Dying Light 2 Next-Gen Patch Arrives on PS5

Xbox Next-Gen Patch Coming Soon

A Dying Light next-gen patch has arrived on PS5, bringing beautiful new graphical options to the 2015 game. Xbox gamers, however, will have to wait a while to get this update.

Late last year, Techland revealed that it was working on a Dying Light next-gen patch — a particularly impressive move considering that the game came out all the way back in 2016. Although the company is certainly focused on its planned roadmap for Dying Light 2 content, it hasn’t forgotten about its predecessor — and now, PS5 players can enjoy some cool new graphics options.

What’s New in the Dying Light Next-Gen Patch on PS5?
