The Arc Raiders Keeping the Memory mission is part of Celeste's questline, where you're tasked to head to Dam Battlegrounds and find a helmet from one of her fallen comrades. Like so much of Arc Raiders, the goal is less about how to interact with the thing and more simply finding it - scouring the map and wreckage near Formicai for the helmet's location. I'll show you where to look below, and what you need to do when you get it.

Keeping the Memory guide and helmet location

Where to go for Keeping the Memory in Arc Raiders

To complete Keeping the Memory, you need to head to Dam Battlegrounds and go to the area marked "Wreckage" in the South, near the Formicai Outpost. Every part of this quest is going to take place in the wreckage.

To find the helmet, you need to find the bush shown on the image above, which should be something you can interact with. It's in front of the robot wreckage, next to one of the upraised legs. Interact with the bush, and you should be able to pick up the helmet – not into your inventory, but holding it in your arms like the crates for the Arc Raiders field depots.

At this point to complete the quest, head to the pole just West of you (it's a few meters away) and place the helmet on it. At this point the mission is complete, and you can safely extract, or continue to raid the map for loot. If you're lucky, the fallen trees in the area can sometimes have Arc Raiders Mushrooms growing on them – vital if you're out to upgrade your pet Rooster.

Guides Editor, GamesRadar+

Joel Franey is a writer, journalist, podcaster and Very Tired Man with a BA from Brunel University, a Masters from Sussex University and a decade working in games journalism, often focused on guides coverage but also in reviews, features and news. His love of games is strongest when it comes to groundbreaking narratives like Disco Elysium, UnderTale and Baldur's Gate 3, as well as innovative or refined gameplay experiences like XCOM, Sifu, Arkham Asylum or Slay the Spire. He is a firm believer that the vast majority of games would be improved by adding a grappling hook, and if they already have one, they should probably add another just to be safe. You can find old work of his at Eurogamer, Gfinity, USgamer, SFX Magazine, RPS, Dicebreaker, VG247, and more.
