Dying Light 2 Update Fixes The Game’s Annoying Death-Loop Bug

A new patch for Dying Light 2 has gone live on PC, and between a few tweaks to the zombie apocalypse sandbox, one of the game’s more annoying bugs has been fixed. As PC players discovered, loading a fresh save of Dying Light 2 occasionally locked them into a death-loop–not that one–where they’d constantly die like an ill-prepared Tom Cruise sci-fi movie character.

Dying during a quest within a restricted area would result in them being respawned in a different area, and facing a time limit that would not allow them to get back to the previous mission area on time. That issue has been fixed, alongside a few others.
