\"Dying <\/p>\n

Dying Light 2 is finally out and it seems the latest zombie parkour game from Techland is doing really well.\u00a0<\/p>\n

If Steam numbers are anything to go off of, Dying Light 2 is easily Techland\u2019s most successful game. In fact, its all-time peak is nearly four times larger than Dying Light\u2019s all-time peak. Mind you, Dying Light has been out since 2015 and Dying Light 2 has been out for essentially 24 hours. That it\u2019s already surpassed the original game with such massive numbers is quite the feat, as noted by games analyst Benji-Sales on Twitter<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

More specifically, Dying Light 2\u2019s all-time peak at the moment is 177,222 players, according to Steam Charts<\/a>. Dying Light\u2019s all-time peak is 45,876. In fact, Dying Light 2 has already surpassed last year\u2019s big horror release, Resident Evil Village, which has an all-time peak of 106,631.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Now, it\u2019s important to note that PC player counts don\u2019t necessarily translate to console player counts, but there\u2019s a good chance that if PC player counts are this high, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X\/S, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One concurrents are just as high, if not higher. If that\u2019s the case, then Techland absolutely has another hit on their hands.\u00a0<\/p>\n

That wouldn\u2019t be surprising either because Dying Light 2 is a great game \u2013 Game Informer<\/em> gave it a 9.5 out of 10<\/a>. Not to mention, Techland has already publicly discussed its commitment to this game, releasing a five-year roadmap for planned DLC<\/a>. The sequel could get another boost in player counts too when the Switch version of Dying Light 2, which was recently delayed<\/a>, is finally released.\u00a0<\/p>\n
