The Last of Us 2 All Collectibles Locations Guide & Walkthrough
Our The Last of Us 2 all collectibles locations guide & walkthrough shows you the locations of each and every workbench, trading card, artifact, coin, journal entry, safe, training manual, and weapon in the game. To navigate this collectibles guide use the links shared below to go to the pages dedicated to each specific mission you wish to see the collectibles for. Before jumping right into the guide I recommend getting started read the notes below to get a better understanding of the collectibles in this game.
Notes on TLOU 2 Collectibles
Before jumping into the guide note that the majority of collectibles in the TLOU 2 need to be picked up to be counted as collected. Things like the Artifacts, Coins, and Trading Cards are all found in the physical world. The only collectibles that don’t have to be picked up are ones received for story reasons, Journal Entries and Workbenches. Workbenches have a radius you around them you need to enter to count them, but I would personally interact with each one you find.
If at any point while following the guides below you miss a collectible you can replay a chapter by going to the Title Screen > Chapter Select. Keep in mind your save file is very important as chapter select is tied to progression in the currently loaded save game. If your save is at the end of the game you will have access to all chapters. Be sure you have a manual save made for your furthest story progression before playing a chapter.
To make finding collectibles easier in game you can use an Accessibility option for enhanced listing mode. To turn on this feature go to Options > Accessibility > Navigation and Traversal > Enhanced Listening Mode = ON, Scan Range = 30M, Scan Time = 1S. When this is features is turned on your hearing ability will ping collectibles around you, making it easier to find them in the world.
