‘Dying Light 2’ Hits 5 Million Units Sold, While Original Game Earns 20 Million Lifetime Sales [Trailer]
With Techland planning to release a patch of “highly requested features” for Dying Light 2 later this week, the developer decided to give an update on just where sales figures are at nearly three months after release. Not only that, but the original Dying Light has hit a significant milestone of its own.
Along with the new trailer touting Dying Light 2‘s accolades so far, Techland has announced that the game has now reached over 5 million units in sales since launch, “with the number climbing significantly in the weeks since”. As for the original Dying Light, it now stands at an astonishing 20 million lifetime sales across PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series and Nintendo Switch.
According to Techland CEO Paweł Marchewka, the franchise’s success “is a great example of the unforgettable experiences we create for our players.” And really, this is all after Dying Light 2 was delayed several times throughout its development. Though no doubt part of the first game’s success was the team’s commitment to postlaunch content, which will continue with the sequel.
Currently, Dying Light 2 is out on PC via Steam, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One and Xbox Series, with the Nintendo Switch version coming later this year.

Come Face to Face With the Zombie Menace in the Story Trailer for ‘Zombie Army VR’ [Watch]
While there’s no definitive release date just yet, Rebellion is teasing fans with a new story trailer for the upcoming Zombie Army VR, which is expected to arrive later this year. The new trailer gives fans and prospective players a glimpse at the Zombie Army VR story campaign, which as you might have guessed, involves occult magic, waves of zombies, and plenty of headshots.
The game’s campaign takes place alongside the events of the Zombie Army series, and sees you take to the field as one of the Deadhunters, an elite squad that is hunting down zombie war criminals. You must fight your way through undead hordes near the bombed-out city of Nuremberg to help Captain Hermann Wolff, the Deadhunter’s legendary leader, find his scattered family and fight to free Europe from the zombie apocalypse.
As you navigate the full-length story campaign either alone or with an ally, you’ll have access to an arsenal of authentic World War II weaponry, including sniper rifles, submachine guns, pistols and more. As one would expect, VR brings a new level of immersion to the action of the Zombie Army series, which will require you to “get to grips” with using your hands to aim your rifle, dual-wield your side arm with a submachine gun, master reloading drills, and tossing grenades.
Zombie Army VR is currently in development for the PlayStation VR2, Meta Quest 2, 3, Pro, Oculus Rift and PC headsets via Steam.
