With Dying Light 2 just weeks away now, developer Techland has revealed those purchasing the PlayStation 4 or Xbox One versions of the game will be entitled to free PS5 and Xbox Series X/S upgrades respectively, should they require them at a later date.
Techland is yet to detail the precise enhancements PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S owners can expect when Dying Light 2 launches early next month, but it has now referenced them in more general terms in two new “Modes Presentation” trailers, outlining the three different visual modes selectable on new-gen platforms.
The videos, one for PlayStation 5 and the other for Xbox Series X, each feature a slightly different cut of Dying Light 2 gameplay footage but both highlight a Quality Mode that features raytracing, a Resolution Mode promising a resolution boost to 4K, and a Performance Mode, pushing the frame rate to 60fps and beyond.
Alongside all the above, Techland has also spoken a little about cross-play. Sadly, it says Dying Light 2’s co-op mode won’t support cross-platform and cross-generation play on consoles “at launch”, but cross-play will be available on PC, with Steam and Epic Games Store players able to join forces in their zombie-smashing adventures.
