Harton says “there are many more things you can use or build to improve the progression of Aiden as a character.” However, skill trees won’t be the only way to customize the main character, Aiden, in Dying Light 2. Harton also revealed that skills would be returning in Dying Light 2, but didn’t specify what players could expect, only saying that there “is a bunch of them.” The grappling hook in that game, which would let players traverse the world with ease, was unlocked through a skill, along with multiple other movement-boosting techniques.
It seems that depending on which faction players side with, the game’s world won’t just be littered with different mobile or offensive options, but players will also receive different tools for movement.Ĭompared to Dying Light, that’s a sizable change. In the featurette, Harton explains that players will earn these game-changing tools “depending on the choices you make and the people you encounter and the quests you complete,” referencing the game’s branching storyline and multiple factions.
