Rumors of Dying light 2 It seems that developer Techland, potentially the target of an upcoming acquisition, has been greatly exaggerated. According to the head of the studio community, Techland is still an independent company and has not been acquired by any other publisher at this time.
Traction with these rumors began yesterday when he hosted a popular Xbox podcast shared who had heard that Microsoft was potentially studying picking up Techalnd and making the developer part of its Xbox Game Studios stable. This then sparked a response from the aforementioned Techland community manager after the rumor mentions began to do so in their direct messages on Twitter. “A year ago there was the same rumor circulating on the internet and the situation didn’t change,” said Uncy, the studio’s community manager. “Techland is an independent studio and was not acquired by any other publisher.”
I have a lot of dm about acquiring Dying Light, so I will answer here:

News of the acquisition of Techland comes at a time when acquisition rumors have been circulating for months. A few weeks ago, a major new report was released stating that several publishers such as Xbox, PlayStation, Electronic Arts and Amazon have recently been looking to snatch several independent studios. Given how Techland is a major independent company, it makes sense for them to become one of the rumor mill companies.
For now, all we really know for sure about Techland is that we work hard Dying light 2. While we haven’t heard anything new officially from Techland in quite some time, the study has been mocking that we should start hearing more as the year progresses. Meanwhile, a new report has recently come out stating that the game will be released sooner than we think.
In reality, Dying light 2 no release window has even been given, although a release is expected in 2021. Whenever it arrives, it will arrive on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X and PC.
