Dead Island 2: Guest’s Keepsake Key Location

Dead Island 2 has a lot of lockboxes and keys to find when not slaying Hell-A’s undead and terrifying mutations. Ocean Avenue is a scenic area bursting with various keys to locate and secret unlockables for players to track down, and one set of keys to find is the Guest’s Keepsake lockbox and key.

After completing Dead Island 2, many players may want to travel back to all map locations to discover every secret the zombie-killing game offers. Alternatively, other players may want to take their time to search and explore areas like Ocean Avenue to grab as many secrets as possible while progressing through the main story. Fortunately, the Guest’s Keepsake lockbox key is easy to find once players know where to look.

Guest’s Keepsake Lockbox Location In Dead Island 2

The Guest’s Keepsake lockbox shows up on the map once players reach the Sterling Hotel and meet Dr. Reed on completing Dead Island 2‘s main story quest called The Final Gauntlet. After getting some sleep, players wake up in one of the Hotel rooms where the Guest Keepsake box is on the table. To open it, players must find and kill the correct named zombie with the key.

Many of Dead Island 2‘s zombies with keys won’t appear until players reach particular points in the main story, so if there’s no named zombie around, it’s time to progress further and come back later. However, the Guest’s Keepsake key zombie does spawn after defeating Butcho the Clown and on beginning the Search for the Truth main story quest, so players may prefer to do this first and then use Dead Island‘s fast-travel map to return to the Serling Hotel before they start searching.

Exit the Serling Hotel and head to the alley between Venture Walk and Stoker Pl, defeating any zombies in the area as necessary. This might include some of Dead Island 2‘s hardest zombies, like Butchers, who may spawn depending on how many story missions players have completed. There’s a gate on the left to enter the alley through a rare unlocked door.

A couple of zombies roam the alley, and players may notice one of them is named Serling Guest. To get the Guest’s Keepsake key, players must defeat the zombie named Serling Hotel Guest, who drops the Guest’s Keepsake key when killed.

Return to the Serling Hotel to open the Guest’s Keepsake lockbox to get 100 dollars cash and unlock the energizing weapons perk blueprint. This is a Dead Island 2 weapon mod that increases stamina after killing a zombie.

Dead Island 2 is out now for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S.
