All skills in Dying Light 2 Stay Human

Dying Light 2 Stay Human gives you many options to take out all zombiekind, and there’s a skill tree to complete. From performing a windmill attack to making a wall run jump, here are all the skills you can expect in Dying Light 2 Stay Human.

Before we go through all the skills, you should know a few things. First, every skill costs one combat point, and as it’s a skill tree, you need the first ability to unlock the next. For example, to unlock the Dropkick, you’ll need to obtain the Air Kick skill. Some also require your health to be a certain amount, like Grapple Throw, which needs 180 health.
