Dying Light 2 developer Techland has revealed that the game’s map places a major emphasis on verticality, and as such affords players more opportunity to explore than the original game.
Speaking during a Q&A with WCCFTech, the team was asked about the previous claims that Dying Light 2’s map is roughly four times the size of its predecessor. In response, Łukasz Burdka, senior technology p[rogrammer, commented:
What actually limits the map’s size is the time needed to fill the city with unique gameplay challenges, memorable stories, and interesting exploration possibilities. There was no downsizing due to technical reasons. The estimate that the map in Dying Light 2 is four times bigger than that of the original game is the most precise estimate that we can provide.
The map of Dying Light 2 is much more vertical and gives many more exploration opportunities, so the city feels even bigger than it is.
