Dying Light 2: Development "moving forward" and studio "was not bought by another publisher" says Techland – News

Several rumors since yesterday indicated working conditions "chaotic"in the offices of Techland, which is behind the next installment of Dying Light. Two representatives from the studio decided to speak in order to deny certain claims.

Originally scheduled for spring 2020, Dying Light 2 is postponed again and is finally expected on an unknown date on PC and consoles. The Polish website yesterday PolskiGameDev.pl evoked during an investigation the production of Dying Light 2. Reprinted and translated on Twitter (a post which is no longer available) as well as on Wccftech, the article was then the subject of numerous relays, intensifying the corridor noises.

Quoting employees of Techland and "anonymous sources", it indicated among other things a chaotic development, quarrels and disagreements between the narrative designer Chris Avellone (Fallout) and Adrian" Pyza "Ciszewski, creative director. Another rumor was that the studio could be the next acquisition of Microsoft .

In the columns of Wccftech, a representative split from a communicated, in response to the article in question:

At Techland, we work as a team and we grow as a team. We are proud that many of our employees have chosen to join us for several years now.

The article mentioned contains various opinions, both from our employees and from anonymous sources. Every opinion matters to us, so we carefully analyze all the issues raised.
With regard to Dying Light 2, development is progressing and corresponds to our internal calendar, which we set at the beginning of the year.

On Twitter, Ola Sondej, press officer at Techland, also denied rumors of the takeover, denouncing in this same way an approximate translation of the original article. If it does not respond to all of the criticisms made on the game team, it confirms that the development of Dying Light 2 continues.

In case you were wondering, Techland was not bought by another publisher. We are still an independent studio, and we will release Dying Light 2 on PC, Xbox One and PlayStation 4.

In this regard, the translation of the Techland article circulating is completely inaccurate.

While I have your attention, the development of Dying Light 2 is progressing, the game is in good shape (and in good hands), so don't worry. He is coming.
