Surviving an apocalypse doesn’t leave much time to worry about trinkets and valuables—but that doesn’t mean they aren’t useful. While exploring the world as Kyle Crane, a parkour expert and survivalist, you’ll come across a variety of items that don’t explode when zombies attack.
So what should you do with discarded smartphones, bracelets, and computer parts? Is selling them the right choice? Here’s everything you need to know.
Should You Sell Valuables in Dying Light: The Beast?
Yes—you should always sell valuables you find during your exploration at the various traders in the game.
Any item marked with the “valuable” tag doesn’t serve any practical purpose. You can’t use them for crafting weapons, ammo, or mods. Instead, valuables can be sold for in-game currency, which you can then spend on gear, resources, and upgrades.
Money—called “Old World Money”—isn’t abundant during exploration, which is why selling every valuable you find is always a good idea.
How to Sell Valuables
To sell valuables in Dying Light: The Beast, visit any trader. From the trader’s menu, either sell items individually through the “SELL” tab, or hold C to sell all valuables in your inventory at once.
This also shows how much total cash you’ll earn and saves time deciding which items to sell. The rule is simple: sell all valuables—you don’t need to overthink it.
Where to Find Valuables
Valuables are scattered throughout the world, but they are especially common in Dark Zone areas. These zones are the creepy hives where enemies lurk, ready to attack. Don’t worry too much—early Dark Zones are quite manageable. A good strategy is to stealth-kill infected enemies and clear the area efficiently.
For reference, after exploring just one small Dark Zone, you can collect a significant number of valuables.
How to Scan for Valuables
If you want to thoroughly search every building and room, your best friend is the Survivor Sense (Q). Use it frequently to highlight all lootable items in your surroundings.
This tool doesn’t just reveal weapons and resources—it also highlights valuables, making sure you don’t miss any.
In summary: Yes, always sell valuables in Dying Light: The Beast. Don’t hoard them—they have no other use besides earning you cash.
