Techland also confirmed that cross-platform and cross-generation console cooperative play will not be available for Dying Light 2 Stay Human at launch. Cross-play between Steam and Epic Games Store users will work once the game is released on February 4. Techland recently teased that they will provide 5 years of support for their new title, so with this ambitious plan, expect a lot of exciting new content and expansions. 
New co-op information has been released:

– Besides the prologue, Dying Light 2 Stay Human will be fully playable in co-op. This also includes finishing the game.

– All session guests can keep their acquired items and player progression.

– Important choices in the game can be made by all players through voting, but the host of the session has the final choice.
