Dying Light 2 (DL2) Patch Notes: Update 1.6.0
Here are the official patch notes for Dying Light 2 Update 1.6.0 that is now rolling out to all the supported platforms of the game:
Features:
New Chapter Agent — time to meet Shen Xiu, AKA The Huntress – the newest Chapter Agent and a very talented tracker. Have you ever come across various bow containers on your journey? All of those used to belong to her as she is an expert in ranged weapons. Moreover, she represents the Hunters – a mysterious faction of talented huntsmen employed to track down and eliminate the most dangerous of the Infected. The chase for her newest prey led her all the way to the City.
New Enemies — face brand new dangers in the form of the Hag (a threatening Banshee Variant) and Plaguebearers (Human Enemies infected by the Hag). But watch out – she is a very fast and nimble foe that is almost impossible to hit in close quarters and can easily catch you off guard. The Hag can even resist daylight or UV light, so you must rethink your tactics! Furthermore, her Pleaguebearers are almost indistinguishable from normal people, and only your Survivor Sense can help you detect them. Upon their death, they will release a toxic fog that can instantly turn any human enemies around them into Infected!
New Weapons — unlock powerful gear such as the Hunter’s Crossbow or Ballista Bow; an impressive new addition to your arsenal of ranged weapons. However, the melee weapons enthusiast will also have a blast with deadly weapons such as the Basher.
New Bounties — face the brand new series of bounties focused on defeating your enemies with traps, ranged weapons, or without getting hit.
Revisit Chapter 1 — the first Chapter’s content will still be available. Moreover, Harper – the previous Chapter Agent – will have a brand new weapon, blueprint, pack, and bounties to offer.
“We wanted to present players with a challenge like none they have seen before. The Hag is meant to be an extraordinary foe, powerful enough even to bend the game’s rules – making the Day in the City as dangerous and tense as the Night. The hunt is on, and you’ll have to be constantly on your toes if you don’t want to end up as the prey.” – Paweł Płaza, Techland’s Product Owner
