Dying Light 2 Inhibitors are the most important collectable in the game, as you need them to upgrade your health and stamina levels. Higher health and stamina levels, in turn, are needed to unlock certain combat and parkour skills. So if you want to become the fastest and strongest Pilgrim the post-apocalyptic world has ever seen, you need to start looking for as many Dying Light 2 Inhibitor locations as possible. 

The thing is, there are 126 inhibitors in Dying Light 2. To see how many of these legendary consumables you’ve already got, check the ‘skills’ tab in your menu. Here’s how to find the rest!

How to find Inhibitors in Dying Light 2

Inhibitors are usually hidden in GRE containers. If you’re near one such container, your GRE Access Key will help you find it (lower left corner of the screen). You will also hear a voice that says: “inhibitor container detected” or “inhibitor container nearby.” If you’re less than 10 meters away, you’ll see the container’s location marker pop up on the screen.

Inhibitor containers are found in the following locations:

  • GRE Quarantines: The inhibitor crates are hidden inside a building full of Infected.
  • GRE Anomalies: The inhibitor is next to a Special Infected. You have to take down the monster first.
  • Military Airdrops: Usually (and inconveniently) on top of very high buildings.
  • Metro Stations: They tend to appear in stations after powering them.
  • Random locations: Some of them are just sitting inside a pretty ordinary building, waiting to be discovered. These crates are the hardest to find.

How to get your first Dying Light 2 Inhibitors

To get the first six Inhibitors and unlock the feature, simply play through the main questline. You will get the first three from Hakon right after an incident at the Bazaar, and the second during the Markers of Plague quest. From that moment onwards, you’re free to look for them yourself.
