Scorpio stands out as a remarkably potent and unique firearm obtainable in Dying Light 2. Functioning primarily as a Harpoon launcher, it surprises when you press the Square or X button, activating the hammer on the opposite end to pulverize any Infected in your path. Boasting 737 damage, a Bleeding effect, and +40% bonus damage to status-afflicted enemies, this weapon is a must-have for any dedicated Viral Hunter. But how exactly can you acquire it?
Where Can You Get the Scorpio in Dying Light 2?
To obtain the Scorpio gun, complete the Week 1 Bounties during Dying Light 2’s 2nd Anniversary event, spanning 20 days. These bounties are active from February 22nd to March 14th. Here are the four bounties you must clear, which you can activate on the Pilgrim Outpost official companion website:
- Defeat 10 enemies with a finisher.
- Complete the “Run Boy Run” Community Map with any medal.
- Stay alive for 1 minute while being chased.
- Cut 50 limbs off Infected.
If you encounter difficulty subscribing to the “Run Boy Run” Community Map, you can bypass the issue by logging in and out several times in the Other section of the Community Maps. This should allow you to open and subscribe to the custom map.
Remember, you must play Dying Light 2 during the event period to unlock the Scorpio. Techland has yet to provide details on unlocking the OP weapon at a later date if you miss the Anniversary. However, speculation within the fanbase suggests the gun may be added to the in-game store in the following weeks or months. Let’s hope that’s the case.
How to Participate in Anniversary Bounties
To participate in and activate the Anniversary Bounties, link your Dying Light 2 account with the official Pilgrim Outpost companion website. Then, access the site’s Anniversary Bounties page, activate up to four bounties simultaneously, and complete them in-game.
Once you’ve completed the bounties, return to the Anniversary Bounties page and click the yellow Claim button below the Scorpio image. Finally, open your Dying Light 2 Stash in the Safe Zone to redeem the Scorpio in the Miscellaneous items category. Remember to claim the bounty rewards on the Pilgrim Outpost page by April 14th!
