Techland continue to improve their 2015 game, Dying Light. Another patch went out this week and it's a nice one for Linux owners of Dying Light too.

For some people, an issue that has plagued Dying Light on Linux is a crash when using the Drop Attack ability. Techland said with Patch 1.22, that's actually been finally fixed. Additionally they said the overall stability of the game has been improved.

Testing it again today, Drop Attack as expected works nicely:

I never saw an issue with it before, but good to see their official fix for those who did see it hasn't caused any other problems in my testing.

A Borderless Window Option is also supposed to be in there, but it seems that's missing from the Linux build, which I've let them know about today. Would be great to see that added in, odd it's not there.

Dying Light is currently on sale with 66% off across Humble Store and Steam.

Curiously, Dying Light 2 which is due next year is still listing Linux in the platforms list as you can see on SteamDB. That was added 6 months ago and they haven't removed it, so that plus them still updating the Linux version of the original is hopefully a good sign.
