Techland has said that completing everything in Dying Light 2 could take up to 500 hours. For those only interested in the main story, Techland estimates the game to take around 20 hours. A playthrough including the main story and all of the game’s side quests is estimated at around 80 hours. In those dozens of hours, you will make choices that will shape the future of The City where the game takes place, all the while battling both humans and the undead and traversing the game’s open-world with its in-depth parkour mechanics. While designed as an immersive single-player experience, the game also supports four-player co-op.
