prepare your camera for festive snaps.
Be sure to check out the Bazaar, where survivors have started decorating the Christmas Tree. They may need some help with that.
Event will be available to you till 5th January
New Enemy Variants
With the Update, a new wave of enemy variants will show up on the streets of the City.
Watch out for biters, carrying the deadly gas tanks on their backs. You can encounter three new variants:
- Don't get too close to the Toxic one - he will release a deadly cloud around himself
- Stop your enemies where you want them - Freezing biter will prevent them from moving
- Watch incinerating biter throw fire puddles around him - but not from too close, or you will be engulfed in the fireball he turns into!
- Virals also turn more vicious - some of them will spit in your direction to keep you away. You may also encounter them carrying gas tank.
- Don't get surprised by the new Goon variant - their scream will alert banshees, waiting in the dark corners to attack you.
New Weapons - Polearms
Diversify your battlefield tactics with the arrival of Polearms! This new weapon type offers extended reach, allowing for strategic engagements and versatile playstyles. Pick them up from the cold dead hands of enemies that carried them before, or visit weapon vendors.
Don't forget to visit Shen Xiu (Chapter 2 Agent) and Pilgrim Outpost! And of course, the new weapon type comes with its unique finisher.
Nocturnal Weapons
We are introducing a new type of weapon specifically designed for better effectiveness during night fights. Nocturnal Weapons come only in higher rarities - from unique to exotics, so just because of that they’re already quite formidable. But what sets these weapons apart are their special affixes (triggered during the night) and cool, fluorescent appearances. Some of these weapons are designed to focus on handling specific types of infected, so choose wisely which one you will bring into the night. However, keep in mind that, as powerful as they are, they also drain your immunity faster, so using them is a classic risk-and-reward mechanic. Participate in Night Encounters, and fight Volatiles, Backpack Biters, and several others to obtain them. Make sure to visit Harper and Pilgrim Outpost. Explore the night and discover your first Nocturnal Weapon.
New Finishers
Your enthusiasm for new features doesn't go unnoticed; we've heard you clearly.
Get ready for a fistfight and check 2 new hands finishers, waiting to be mastered in the midst of battle.
In addition, you can now get a chance to perform a finisher after successfully performing Perfect Dodge, Perfect Parry, X-Ray attack, and even when you release yourself from the Biter grab.
Watch the official Winter Tales trailer below and visit the Pilgrim Outpost for more information.
