Techland has updated Dying Light 2 today bringing a number of modes to the PS5 version of the game including a Balanced and VRR mode.
Dying Light 2 launched without any VRR support on the PS5. Sony later added VRR support in a firmware update which was then subsequently added to other games with patches.
Dying Light 2 has joined the boat as well with an update that adds VRR support for the Performance mode. There is also a new Balanced mode providing 60 FPS at the best possible visual quality. A resolution mode is also available for those who can stick with native 4K and 30 FPS.
New options:
- Added a new Color Grading option in Video settings. Try ‘Gritty” to make your game look similar to the 2019 gameplay presentations.
- Added possibility to toggle Chromatic Aberration (on/off) in Video settings.
General improvements:

Changes to Infected:
- More Biters are now roaming the The City.
- Biters are now more aggressive at night.
- Virals are now much more vigilant and will leave their hideouts more eagerly if they hear a fight nearby.
