In Dying Light 2, there are many different ways to kills zombies and other hostiles, except for guns. Despite the fact the first game had guns, the recent title focuses on mostly medieval ways. It is logical because, during the early days of the virus, there were enough guns and ammo to be sued but as the civilization was caught under the apocalypse for 15 years, humans had to switch back to the makeshift ways.

Weapon Categories in Dying Light 2
Apart from its enjoyable and challenging Parkour, Dying Light 2 has some f the best combat mechanics in this genre. You will need weapons from the get-go to fight off the numerous amounts of threats that you will face during your gameplay. There are several types of weapons available in the game.

Barbarian
A literal sword from the medieval era, the Barbarian is one of the coolest and most powerful weapons in the game. It has a heavy build and requires two hands to wield it but each swing has massive damage to the entire infected crowd. It is the primary weapon you should have to fight beyond the numbers and tough opponents.
Shoelace Machete
A quick, makeshift weapon that you should have equipped for quick attack manoeuvres. It gives you enough agility to move and strike and a proper slash cat chops off enemies’ hands and heads with grace.
Pan of Destiny
