Apple is increasingly focusing on building its own devices and expanding its ecosystem by taking steps towards a more native experience for users and relying less on third-party accessories.

Dying Light 2 Will Still Be Supported, Albeit Without Story DLCs

The first Dying Light 2 DLC, Bloody Ties, launched in October 2022. Originally, Techland had promised two story DLCs included with the Ultimate Edition, and the second DLC was supposed to be far larger than Bloody Ties. It turns out it became so large that it's now its own standalone game called The Beast. The upside is that the aforementioned owners of Dying Light 2 Ultimate Edition will get it for free once it is released. What about the future of Dying Light 2, though?
