The Last of Us Part 2 collectibles guide: Find ’em all

The Last of Us Part 2 is out now and has a bunch of collectibles to find across a multitude of chapters. This guide will help you find each and every one: Trading Cards, Coins, Workbenches, Safes, Journal Entries and Artefacts.

Spoilers lie ahead in terms of chapter names and collectible locations. The videos below will show you when each chapter starts but tries to avoid story-based spoilers wherever possible.

If you don’t want specific help finding the collectibles but want an idea of how many are hidden across each chapter, refer to our The Last of Us Part 2 collectibles count here.

You can always use a chapter select once you’re finished the game, so don’t worry too much if you’ve not gathered everything in one go. As soon as a collectible is picked up, it’s counted against your record. Replaying chapters doesn’t disappear any of the collectibles you’ve already grabbed, though restarting checkpoints/encounters won’t place the items back in the world. Make sure to keep your completed save so you can reload it and check your progress if need be. Back that save up too… because I might have accidentally deleted it like five times over in the hunt for all these.

Got all that? Then let’s go!
