How many endings are there in Dying Light 2?

Although there are some permutations based on your choices, there are five endings in Dying Light 2.

This is largely influenced by a choice at the end of the final mission, X13. Here, after a final battle with Waltz, the key to stopping the missile launches is destroyed, so Lawan volunteers to detonate the missiles manually.

The final top choice for Dying Light 2 is as follows:

  • Let Lawan detonate the bombs.
  • Save Lawan

On top of this, the main permutation after this choice is whether Hakon is alive. There are multiple missions during the game in which he can die: one where you decide whether to let him die or help, and another whether you let Lawan kill him or not, and for the best outcome, you’ll want him to survive. until the end.

In addition to this, who you side with in the streaming mission and your relationship with Lawan seems to influence the ending. Although this is mostly just a short cutscene showing who runs the city if you stop the missiles, if you side with Frank/the Survivors. and The romance with Lawan, when combined with the right choice in X13 and if Hakon is alive, you can get the “best” ending where Lawan joins you.

To conclude, two options, and those branch out again based on Hakon getting to that point, and Hakon surviving with the Survivors by running the broadcasts/building a relationship with Lawan, gives us five possible endings.

You can see the general differences between the two endings in this single MELOO video on YouTube:


Let’s analyze the differences in these elections.

Dying Light 2 ‘Let Lawan Detonate the Bombs’ Final Choice Explained

If you let Lawan detonate the bombs, you try to save Mia by taking her and leaving. The base explodes, taking the missiles with it, and the city is saved.

However, whatever happens, Mia dies just a few hours after the escape, and Aiden decides to leave the city to resume his life as a pilgrim. You learn of Aiden’s fate when Spike, arriving in town to deliver a package to Frank, asks about a pilgrim.

Additionally, depending on your choice during the broadcast mission (and not your choice of faction in the facilities around the city), either the survivors or the peacekeepers take control of the city, with a short cutscene showing how the city is managed. city. Also, having a relationship with Lawan also seems to matter if she joins you in the end.

This means that there are several differences depending on the choices you have made previously.

  • If Hakon was dead, then Lawan sacrifices himself and Aiden leaves the city and goes out into the world alone.
  • If Hakon was alive, then he saves Lawan, but the peacekeepers monitor the transmissions, then Aiden leaves the city and goes out into the world on his own.
  • If Hakon was alive, then he saves Lawan, and the Survivors control the broadcasts and you build a relationship with Lawan, she joins you along the way.

You can see an example of the above – the survivors running the city and both Hakon and Lawan dead – on YouTube below:


Dying Light 2 ‘Save Lawan’ Ending Choice Explained

If you decide to save Lawan, you will go through the base, grab Lawan, and escape the base. However, that means that missiles will be launched, wiping out most of the city.

You learn of Aiden’s fate when Spike, arriving in town to deliver a package to Frank, asks about a pilgrim. This also seems to be when you hear about Mia’s fate, where you hear that although Aiden was originally looking for her sister, she reached out to someone else and saved her at all costs.

There are some differences here depending on the choices you have made previously.

  • If Hakon was alive, then he will join you on the road, according to the agreement shortly after you met. (To the ocean they go!)
  • If Hakon was dead, then Aiden leaves the city and goes out into the world alone.

  • In the story leading up to the end, have Hakon survive to the end.
  • Build a relationship with Lawan
  • Choose Let Lawan detonate the bombs in the final mission.
