Dying Light 2: Is Crossplay Available?
One of this year’s most eagerly awaited games, Dying Light 2: Stay Human, is finally here! It’s a must-have for lovers of RPGs and open-world games alike. Fans may look forward to a four-player co-op, a fresh and bigger terrain, and an altogether new plot and protagonist. So are we able to play the game with our friends via crossplay?
The inclusion of cross-play will be essential in every game released in 2022. Basically, it’s how gamers from various platforms interact. A game that does not support crossplay forces users to only engage with others who are using the same platform as them, such as PC, Xbox, or PlayStation. There will be no co-op crossplay mode in Dying Light 2 as of writing, however, you can learn more about how it works below.
Yes to Co-Op Mode, but No Crossplay Yet
With no crossplay in Dying Light 2, users will be limited to playing only with others on their own platform. Even next-generation consoles are affected by this. 🙁 Those that play on PlayStation 5 are unable to play with those on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, or PC.
- While it’s a bummer for co-op enthusiasts, the developers will be having an update to the next generation. There is a free upgrade to Dying Light 2 available for those who buy a PS5 and update their current PS4 model.

- Dying Light 2’s co-op mode allows up to four players to work together to battle the undead. You take command of Aiden Caldwell, and those participating in local cooperative play have access to all available missions. Even if the co-op session concludes and the participants return to solo play, the items you’ve collected while working together are retained. This also applies to player advancements! 😄

Since March 2021, I've worn two hats at Spiel Times: a writer and a Managing Editor. In my writing role, I've earned recognition from Wikipedia and Nev Schulman (Catfish TV Show host) for my insightful analysis and engaging narrative style. I'm passionate about all things gaming, with a keen eye for detail and a knack for uncovering hidden secrets within games. My gaming journey began at a young age, captivated by titles like Resident Evil and Tomb Raider. Today, I enjoy exploring open-world RPGs and MMORPGs, consumed by their lore and crafting theories about their narratives. I'm also drawn to the suspenseful atmosphere of horror games and the intricate narratives of crime-themed titles, bringing a unique perspective to my writing. Beyond gaming, I have a fascination with anything unexplained and chilling, a passion that often spills over into my exploration of horror games. When I'm not engrossed in a virtual world, you can find me curled up and spending time with my adorable doggy sidekick, Teemo. As Managing Editor, I'm committed to fostering a collaborative and supportive environment for our writing team. I communicate openly with my team members, addressing any content-related issues and providing guidance to help them excel.
