Special Circumstances For Finding The Secrets
It's worth noting that some secrets can only be obtained after specific actions have been completed, or when playing in certain game modes. We've listed the secrets with special requirements and any notes on them below.
One of the biggest limitations to you completing your collection is the need to begin the game again with the Curator's Cut, which unlocks the final two secrets.
- To find Secret 2: FBI Badge, Charlie must have survived the incinerator trap in Ignition. Nobody else enters this area during your playthrough, so Charlie is the only one capable of finding it.
- To find Secret 25: Real Human Teeth, you must successfully hide as Mark in the scene, as well as not fail any QTEs before regaining control of him to explore the area.
- Secret 27: Sherman Tape 4 is unmissable - it unlocks after the cutscene of Du'Met and the smoking, animatronic corpse.
- To find Secret 28: Lucinda Munday Medical Report and Secret 17: Funeral Invitation, you must be playing the Curator's Cut of the game, which is unlocked after beating it once through in the Theatrical Cut. The Party scene is not included in the Theatrical Cut.
