A plethora of high-profile rooms at Polish developer Techland has led to serious concerns about the status of Dying Light 2. Pas, Paweł Selinger, a 22-year veteran of the team, has decided to step down from his role as narrator designer to resign. In a statement, the studio wished the veteran the best, but stressed ‘he left a large chunk of himself at Dying Light 2 as he worked on the project from the start’.
The firm commented in a somewhat unprecedented move on rumors regarding the Art Director position, confirming that there was no change to this role. “The position of Art Director is not threatened and has been held by Eric Cochonneau since November 2019,” a spokesman said. “Eric has since taken care of every aspect of the upcoming production and the team under his leadership is doing their best to offer players the best game possible.”
So, what about that game? It would originally appear on the PlayStation 4 in the spring of 2020, but there is currently no release date for this. Well, Techland promises to share “exciting news” about the project in the near future. With our fingers crossed, we’ll get a meaningful update on the game in the coming months.
