Review analysis summary (Reviewed Oct 13, 2026)

Smooth parkour wins praise, but a removed prologue drives much of the criticism of this sequel, which holds 69.2.

👍 Strengths

63 reviews say the parkour flows smoothly, with excellent vaulting and climbing, and 46 praise the freedom of fully upgraded traversal, a few comparing it to Spider-Man. 52 enjoy the play and its real challenge, and players call the setting and visuals beautiful. Some say co-op works well, and Gameplay comes up in 65% of analyzed reviews. In Dying Light 2 Stay Human: Reloaded Edition, players also enjoy the freedom of moving across rooftops once the full skill set is unlocked.

👎 Where it falls short

Story & World ranks 1060th of 1096. 105 reviews object to story changes, the most upvoted to a removed prologue that tied the game to a character from the first one, and others say it disrespects longtime players. 52 report a buggy third person camera with clipping. Others say everything looks the same with repeated activities, and Visuals & Sound ranks 794th of 1249.
