  • On PlayStation, upload your most recent save to PS+ Cloud storage
  • On Xbox, quit the game in the place where you wish to save and ensure your cloud save backup has uploaded
  • On PC, find where your Dying Light 2 save file is stored and make a copy of it that you can use later

Once you have backed up your save, you can do the glitch. When playing co-op, drop the item you want to duplicate and have your friend pick it up. As soon as they pick up the item, exit the game and overwrite your save file with the backup.

  • For PlayStation, overwrite your save by forcing the PS+ cloud to overwrite
  • On Xbox you need to delete your local save data in the game options from the console
    • Then, start the game with no local save data
    • Your uploaded cloud save will automatically download  
  • For PC you can simply replace your new file with the one you created earlier 

After successfully restarting the game, you will notice that your item is still in your inventory. Plus, your friend will also have the item he just picked up. Continue doing this to duplicate valuable equipment and sell it for a profit to get the Who Wants To Be A… achievement.
