Dying Light The Beast How to Leave Town Hall
Leaving Town Hall isn’t a free choice. The doors stay locked until you complete the Life After Life quest. To exit, you’ll need to clear enemies, face the Chimera, and then climb the tower with Sheriff. Once the power is restored, the cutscene ends the mission and drops you back into Old Town.
Clear the Patio and Defeat the Chimera
Fight through the inner patio by blowing up fuel tanks or using ranged weapons to thin the crowd. After clearing normal infected, the Chimera named Defect enters. Focus on headshots and heavy attacks to finish the fight.
Meet the Survivors
When the Chimera falls, survivors hiding in a conference room open the way forward. Jacob explains that Sheriff is still in the tower, and the power remains out. Your next goal is climbing the tower to reach her.
Climb the Tower
Head upstairs using the broken banisters and pull yourself onto the second floor. Move toward the raised tower ladder, but you’ll run into a wounded ranger first. After the short dialogue, climb through the hatch above right there nearby.
Using your flashlight, jump onto the box in the corner to reach the ledge, then scale around carefully. From there, leap across the gap and continue climbing along the wall. Once you make it to the far side, pull up to the ladder and climb higher into the tower. This is where you finally meet Sheriff at the top, fighting off infected.
Restore the Power
Zipline to the nearby building and clear the room. Pick the lock in the back to access the power box. Take the cable through the vent, climb the clock tower columns and hands, and plug it back into the tower’s panel. Once the line is fixed, a cutscene ends the quest.
Final Blurb
You can’t leave Town Hall in Dying Light: The Beast until you finish the Life After Life quest. Defeat the Chimera, talk with Jacob, then climb the tower to reach Sheriff. After the hatch climb and ledge scaling sequence, you’ll restore power and exit automatically through a cutscene into Old Town.
