Dying Light: The Beast just dropped on September 18, and it’s already creating a lot of buzz in the community. But beyond the survival grind, veterans of the franchise have found something familiar. Yes, the duplication glitch from previous games has made a very surprising return.
This is a game-changing glitch as it lets players duplicate items easily, essentially giving them unlimited access to weapons, ammo, and other essential crafting materials. Let’s break down how to do it and whether it’s safe to use.
How to Duplicate Your Items in Dying Light: The Beast
The duplication glitch in Dying Light: The Beast is surprisingly very easy and simple to recreate. However, it does require one skill: cooperation. The game supports up to four-player co-op, and this glitch requires at least one teammate to pull this off. Here’s the step-by-step method:
NOTE: It’s recommended to coordinate this process using voice chat, making the timing much easier.
After picking up the item at the same time, you will see that both of you will get the item, essentially duplicating the item. Since this is based on your timings, sometimes it won’t work. But don’t get discouraged, just keep repeating until your timing clicks.
And when it does, you will be duplicating items like a pro, and you won’t have to worry about conserving (or scavanging) ammo or items when shooting the infected, ever again.
Is It Safe to Use This Trick in Dying Light: The Beast?
Now that you know how to do the duplicate glitch. The big question arises: are you risking anything by using this glitch? Ban or lose items? If we look back at the previous games (where this bug was present), players who duplicated items were not banned for doing so.
Techland did count it as a game-breaking bug, but never penalized players directly in any way. And it did eventually patch the exploit out. That means you don’t have to worry and can use the exploit, but keep in mind that in future updates, this will be fixed.
Until then, it’s a great way to be free from scavenging and saving the resources for the perfect moment. As you’ll never have to worry about running out of ammo, healing supplies, or weapons again, if you’ve got a trusted teammate.
The best part about this glitch? This works across all platforms, so whether you’re playing on PC or console, you can take advantage of the duplication trick.
