Dying Light 2: Stay Human is set to turn the page on a new seasonal chapter when it launches patch 1.5, and the team at developer Techland have revealed more about this episode.
Titled A Huntress and a Hag, the latest seasonal update to the Dying Light franchise is set to bring a different set of narrative challenges and all new faces to fans of this franchise. The second chapter in this series introduces Shen Xiu, a mysterious Chapter Agent and expert tracker who has a very special task for the Nightrunners of Villedor. Like Chapter 1 before it. While little is known about this huntress, players will have an opportunity to follow this extremely proficient tracker and archery expert into battle.
While the Nightrunners will have plenty to do in this update, there’s more than an extended story on offer. New weapons, missions, bounties, and emeries are all coming, as well as extra rewards. For more on the upcoming state of the game, you’ll be able to check out the newest episode of Techland’s “At the Fish Eye” series. The series of developer blogs puts Senior Brand Manager Anna Kubica and Karol Langier. Game Designer, in front of the camera. You can check it out above and find out more about the philosophy underlying the episodic updates, that feel a little like the concepts that drove the Guild Wars 2 team to create the Living World episodes.
While we don’t have an exact date on the extra additions, and this new agent, we do know it will be deployed within the next couple of weeks, so best to keep an eye out on the official website.
