![]() While some are still criticizing the game for its length within a sea of giant, open-world games, players only have to wait until February 4 to see if it justifies its size or not. This easily makes Dying Light 2 an ambitious game, but not in the way that some might initially have thought. It will take players 20 hours to complete the main story, 80 hours to finish both the main story and side quests, and 500 hours to 100 everything. The team had previously tried to reign in that claim multiple times, but the embedded tweet finally gave an explanation for each approximation in one, easy-to-read graphic. A new infographic was provided breaking down the 500 hours that was stated beforehand. For example, former member of the press and current developer at Sony Santa Monica Alanah Pearce stated that Techland told her an average playthrough would take around 20 t0 30 hours. Techland didn’t quite make this clear in its initial round of tweets, but some did point out that 500 hours wasn’t going to be an average playthrough (while other developers poked fun at it).

However, full completionists will have to spend about 500 hours in the game to truly see everything. RELATED: 15-Minute Dying Light 2 Gameplay Trailer Showcases Stronger, Late-Game Abilities Players who want to do every campaign and story mission will be looking at about 80 hours of content, a 20 to 30-hour increase over the first title. The studio estimates that those who want to mainline the title will take around 20 hours to hit the end credits, which is just a few hours longer than the first game. Techland recently put out a simple tweet with some numbers and, more importantly, explanations. Dying Light 2: Stay Human is designed for players with different gameplay styles and preferences to explore the world how they see fit. ![]() We wanted to clarify our recent communication about the amount of hours required to complete the game. Relax, Dying Light 2: Stay Human Won’t Require 500 Hours To Finish. However, that was still vague, causing the team to fully break down hour estimates for each type of player. The team tried to elaborate on that outrageous hour count by saying that it would take players around 500 hours to see everything in the game. The 500-hour claim took many by surprise and drew plenty of criticism. Players will need to spend about 500 hours to 'fully complete' Dying Light 2, developer Techland has confirmed, while also acknowledging that this is the projected run time for a 100. The good news is that those who just want to finish Dying Light 2's story and side quests will need a still-long but less life-stealing 70-80 hours.Techland recently stirred up the pot when it randomly tweeted the supposed completion time for Dying Light 2 Stay Human. Techland did emphasize the vital caveat in a follow-up tweet: 500 hours is how long it will take to 100% complete the game, "finishing all the quests, endings, and exploring every part of the world." To fully complete Dying Light 2 Stay Human, you'll need at least 500 hours-almost as long as it would take to walk from Warsaw to Madrid! #DyingLight2 #stayhuman /Sk3KFpRJoA ![]() That's the equivalent of over 20 days of continuous play, or, as the company puts it, almost as long as it would take to walk from Warsaw to Madrid (around 534 hours). The first game also required a fairly hefty investment of players' time, around 55 hours, but according to developer Techland's recent tweet, fully completing everything in Dying Light 2 will take 500 hours. The follow-up to 2015's zombies-meets-parkour title is one of the most hotly anticipated titles this year. That's especially true with the upcoming Dying Light 2: Stay Human, which developers say will take a ridiculously long 500 hours to complete everything it has to offer. A hot potato: Open world games aren't the best genre for those who don't have much time to play games. ![]()
