We were hoping that the delays of major PlayStation 4 games would be left behind in the previous week, but unfortunately, they keep on coming. Dying Light 2 is the next casualty, pushed from its original Spring 2020 launch window to an unspecified date. Could developer Techland now be lining up a PlayStation 5 version day and date with its current-gen counterpart? With confirmation of the port already in the works, it has now definitely become a possibility.
In a letter penned to the community, Techland CEO Pawel Marchewka said: "We were initially aiming for a Spring 2020 release with Dying Light 2, but unfortunately we need more development time to fulfil our vision. We will have more details to share in the coming months, and will get back to you as soon as we have more information."
We have contacted Techland for comment and will update the article should further details be shared. Are you feeling let down by one more PS4 game delay? Drown your sorrows in the comments below.

At this rate, are there any games planned for the first half of 2020?!
A couple of average ones, because it looks like everything is being ported to PS5
Not that big of a surprise. They never really locked in a release date and gameplay hasnt been shown in a while
Okay guys! This is it! The time for backlog ps4 2020. Before the release of next gen! Let's goo
I just wish the studios would be honest that they are holding their games back for release with the next-gen systems.
2020, the year of delays.
This is one of my most eagerly awaited games so although it's disappointing it's another game to be hit with a delay im happy for them to keep working on it so it's perfect when released.
Well hell, how about this, just freaking completely delay every game until Dec that way they can be polished as can be and everyone can just buy a PS5 or Series X version?
No, I can at least play my backlog before ps5 arrive. Also all the delayed ps4 games should have 4k & 60 fps patch ready for ps5 launch
All we need now is for The Last of Us 2 to be delayed (again) and our collective misery will be complete 🙄 at least Doom Eternal is still coming out in March (for the moment, anyway)
Aww man. My 2nd most anticipated game this year after the last of us 2. No worries tho, a delay will hopefully iron out bugs & brings it onto course for a PS5 release. That’s the only thing that’s got me in two minds over getting new games this year, either play them on the PS4, or wait till they release on the PS5. With many games being delayed, makes it easier for me to wait & just play them all on the PS5.
Everyone so happy that they can work on their backlogs.
I wish I had a big backlog of games.
@Nightcrawler71 For me, that’s the only games that I care about until September now. We’re in freaking January and I only have two games to look forward too.
At this rate I may just wait to get the ps5 version of all the games especially with my current backlog
Why don't they just say .....
It's to close to PS5 realise date so we are all holding off because the game will launch near the PS5 window and we will loose sales so are holding off for the PS5.
At this point, I don't think I'll be playing it on the PS4. Plus, I have to clear my huge backlog.
This had spring as a release window?
I was assuming it wouldn't be out until Q4 with a PS4/PS5 release.
The year of clearing out our backlogs! Let's go, boys.
What?! I'm just dying to play it... Liked the first one enough, so I'll wait.
My backlog is ridiculous. This is all good news to me. 😹
I predicted this week's ago, it's clear that games are being held back for next gen.
nobody should be shocked, that this is yet another game for the ps5. everything delayed will be a ps5 game.
This is getting bloody ridiculous now, i'm over it, so much for 2020.
Is this Google and Stadia paying to make games come out later on PS4, as was reported last week?!
I may be in the minority here but I’m actually glad all theses games are being delayed, it’s obviously got something to do with wanting to port them over to PS5 and XSX as well as wanting more time to polish them. It just means we’ll have the option to play the games at their very best on the next gen consoles and I’m happy to wait till then.
@rjejr Where's that graph when you need it?
@Octane If you meant this kiss-of-death graph this game isn't on it, PS4 exclusives only.
Still better than the Nintendo graph - "Animal Crossing, Expansion Passes and the Port Parade"
Here we go backlog 📚 FFXV, Divinity Original Sin 2, Spider Man, Witcher 3... should keep me busy!
End of 2020 is going to be Playstation hysteria.
Delays are so common and predictable now.
Looks like another crowded holiday season for releases.... great 😩
