However, before players are able to unlock incredible skills such as Stab or Tic Tac, they will need to level up. To level up in Dying Light, players will need to earn XP for both Parkour and Combat.
In short, this can be done by either parkouring around the City or fighting Infected and completing quests. By completing quests and various activities, players will earn XP towards either Combat or Parkour.
Eventually, if players earn enough XP, they will unlock a skill point that can be used to gain either Combat or Parkour abilities. That said, here's the complete list below of all Skills in Dying Light 2.
