| THE GRAFICAL PART |
In this subsection of our review, the main graphical aspects of this game are revealed. Particular attention is paid to the version of the graphics engine used, the version of the API used, graphics settings and the quality of the development of the main visual aspects.
In this test, we present the final annual review for the game Dying Light 2: Stay Human, which was tested at maximum graphics quality settings with ray tracing.
| SUPPORTED OC AND GRAPHICS API |
Dying Light 2: Stay Human is supported on Windows 10/11.
The priority and primary graphics API for Serious Dying Light 2: Stay Human is DX11/ DX12 .
| GAME ENGINE |
Dying Light is based on the Chrome Engine. Chrome Engine is a series of game engines developed and maintained by the Polish company Techland. The first version of the engine was developed in 2003 for use in Techland's own fantasy 3D first-person shooter "Chrome". Later, the engine was successfully used by the company in games of other genres, not limited to shooters.
1C licensed the engine to collaborating developers, as a result of which it was used in the 4WD series of car simulators, as well as in the games Expedition Trophy: Murmansk-Vladivostok, Black Sea Rally and GM Rally. Another company, City Interactive, which develops and publishes games, uses Chrome in most of its developments. For example, in the shooters Code of Honor, The Hell in Vietnam, Mortyr 3, Sniper: Ghost Warrior, etc.
"Chrome Engine" is constantly being improved and finalized by the developer company. There are currently six versions of the game engine.

Our video cards were tested at 1920x1080, 2560x1600 and 3840x2160 resolutions at the maximum default graphics quality settings with ray tracing.
- we will release annual tests every other day if possible, but everything will depend on the supply of electricity
- there will be no DLSS and FSR in the annual tests, since they are not supported by all games and do not bring any useful result for the overall results
- due to the difficult conditions with the supply of e-va and the problematic conduct of large-scale tests in each game there will always be one setting that gives the maximum quality of graphics, and if the maximum quality is ray tracing, then it will only be ray tracing
- in the tests, only video cards and processors that affect only the final review, which are currently relevant and on sale - for video cards, these are only solutions with hardware support for ray tracing
| GPU TEST |
In the test of video cards, the default resolution is 1920x1080, other resolutions are added and removed manually. You can also remove and add any positions of video cards. You can also select any of our test processors from the list in the drop-down menu, comparing its performance with the given video card tests (by default, the most productive solution is selected). The test is carried out on the most productive CPU in this game and is scaled to other processors, taking into account their testing on NVIDIA and AMD video cards.
At a resolution of 1920x1080, an average FPS of 25 frames was shown by video cards of the Radeon RX 6600 or GeForce RTX 3050 level . A minimum FPS of at least 25 frames can be provided by video cards of the level Radeon RX 6650 XT or GeForce RTX 2060s . A comfortable average FPS of 60 frames can be provided by Radeon RX 6900 XT or GeForce RTX 3070 solutions .
At a resolution of 2560x1440 , an average FPS of 25 frames was shown by video cards of the level Radeon RX 6700 XT or GeForce RTX 2070s .
