All Sigils Locations

Eight stone sigils are hidden throughout the game world, which can lead you to one of the legendary weapons in Dying Light: The Beast.

Dr. Peter Paulander Diaries

Dr. Peter Paulander’s residence is located in the Golden Pines area, within the Villa District. Inside the house, players will find three journals that reveal more about the doctor’s history and his stay at the Asylum.

Fischer Family Documents

There are two documents related to the Fischer family. One is found in the Town Hall, while the other is located in the Asylum basement, accessible only after completing the «Cries Trapped In The Walls» mission.

What Happened at the Asylum Achievement (All Patient Files Locations)

To unlock this achievement, all six patient files must be gathered from the Asylum, a higher-level area. Access requires starting the mission «Cries Trapped In The Walls,» one of the last story missions, making completion possible during that quest chain.

Caster Woods Recipes

Players will also find nine quirky recipes scattered around the map, including dishes like strawberry pasta and beaver tail. While some can be found in the town, others are dispersed throughout the wider region.

Baron’s Research Recordings

Nine recordings from the Baron’s research are spread throughout various chimera arenas. Players need to explore eight locations in total since two recordings are found inside the same building.

And Don’t Forget to Wash Your Hands Achievement (All Hidden Truths With Spark Podcast Locations)

The eight podcasts are on cassette tapes scattered across the map. A helpful video illustrates the precise locations of each tape for players looking to collect them all.

Dr. Tal Cubero Recordings

Five recordings featuring Dr. Tal Cubero are located at two sites: a house in the Villa area and within the Asylum. The house is accessible early on, but players can only reach the Asylum later in the game.

Olivia’s Recordings

Olivia’s recordings can be found in three locations: two within the Monastery, one in the Industrial Park, and another at the westernmost Power Plant. Progressing the story far enough is essential to access these recordings.

Murals

The mural collectibles represent the largest category in Dying Light: The Beast, comprising 27 murals. Players interact with these by locating the painting supplies nearby at each mural site. A video provides guidance on where to find each mural and its corresponding painting items.
