The Revenant — Dying Light 2 Stay Human Walkthrough

Discover all Mementos in Dying Light 2 Stay Human, including base game, DLC, and event collectibles. Learn about achievements and how to find every note.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Base Game Mementos: 117 notes are available in the base game. Some are missable and tied to story progression or side quests. For example, 'Newspaper Article - October 11th, 2020' can be found in the prologue area or Old Villedor. 'Letter - Goodbye Letter' is story-related in the prologue. 'Paradise Lost, Book IV' is in the prologue church or Central Loop. GRE reports from Quartermaster Pike are found in Old Villedor's underground parking lot during 'The Ball is in Your Court' side quest.
  2. 2
    Chapter 2 Mementos: 14 notes were added in patch 1.6.
  3. 3
    Bloody Ties DLC Mementos: 32 notes are part of the Bloody Ties DLC. 26 are in Carnage Hall and 6 are in Villedor. To get the 'Connoisseur' achievement, you need to find 36 out of 37 collectibles (32 mementos and 5 tapes), with one tape being story-gated.
  4. 4
    The Walking Dead Event Mementos: 7 notes were added in patch 1.11 for a limited-time event (July-August 2023) and were later purchasable until July 2024.
  5. 5
    Firearms Update Mementos: 6 notes were added in patch 1.15 (2024).
  6. 6
    Patch 1.27 Mementos (2026): This patch added 33 notes. 10 are obtained through low-chance drops from human enemies after purchasing The Black Hand bundle and equipping the outfit. 23 notes were related to past events.
  7. 7
    Infected Outbreak Event: Part of Patch 1.27, this event (Feb 12–Mar 9, 2026) included 4 secret files tied to community kill milestones and enemy-dropped lootboxes. Not all secret files were unlocked within the original schedule.
  8. 8
    Year of the Horse Event: This Lunar New Year event (Feb 17–24, 2026) involved opening 'red envelopes' lootboxes with a two-stage RNG to obtain 9 event notes.
Tips
  • The 'Archivist' achievement is awarded for collecting all 117 original collectible notes. Be mindful of missable notes tied to missions and choices; save before critical decisions.
  • Some mementos, especially those added in later patches and events, are time-limited, require purchases, or rely on RNG, leading to player complaints about accessibility.
  • Community guides, videos, and co-op partners can be helpful for finding all collectibles, especially missable ones or those from timed events.
  • Farming outbreak spawns can be done by using howlers or grenades near trucks in outbreak zones.
  • Collecting all 117 base game notes awards the 'Archivist' achievement.
  • Collecting all Bloody Ties collectibles (mementos and tapes) awards the 'Connoisseur' achievement.
