Dying Light 2 will finally get a New Game + mode by the end of April 2022

Techland has kept Dying Light 2 topped up with a steady drip of content since its February launch, including in-game events and unlockable cosmetics. It even put out a roadmap detailing its five-year plan for the game. Dying Light 2 Patch 3, due to be launched by the end of April 2022, will add a highly-requested feature to the game, a New Game+ mode.

New Game+ essentially lets you carry over the progress of a previous playthrough to a new game, allowing you to experience Dying Light 2 in an entirely new light. Campaign-driven single-player games often lack replayability, and a New Game+ mode helps with that. However, most of the replies to the Twitter thread are requests for cross-gen play, which seems to be nowhere on the horizon.

Dying Light 2 Patch 3 will also include several unspecified fixes for the single and multiplayer modes. The latter was quite broken during the initial launch window, but the situation seems to have gotten slightly better with subsequent updates. That being said, the game's single-player campaign still has a few rough edges that disallow players from completing side quests after a certain point in the game.
