There are 20 side quests in Dying Light: The Beast. They become available gradually over the course of the story. Completing all side quests unlocks the Good Samaritan trophy and achievement. Nothing is missable, everything can still be done after the story in free-roam. However, it’s good to do these as soon as they become available to earn the XP rewards, which makes story missions easier to complete.
