Bug descriptions

While playing Dying Light 2, you may experience the game crashing or freezing. This problem definitely occurs in the PS5 version, although it may also appear on other consoles and on PC. Unfortunately, as a result of the game suddenly crashing, you may be forced to restart it and there is a high chance that you will lose all progress since the game last autosaved.

Fixing or reducing the problem

Unfortunately, there is no proven solution that eliminates freezing for good. However, you can try to reduce this issue in various ways:

1. Make sure you have the latest version of the game installed to ensure that many of the bugs have already been patched out. If you have the PC version, install the latest GPU drivers and the latest version of Windows.
2. If the game keeps crashing, try to select a different graphics mode (on consoles) or change / lower the graphics quality (on PC).
3. It may be a good idea to disable the game from accessing the Internet by disconnecting your Internet connection or temporarily blocking Dying Light 2 in your firewall settings. Some crashes may result from errors with the game servers, even if you are playing in single player mode.
4. Try to use fast travel as little as possible and avoid prolonged use of the paraglider in the city. This might cause the game to encounter significant issues with loading new sections of the city.
