In Dying Light 2 Stay Human, scaling the massive VNC Tower is one of the most intense operational missions Aiden faces in the Central Loop. Reaching the top of Villedor's tallest skyscraper grants control over a powerful radio transmitter that can broadcast across the city. The choice you make at the peak of the tower significantly shapes the narrative, determining faction control, character survival, and available endings.
Giving the Transmitter to Frank
Handing radio control to Frank re-establishes Radio New Hope and gives a voice back to the Nightrunners and survivors. This option enables Frank to broadcast warning messages to citizens during critical story events, saving many lives later on. Choosing Frank is also essential if you are aiming for the best possible story ending with Lawan.
Siding with Jack Matt
Giving the transmitter to Peacekeeper Commander Jack Matt turns the radio frequency into a channel for military propaganda. While this choice strengthens the Peacekeeper presence, it leaves citizens uninformed during upcoming missile strikes, leading to major casualties. It cements a strict order in Villedor but alters the trajectory of Aiden's allies.
Choosing Juan and Bugging the Tower
If you ally with Juan, you can place a spy bug on the transmitter to keep tabs on Jack Matt. This path unlocks unique spy side quests that reveal dark secrets about the Peacekeeper leadership. However, like giving the control directly to Jack, it fails to warn the general public during future catastrophes.
How the VNC Choice Impacts the Ending
Your decision on top of the VNC Tower ripples all the way to the game's finale in X13. Giving control to Frank keeps key allies motivated and alive, creating the necessary path to leave the city with Lawan. On the other hand, siding with Jack Matt or Juan locks you into a Peacekeeper-dominated ending where Aiden leaves Villedor alone.
