Just as anyone would imagine in a zombie apocalypse, friends and allies are extremely hard to come by. This is no different for Dying Light 2. With limited resources, and a horde of undead enemies around, having an extra set of hands to hold some weapons or help in other ways can be very beneficial.

Players should ultimately make a decision that they feel is right, however.

What happens if players choose to let Hakon die?

If players choose not to help Hakon, this can change the overall arc of the story, at least in side missions and quests of that nature.

Hakon would be absent from the story if he is deceased and players could miss out on dialogue or other aspects of Hakon's presence during the game if they choose not to save him.

Dying Light 2 does not have just one ending, so players should feel free to experiment with their choices in the best way they see fit. After all, there is a lot of replay value in being able to go back through the game and see how the other choices could have changed the game.

Overall, players should do what they feel is right for them, because they are the ones who have to live with their choices.

Spoiler alert: it is better to save Hakon for the benefit of the player and the City.
