    You might be looking for ways on how to fix survivor sense not working in Dying Light 2. We’ll show you how to fix survivor sense not working in Dying Light 2, why survivor sense isn’t working, and any other possible fixed.

    How to Fix Survivor Sense Not Working in Dying Light 2

    To fix Survivor Sense not working in Dying Light 2 you should quit the game and reload your save. Ensure you’ve saved your progress properly first. This isn’t a guarantee to fix your issue but it is a possible solution.

    You should take note that on consoles, you have to press and hold R3 to use Survivor Sense. Simply pressing the R3 on your PS4 or PS5 won’t work. Double check your settings to see if the button mapping hasn’t been reworked by accident. If your issue is the fact that Survivor Sense isn’t working at all, then quitting the game and reloading should fix any issues.

    You can also join another player’s game in Dying Light 2. This will most likely fix Survivor Sense not working for you as well. There are also other possible fixes as well.

    • Wiggle your R3 analog stick as your press it.
    • Block with your weapon and try Survivor Sense again.
    • Crouch, stand, and try Survivor Sense again.
    • Enter your inventory, exit ,and try Survivor Sense again.

    If you have an extra controller for your console, switch controllers and see if you still aren’t able to use Survivor Sense. There may be a problem with the controller you are using.

    If you are on PC and Survivor Sense is not working in Dying Light 2, try remapping the buttons. The standard Survivor Sense button mapping is “q” by default. If the above do not work for you, you can remap your buttons and test to see if the mechanic still isn’t working.

    If all of the above still fails, contact Techland support here.

    Why Is Survivor Sense Not Working in Dying Light 2?

    Survivor Sense may not be working most likely due to some bug in Dying Light 2. Expect Techland to make a hotfix for this issue soon.

    While Survivor Sense isn’t necessary to experience Dying Light 2 at its best, it is still a pretty useful tool for survivors and scavengers. It can lead to some missed opportunities to get some pretty good loot if you don’t have the mechanic. Thankfully you can still find a lot of things, and searching for GRE containers doesn’t require the use of Survivor Sense at all.

    Other players seem to have experienced this issue whether they’re playing on Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PS4, PS5, or PC. So you’re not alone.
