On the bright side, it seems that the developer is working on a new Call of Juarez title on Unreal Engine. It’s reportedly been in development for a while, but when it will be announced remains to be seen.

In the meantime, Techland has Dying Light: The Beast launching on August 22nd for Xbox Series X/S, PS5, and PC (and later this year for Xbox One and PS4). Originally meant as Dying Light 2 DLC, it would become a standalone title and follow-up to the first game, with Kyle Crane returning as the protagonist.
