There’s more to do on the island of Banoi than just curb-stomping zombies and running perilous errands for people who claim they’re too busy (we’re looking at you Sinamoi). There are over 150 collectibles to find that are good for two achievements/trophies: “Gotta find ‘em all” (60 found) and “Nearly There” (120 found). We’ve mapped out the locations of these collectibles for all four of the game’s major areas and have searched every corner of the game’s sub-areas so that you can make quick and easy work of this daunting task. Happy hunting!
Every collectible has an accompanying text description. Those found in a sub-areas have screenshots as well, since there are no maps for these smaller sections.
Note: due to some of Dead Island’s infamous bugs, we were unable to locate a few of the collectibles. Fortunately, there are more than 150 in the game, which is far more than the 120 required for the achievement/trophy. On top of that, the game’s internal counter for the achievement progress seems to be buggy (on Xbox 360 at least), so you may earn your achievement long before hitting 120. We certainly did!
Resort

#3 (Banoi Herald Excerpt #12) Inside Harlan’s hut, near the foot of the bed.
#4 (Banoi Herald Excerpt #11) Inside the bunker in the northwestern section of the Resort. Look above the work bench. You won’t have access to this bunker until Act 2, but if you leap to your death from the high ledge surrounding the bunker, you may just respawn inside. The only way to get out would then be the quick travel map on the wall. Yay bugs!
