Dying Light 2 krijgt nieuwe update

Ontwikkelaar Techland blijft Dying Light 2 ondersteunen met updates, zelfs jaren na de release. Dat is geen verrassing overigens, want het eerste deel kreeg ook voor een lange tijd nog verdere updates. Versie 1.062 van de game is nu verkrijgbaar en deze voert een hoop veranderingen door.
