Dying Light 2: Stay Human is a 2022 action role-playing game developed and published by Techland. The sequel to Dying Light (2015), the game was released on February 4, 2022 for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S. (Wikipedia).

Engine: C-Engine. We test using the High preset, DX12 API.

Interestingly, Dying Light 2 delivered the biggest relative gains for each GPU tested – and anomalously so, with the performance gains shown by the 6X50 cards much larger in this title than any other game I tested. My working theory is that AMD has made some driver optimisations for Dying Light 2 that weren't present when I tested the original 6600/6700/6900 XT, but I have not yet had time to test that – I will be sure to report back if I do find other performance increases for AMD GPUs.
