Dying Light 2 Easter Egg Pays Tribute To DOOM & Id Software
Techland's Dying Light 2: Stay Human hides a secret challenge room Easter egg that pays homage to the genre-defining first-person shooter, DOOM, and its original developers from the 90s. Despite suffering from a troubled development cycle for almost a decade and being delayed twice, Dying Light 2 officially released on February 4 across consoles and PC. While being praised for its gameplay, its story elements have been criticized and many of its numerous technical issues have deemed it unplayable by many.
Easter Eggs have become a major staple in video games and the developers at Techland have taken the tradition to whole new levels over the years. While most games have a numbered amount of Easter eggs, Techland has added more than a handful in each title, ranging from references, hidden codes, weapons, and even entire levels, and Dying Light 2 is no different. Despite being out for only a week, players have already discovered numerous secrets and callbacks to other major franchises. Most recently, a pair of unique sneakers that allow players to triple jump has been uncovered in Dying Light 2 and are a cut-clear Super Mario reference, proving that the open-world of Villedor is full of more secrets and Easter eggs waiting to be discovered by those who are inquisitive.
