If you\u2019re picking up and playing Dying Light 2<\/a> for the first time, it won\u2019t be long before you start to wonder \u2014 are there any guns in Dying Light 2?<\/p>\n

The opening act of the new Techland game puts a huge focus on melee combat, blending it with parkour to make for frenetic fights against zombies and your rival gangs of non-zombies.<\/p>\n

But are there guns in the game later on, and if so, how do you get them? Keep on reading to find out about the Dying Light 2 guns situation and all the different weapons you can get in the game.<\/p>\n

Are there guns in Dying Light 2?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

There is only one gun in Dying Light 2, and you cannot get it until you\u2019re already quite far into the story. For the most part, Dying Light 2 is a game without guns, and there are a couple of reasons for this.<\/p>\n

One reason for the lack of guns in Dying Light 2 is the fact that zombies have existed in this world for 15 years now, because that\u2019s how much time has gone by since the first game (where guns were more common). Ammo would be running seriously low by now, even if guns were readily available.<\/p>\n

Plus, in the game itself, it is stated that the army has recently raided the city of Villedor (where almost the entire game takes place) and confiscated all of the weapons they could find. As a result, the citizens of Villedor will use almost anything as a weapon, from table legs to good old-fashioned molotov cocktails.<\/p>\n

As for the one gun you can get in Dying Light 2, it\u2019s a shotgun called the Boomstick and you can learn more about it below.<\/p>

How to get the Boomstick shotgun in Dying Light 2<\/strong><\/h2>\n

To get the Boomstick shotgun in Dying Light 2, you first must complete a number of main story missions, up to and including the one titled \u2018Observatory\u2019, which occurs\u00a0after\u00a0<\/em>you have made your way to the second open-world area that\u2019s commonly referred to as \u2018The Centre\u2019 or the \u2018Central Loop\u2019.<\/p>\n

Once you\u2019ve completed the Observatory mission, any craft-master in a Peacekeeper-controlled area will be able to sell you the Boomstick blueprint (note that it\u2019s classed as an accessory in the store). The blueprint for the only gun in Dying Light 2 will set you back 400 coins.<\/p>\n

When you have the blueprint in your possession, open up your crafting menu and you\u2019ll see that it requires 100 pieces of scrap to make it. If you can\u2019t seem to work out how to get this gun, consult the video below and you should be fine!<\/p>\n
