In the new survival horror game Dying Light 2, a curious Easter egg is currently causing a stir in the community. It involves a soccer ball, fireworks, and a dancing zombie. We at MeinMMO summarize.
What is this Easter egg? The curious secret is hidden in an abandoned soccer field in Dying Light 2. There, you can find not just the usual abandoned buildings and containers, but also a soccer ball. The goal of the field is still somewhat intact.
You can probably guess what happens next. You have to kick the ball into the goal. To do this, you need to place it in front of the goal and then use your kick function to send the round object into the square.
If you succeed, it triggers a kind of electric fireworks around the goal. This is not just visually impressive, but it also drops a sword into the goal that you can take with you.
If you pick up this sword, a large zombie will appear and scare you. This is a kind of mini-boss, but only at first glance. After a few seconds, the zombie starts dancing and cheers for your goal.
Where can you find the goal? The goal is located on a secured level in the north of the Saint Joseph Hospital. From there, you can go to the soccer field and find the ball in front of you that you need to kick into the goal.
The community celebrates the hidden gimmick
How do the fans react? The Easter egg appeared in the afternoon of February 22 on reddit and generated 216 upvotes within the first 6 hours. This is relatively high for the subreddit.
In the comments, users celebrate the soccer game and are already wondering how many hidden gimmicks are still hidden in the survival horror game. Many also make jokes about how they could make the Easter egg even more bizarre and funny.
- User GalacticRabaut writes: ‘Instead of playing alone, you should do this at night. Then you can attract a lot of zombies and play goal hunt with them on the field.’
- chunksofstuff is thrilled: ‘Definitely not! This is just genius!’
- sixyoutraitor is a little confused and writes: ‘What the hell did I just see?’
- Petepeyote simply says: ‘This is beautiful.’
