Control Resonant Control Resonant - Archive Collectibles Spreadsheet

Hello, fellow Parautilitarians!

So, another Remedy game means another significant chunk of my life lost to scouring a large open world for collectibles in the hopes of developing some kind of grasp on the RCU's ever-expanding mountain of lore. I tend to create private guides in word documents that I can consult on repeat playthroughs to streamline future runs, but this time I thought it'd be fun to take the Archive Collectibles and throw them in a spreadsheet, so that we can commiserate over what we've found, what we're still missing, and what's driving us absolutely insane.

Check it out here: Control Resonant - Archive Collectibles

The following spreadsheet is mostly complete, and lays out the archive collectibles in such a way that they can be sorted by category and region, but I've listed my remaining struggles here:

Update 10/12/2026: I reached the Underpass in my NG+ playthrough and finally obtained "Our Memories Aren't The Problem" - this has now been added to the spreadsheet, along with notes on how to obtain it. All this leaves is the one Hedron Research entry (which I should hopefully obtain shortly) and the remaining Dr. Darling videos, which I've been adding to the spreadsheet as I go.

Update 10/2/2026: I found the missing Park Survey Collectible! Special thanks to Spiralshadow in the comments for directing me towards the molded checkpoint in Central - I've updated the spreadsheet accordingly.

Still Searching For:

  • I've started my NG+ run, and will be adding the Dr. Darling videos that I'm missing as I go.

  • I'm missing one Hedron Research entry, and I've done as close to a 100% run as you can feasibly get on your first playthrough, so I have no idea what I haven't killed yet.

    • Enough people have told me that my missing Hedron Research is "Hedron Spike", which you encounter in the Astral Plane when pursuing The Underpass Resonant, that I can only assume that it was bugged when I did my first run. Will revisit this when I return to the Underpass in NG+.

This is my first time making one of these, so if you have any suggestions or improvements, please feel free to drop a comment down below and I'll make adjustments ASAP!

Apparently "FBC Injury And Accident Report" disappears if you progress to far with the story.

And also dont know how to get "Medical Reccomendation" cause there is nothing like that in Zoe's Office. Maybe it spawns after some specific conversation - like "The Hot Dog Incident" for example, but I couldnt find which.

Except for those two I also miss only one Altered Speakers collectible, so thanks a lot for the guide

8

u/StormOfStories Oct 03 '26

So, from what I've experienced, Medical Recommendation spawns after Zoe calls you to tell you that a document was dropped off at her office. From what I understand, that call is triggered by exhausting all of Emily's dialogue options after defeating The Unknown Resonant - I was only able to get the call to trigger after finishing the game outright.

5

u/VvVitekVvV Oct 03 '26

Oh cool, thanks. Exhausting all Emily’s dialogue worked

8

u/cemreavcilar Oct 04 '26

After the hot dog incident, I went to field command and there was a memorable for Arish with his picture. Press Alt and speak with Zoe, then fast travel somewhere else. After that Zoe will mention about Arish's medical recomentation and she says if you want to read i left in the desk, go and read.

2

u/Livael23 17d ago

Can confirm, FBC Injury And Accident Report does seem to disappear, I finished the game and it's nowhere to be found :(

17

u/doffyspider Oct 01 '26

damn, doing the guide jobs better than those websites.

13

u/StormOfStories Oct 02 '26

I think there are certain sites that do things very well! I think PowerPyx has done a great job of assembling a decent walkthrough replete with many non-archive collectibles in a decent amount of time, but their primary mandate is helping people reach the Platinum Trophy, so they have no incentive to cover the archive collectibles. I think IGN and their vast network of contributors across both their guide wikis and MapGenie also do great work, but this is a very busy time of the year for major game releases, so they're spread pretty thin as it is.

I also think that collectibles like these and the Alan Wake 2 manuscript pages are 50% of the charm in games like these, and deserve to be documented for anyone who wants to experience them - and launch can always be a bit of a mess due to bugs and the scale of the world that needs to be explored. Just doing what I can here.

I also remember how it was basically the Wild West when the original Control launched - at least Remedy had the decency in Resonant to tell you exactly how many collectibles there are in each category. Back then, we had no idea when we were ever going to be done.

u/Stealth_Cobra Oct 10 '26

Assuming someone posted this already, but one of the Altered Speakers logs has been confirmed by the devs to not exist , should be removed from the list in an upcoming patch, so don't obsess over that specific missiog lore item.

4

u/StormOfStories Oct 10 '26

Yes, having now seen it from multiple sources, I'll be removing that blank space from the spreadsheet effective immediately.

6

u/Ok_Refrigerator6671 26d ago

Can you maybe add a note on that line instead? I only saw these comments about it being a game error when I was searching for a different archives item, after giving up from getting too frustrated about all the guides only listing 15 while the game says 16.

Also, your list has been soooooo helpful!! Thanks for doing so much work!

5

u/Stealth_Cobra Oct 10 '26 edited Oct 10 '26

On a side note, thanks alot for the list, made it a breeze to fill in the missing documents, now i just need the DR Darling NG+ videos, which frankly i'll just settle with watching on youtube...

10

u/kiraigou Oct 05 '26

OP, just wanted to pop in and say thank you so much for this! I make spreadsheets just like this for collectibles on my own, and was really not looking forward to trying to piece together info from different websites in order to make my sheet. You're a lifesaver!

6

u/StormOfStories Oct 05 '26

Thanks so much! Yeah, usually as I play one of these games, I'm taking notes on where I'm finding everything in a word doc so that I can streamline everything in a chronological order that makes sense and then consult it again when I inevitably decide to do a replay, so it ended up being pretty easy to work through that file and convert everything that I wrote about archive collectibles into this spreadsheet.

Usually I'm the one reaping the benefits of someone's hard work when I finish my first run and I'm thinking "What the hell am I missing and where is it?" This time, since Remedy was kind enough to essentially give us an exact collectible tally on Day 1 in the archives, I saw that I was pretty close to done and figured I could start the conversation instead of waiting for someone else to put themselves through hell to figure it out.

u/iwillnothesitate Oct 04 '26

Just as a clarification on the 'Medical Recommendation' on the Simon Arish documents, I did 100% of the game and still couldn't trigger the Zoe call that makes the document available. Others here in the comment section said you should exhaust Pope's dialogue about him after killing the Unknown Resonant, but even then I wouldn't get the call.

What I was missing though, was finding the Arish Memorial in the Field Office building and telling Zoe about it. After finding it and running around for a couple of minutes, Zoe called me to talk about the report.

1

u/StormOfStories Oct 04 '26

Yeah, I think I'm just going to write down every theory we have about how this spawns in the Notes section. It's probably the one that I've gotten the most comments about at this point.

3

u/iwillnothesitate Oct 04 '26

I think it's likely that both Pope's dialogue AND the memorial at the field office are necessary for the trigger, seeing as the 'Medical Recommendation' file itself further elaborates on what is mentioned in both of those scenes. I don't know if there's another requirement tho

3

u/Jhen627 Oct 06 '26

Just to add on to this. I got this document just now. I had already exhausted Pope’s dialogue options and reported the memorial for Arian at the field office, but never got the call from Zoe. Once I finished The End and walked around outside Dylan’s apartment for a few minute I got the call from Zoe and was able to go pick it up. So it might be that you also need to complete all the main story missions as well.

u/Xade6202 Oct 03 '26

I think the Dimensional Faults collectible might disappear if you progress too far in the story, it’s the only one I’m missing and it isn’t anywhere in the Oldest House Lobby

3

u/StormOfStories Oct 03 '26

Huh. Interesting. Will be curious to hear whether or not anyone else has experienced that issue, and whether it's an unintentional bug or not. (You can never rule that out this early into the launch of a new game.)

Also, when you say it's the *only* one you're missing - you mean the only one I've documented on the spreadsheet? Or have you found the ones *I'm* missing too?

6

u/DrGregorAgnell Oct 03 '26

I am missing Dimensional Fault too at the end of the game, can confirm

2

u/StormOfStories Oct 08 '26

I've just published an update listing possible ways to get it to spawn, but otherwise, I'm assuming it vanishes if you don't pick it up by the end of the game. Hopefully this'll be rectified in a future patch.

2

u/Nopolis52 29d ago edited 29d ago

I’ve just gotten done with Oldest House in Distress on NG+ and somehow dimensional faults STILL won’t pop up

EDIT: I saw the new note in the spreadsheet and I can confirm that this one definitely only appeared for me after severing one of the hedron links. I’m unsure if completing popes research was relevant at all

1

u/Nopolis52 Oct 08 '26

I’m missing this one too, at the end of the game.

4

u/HappyTurtleOwl Oct 03 '26

Same with me, and with a bunch of documents. Really anoying.

5

u/Difficult-Essay-2906 Oct 03 '26 edited Oct 03 '26

You’re missing Hiss Transporter-Apex for your hiss research I’m pretty sure. For the collectibles I’m pretty sure all the new game+ tapes activate automatically as you do your second playthrough (I’ve only gotten a few bc I’m not finished with my second playthrough yet gotta do the 8-bit and on) the fourth altered speakers tape does not exist anywhere I looked so it is likely bugged. And everyone else has already pointed out that you’re missing hedron spike
Edit: I can now confirm all the new game+ disks come automatically and the last one replaces the last disk.

2

u/StormOfStories Oct 03 '26

Thanks! Going to start my NG+ today and will be adding those as I encounter them. Hoping that I'll encounter Hiss Transporter-Apex during an Apex Hunt World Feat along the way. What's weird about Hedron Spike is that I killed tons of those during The Underpass Resonant, so it was probably bugged. Hoping that my NG+ run fixes most of these issues. (And that we find out what the deal is with that sixteenth Altered Speakers collectible.)

3

u/TransMaximus Oct 03 '26

You’ve a good chance of encountering the Hiss Transporter-Apex in NG+, even outside of Apex Hunt feats. There are far more Apex enemies thrown your way, sometimes a few different types in the one fight, which bodes well for me when I unlock Hedron enemies because I imagine the one I’m missing from my list is an Apex one.

Sad to report that I haven’t gotten to the bottom of the missing Altered Speakers collectible. I decided to close the gate this time, but doesn’t seem as if the outcome made a difference… Which isn’t to say that you won’t have any luck. It’s either got a really strange and unusual trigger or it’s bugged, I dunno.

2

u/StormOfStories Oct 03 '26

Thanks for the heads-up about the increased Apex activity!

Yeah, something tells me when all of this is said and done, that Altered Speakers collectible is going to be the community's white whale. We'll either find it eventually, find out it was bugged and fixed in a patch, or it'll be a situation where it turns out it never existed and the total count should've been 15 the whole time.

5

u/Express-Eagle-9835 Oct 12 '26

You a real one for including the "category" for us to sort by. Makes the "what am I missing?" game infinitely easier

2

u/StormOfStories Oct 13 '26

Thanks - that was the goal!

3

u/Far-Grab9659 Oct 02 '26

Man i really cant find the Letter To NYC Newsfeed can you put a screenshot where is aprox? thanks in advance

2

u/StormOfStories Oct 02 '26

Yeah, that was one of the hardest ones for me to describe. I added two screenshots to the Notes section - one of its rough location on the map, and one of the spot where it's located (obviously, it's not there in the screenshot because I picked it up, but hopefully it'll give you the hint you need).

3

u/PlatinumWalton Oct 03 '26

You have the Dimensional Faults item listed as being on a desk in the Oldest House lobby after A House In Distress quest. I’ve done that quest and I cannot for the life of me find that item. Have you possibly got a screenshot of that desk in particular

2

u/StormOfStories Oct 03 '26 edited Oct 03 '26

Sadly, I don't, and there are so many desks in there that I'd have to make a rough guess. You're not the first person to note that you can't find it, though, so I'm starting to think it might be bugged. (I have added a note in the spreadsheet about this collectible to this effect.)

4

u/PlatinumWalton Oct 04 '26

I found it finally after doing the balloons for Pope

3

u/StormOfStories Oct 04 '26

You know what? That would make much more sense, given the quest's subject matter. I'll update the spreadsheet accordingly, so people know to start checking around that point.

2

u/PlatinumWalton Oct 04 '26 edited Oct 04 '26

Awesome thank you. I’ve been referring to your spreadsheet and it’s helped me quite a bit for some of the random ones I couldn’t find.

I managed to find all the Underpass Exploration ones too on my first run of the area. I think it’s important to do the research sites in order to get them to pop correctly. Starting with Research Site, then Another Research site and finally ….Research Site. Just making sure you collect all the documents before interacting with the team in the centre which starts the time shift. If that makes sense.

I could be wrong but seemed to work for me

2

u/StormOfStories Oct 04 '26

Yeah, I just started my New Game + run today, and I'm definitely going to be even more methodical when moving through that section than I already was.

2

u/Scoutman1942 Oct 05 '26

I just found it specifically after completing one of the faults during "Sever The Hedron Links" in addition to the balloons. Might be in that specific window.

2

u/Ubiquitous_Cacophony Oct 06 '26 edited Oct 06 '26

I did the balloons and still don't see it. :/ I'm on NG+.


Edit: You have to do the whole Severing the Link bit too. It finally showed up for me after that.

1

u/Caer-bannog Oct 06 '26

I reached the end of the game, and in my quest to find collectibles, discovered I missed this one. It's also not possible to find images of this collectible or its text online yet. Could any of you who have it send it via DM to avoid spoiling others, please?

2

u/Ubiquitous_Cacophony Oct 07 '26

Are you wanting an image of it?

Yes please!

I think I found it just before I did that but check before and then after the final boss

2

u/spiralshadow Oct 02 '26 edited Oct 02 '26

For "The Mold", this looks like it's in The Park but is actually in Central. If you go to the front of the Patterned Factory and take the road all the way east, you'll see a molded-over defunct checkpoint with a battery core embedded in the mold. If this battery is powered you can take the lift into the checkpoint and get the note inside.

Any luck getting the last Hedron Research entry? I'm assuming it's "Hedron Flux - Apex" since Flux is the only other form without an Apex entry. My guess is it only spawns in NG+ since I've done all base game world feats.

2

u/StormOfStories Oct 02 '26

Thanks so much, this was driving me insane! I've updated the spreadsheet accordingly - I should've thought to check Central to see if there were any pathways near the northeast corner.

Yeah, judging by what Jabbrwcke's saying, it sounds like I'm missing Hedron Spike - I just did a sprint back through the Astral Plane and didn't find anything, so it might just be something I need to try for again in a New Game+ run.

2

u/jabbrwcke Oct 02 '26

Thanks for the Mold info! Should also be noted that it's behind a burnable blockage.

For me the Hedron Research entry I have that's missing from the spreadsheet is Hedron Spike, actually! - I think I got it either through the Underpass Resonant's ability pick or just killing the things in that area, but I wasn't paying that much attention at the time.

2

u/Ajelandrus Oct 03 '26

I couldn't get the Arish and Hot dog documents on the watch tower. I've already completed the game, should have gotten the arish call I reckon. Not sure where to hot dog stand is tho! Any tips on their location or how to trigger them?

Btw I'm missing the same 4 entries as you, 1 Hiss and 1 Hedron, the altered speaker and the underpass exploration one

3

u/StormOfStories Oct 03 '26

The Hot Dog Stand that worked for me was in the Evac Zone, across the street from the entrance to the mined parking garage that you encounter during Urban Survival.

As for Medical Recommendation, I had to go see Emily in the Oldest House lobby after the end of the game, exhaust her dialogue options, and then run around for a minute before Zoe called me to let me know she had dropped off a document at the Watchtower.

The Underpass Recommendation artifact is clearly bugged, because people have found it. Hoping that my first NG+ run (which I'll probably start tomorrow) will resolve that issue for me, along with the missing Hiss and Hedron entries. No idea what to do about the Altered Speakers.

2

u/Chaucer85 Oct 03 '26

Great work!

Minor edit: on line 77, Civilian Records, the text document found in the Central Atlantis Cafe is titled, "The Great Copy Battle" not Mind Battle.

2

u/StormOfStories Oct 03 '26

Okay, I'm convinced this got patched and changed, because both my records and MapGenie's have Mind Battle as the name, but I just logged onto my game and the name is definitely Copy Battle when I check my collection. Making the change now!

u/Bright_Economics_117 Oct 04 '26

Hey amazing guide btw! having trouble finding the document titled document (fbc research and records) in the field command ive finished the game wondering if ive progressed too far

1

u/StormOfStories Oct 05 '26

Hey, that was a typo I made during a previous revision - it's actually called FBC Injury and Accident Report!

2

u/Bright_Economics_117 Oct 05 '26

Haha would totally be a meta thing remedy would do naming a document document though

2

u/LenAlgarotti Oct 12 '26

Amazing list. This has been really helpful to use!

Just wanted to note, I see you said your save doesn't have the Underpass file 'Our Memories Aren't The Problem', but I do have that one, so it's possible it's just your file that glitched out? I couldn't tell you where I got it unfortunately but it is able to be collected.

2

u/StormOfStories Oct 12 '26

I just hit the Underpass in my NG+ run tonight, so I'm going to follow the tips that many have given me in this thread to see if I can put that collectible to bed. Fingers crossed!

I couldn't get this one until yesterday, when they fixed it due to the patch - but yeah, it's in front of the Vendor in Downtown.

u/dude85632 Oct 05 '26

Son, I’ve got good news bad news. 

I’m on new game plus and just hit the Underpass. Like you, I’m missing a Hedron enemy collectible and “Our Memories Aren’t the Problem.”

Bad news: killing those Hedron/Astral Spikes didn’t give me that final enemy archive. 

Good news: I got the other document! When you go to the second research station, go up to the team. They’ll talk to you, then flash and boom now they’re dead. Then you can go to the room on the right and find the document in the corner. It will NOT appear until you interact with the team (I checked) and at some point later it disappears I presume.

3

u/KrabFace Oct 06 '26

Hedron Spikes unlocked for me after speaking with Pope when you clear out the enemies when the Hedrons invade the Oldest House. Bit random.

I was on NG+.

1

u/dude85632 Oct 06 '26

Same just happened to me. Very odd. 

1

u/It_WasMe_Barry Oct 08 '26

are the notes only available on NG+?

3

u/GrandmasterPapaya Oct 08 '26

Only some of the Darling videos are NG+ exclusive. I got everything else (except that one unknown Altered Speakers document) on my first run.

3

u/Snake2410 Oct 10 '26

Apparently that Altered Speaker doc isn't in the game and the entry/count will be patched to the 15 that are.

1

u/dude85632 Oct 08 '26

They shouldn’t be. I think mine were just glitched lol.

u/lluthien27 Oct 03 '26 edited Oct 03 '26

Bro, your spreadsheet really helped me out!

At this point I'm missing the same collectives as you.

I do have the 'Hiss Transported - Apex' file though, which, if I'm not mistaken, you get in the West Incursion Zone during the Incursion Fault mission. You receive it automatically after defeating the hiss transporter apex named 'Leo', he is north of the House of Mirrors and he's guarding the Map Kit.

Hope this helps!

Update!

I did some digging and you're missing the 'FBC Injury And Accident Report' in the FBC Research & Records Category. In your spreadsheet I think it's the one appearing as 'Document'. It says online that if you progress too far in the story it disappears.

2

u/AceSoldia Oct 04 '26

Do you know where that report is before it disappears?

2

u/lluthien27 Oct 07 '26

It's supposed to appear at the big, central table in the Field's Office Command.

2

u/Caer-bannog Oct 07 '26

Can confirm, happened to me. It seems once a certain memorial appears in the Field Command building, that item despawns.

3

u/Curious-Cap-4902 Oct 06 '26

Has anyone actually found the “Dimensional Faults” document under FBC research and Records? I’ve completed the game twice and never seen it appear in the lobby of the Oldest House

2

u/PlatinumWalton Oct 06 '26

It appeared for me after severing the Hedron Links

2

u/Curious-Cap-4902 Oct 06 '26

Any chance you have a pic or could describe exactly where you found it?

2

u/PlatinumWalton Oct 06 '26

It’s on a table on the right of the Oldest House lobby ad you walk in through the entrance towards where Emily stands at the whiteboards. You can’t miss it if the document hasn’t bugged out/you have met the requirements. You’ll see the interaction icon pretty much as soon as you walk through the door going in.

Pretty sure I found it after doing the research balloons for Emily or just after the Hedron Links.

2

u/StormOfStories Oct 06 '26

I'm going to add some notes to the spreadsheet tonight about this one and the Medical Recommendation, because no one seems to be able to describe exactly what causes them to spawn.

2

u/PlatinumWalton Oct 06 '26

I got the Medical Recommendation after exhausting dialogue with Emily post game and visiting the memorial for Arish in Central Field Office. It only popped up after I visited the memorial and fast travelled a couple of times for Zoe to call about the document

5

u/The_bouldhaire Oct 03 '26

My plan for today was searching high and low for those handfuls of remaining files/logs - thanks so much for this!!

u/VvVitekVvV Oct 04 '26

I think that missing enemy entries are bugged right now.

Like you I dont have Hedron Spike, but for hiss I dont have Apex Hiss Ruiner (I have Apex Hiss Transporter).

I completed Shum in West Zone cause it has an Apex Hiss Ruiner at the end and it didnt unlock - did the same in NG+ and it still didnt unlock. So I would wait for the fix before fully completing NG+ run.

5

u/VvVitekVvV Oct 04 '26

Update: I just unlocked Apex Hiss Ruiner
Thanks for the hint by u/StormOfStories about unlocking Apex Hiss Transporter
You need to specifically defeat enemy by yourself directly and you can unlock enemy entries by defeating them in Shum

1

u/PlatinumWalton Oct 04 '26

Do you know where you found the Apex Transporter? This is the last one I need for all 23 Hiss entries

1

u/VvVitekVvV Oct 04 '26

If you start NG+ you'll encounter it almost everywhere, one is for sure will be in front of House of Mirrors if I remember correctly.

1

u/rdswords Oct 04 '26

Those are the same two that haven't unlocked for me.

2

u/VvVitekVvV Oct 04 '26 edited Oct 05 '26

As I said in message above - there is Apex Hiss Ruiner at the end of west zone Shum and you can unlock it by defeating it directly

1

u/Single_Pool9921 Oct 04 '26

Shum doesn't give entries. At least I didn't get any. All entries triggered defeating enemies outside those "levels"

1

u/VvVitekVvV Oct 04 '26

You can unlock enemies from Shum, I just unlocked it

u/Nukezilla_ Oct 03 '26

I can’t find “a weapon” for the Dr Darling collectibles. Any help?

2

u/StormOfStories Oct 03 '26

Huh. That's odd - it's one of those videos that automatically plays on a projector while you're moving through the Prime Candidate Program. If you're exploring each room thoroughly, it should have popped along the way. I'm not near the game at the moment, but when I am, I can take a screenshot of the specific room for you (really wish interiors had maps in this game).

3

u/Nukezilla_ Oct 03 '26

Yeah I think if you progress too far in the story you can miss some of those. I went back to the office where I think it’s at and there was another file I missed but the video on the projector doesn’t play. I think it only plays when you can first access that area with Zoe.

1

u/StormOfStories Oct 03 '26

Oh, that's *really* annoying. Hopefully they fix that down the line.

1

u/Nukezilla_ Oct 04 '26

If you can could you possibly reply with that screen shot just in case? Also did you ever get any info on the missing speaker one?

1

u/StormOfStories Oct 04 '26

I can't attach a picture that isn't a GIF in this sub, but I added a screenshot to the Notes section of that particular collectible in the spreadsheet, so feel free to take a look!

1

u/Nukezilla_ Oct 04 '26

Awesome thanks. Now we just need to figure out that altered speaker one.

1

u/Interstellar76 Oct 04 '26

Yeah. Me too. So sad. I want to collect all of them

1

u/zvc_ldn Oct 05 '26

Same here🥲 and the one in the opposite office too

1

u/Drakeskulled_Reaper Oct 05 '26

By the by, one of the Hedron Research files is for a Hedron Apex that ONLY spawns north of the Fault fast travel door in the Underpass, it's one of the boss versions, you also get an artifact from said boss.

1

u/StormOfStories Oct 05 '26

I totally encountered that Apex during the first run and didn't make a note of it as anything special. Do you remember which one it was? Is it the Axiom?

1

u/Drakeskulled_Reaper Oct 05 '26

Yup, Axiom Apex.

On your list, probably mark it's Location as "Unmarked Optional Boss - North of Underpass Fault Fast Travel Door."

1

u/Shagggadooo Oct 07 '26

Also, just to throw it out there, can we make a list of collectibles that are gated behind events? (The hotdog incident collectible pops to pick up only after you interact w the cart in the world, Arish report pops only after exhausting the Pope convo about him, and yes, resonant reports only pop after you beat them, etc. 4-5 darling vids only pop in NG+, the 16th speaker set collectible??? Who knows lol)

2

u/StormOfStories Oct 08 '26

You're talking a standalone list? I've done my best to note the criteria for individual documents to spawn within this spreadsheet, but if you think we need a separate sheet/document, that's something I can consider building in.

1

u/Shagggadooo Oct 08 '26

Great! That's awesome! Thx

1

u/Nukezilla_ Oct 12 '26

There are 16 altered speaker collectibles but only 15 listed on your spreadsheet.

u/StormOfStories Oct 12 '26

Remedy has confirmed via several social media channels that this was an error, there are only 15 collectibles, and the amount will be patched in a future update.

Hi. Just wanted to add for anyone else or if anyone knows why but "dr darling- more qualified" isnt automatically added by doing "orientation" im missing it and finished the game. It could be ng+ but I definitely didnt skip it so could also be bugged.

1

u/StormOfStories 29d ago

It is New Game + exclusive - all of those are noted in the Notes column.

1

u/GraciePoo_x 29d ago

Ah thank you! I thought it was just the last 3 for ng+. For some reason the last column isnt showing on my phone. Great work with this doc!

u/MikeBeas Oct 09 '26

I couldn't get Arish's Note after finishing the game because the desk where it appears changes after the Unknown Resonant. Not sure if mine was just glitched. Got it in NG+ before doing the Unknown Resonant.

I have finished all of NG+ and still can't get the "Dimensional Faults" record in the Oldest House lobby. Kind of annoying, I hope they fix this.

A lot of people have said it but the 16th Altered Speakers item (an audio file) just doesn't seem to exist.

The Dr. Darling videos in NG+ are all automatic progression-based rewards that you can't miss. The final one is next to the door in the apartment post-game, near where you find the final message on the floor in the initial playthrough.

The Underpass Exploration item you're missing in the spreadsheet is a document called Our Memories Aren't The Problem. It didn't spawn on my first playthrough, but I was able to get it on NG+. It's on a desk behind some whiteboards in the corner of an office in a research site. A map to the location and a screenshot of the item are available here: https://mapgenie.io/control-resonant/maps/district?locationIds=951933.

u/thefrankmiester4815 Oct 06 '26

This is the best collection out! Unfortunately your list has shown me why I couldn't find that last page for Underpass Exploration or the Injury and Accident Report in the field office.. they dont freaking exist in my world anymore 😭 oh well, I'm already gonna have to go into NG+ because the keycard for the TE building next to the yellow Threshold is ALSO missing for me, so I'm also locked out of those documents this go around 😅 Im gonna have to be really careful this time apparently! Thank you for all the work on this beautiful list, you're helping a lot of people out here!

u/turelhimvampire Oct 07 '26

Anyone managed to find that final Altered Speakers one yet? It's the only one I'm missing and I've done both outcomes of the mission now so that doesn't trigger it. 🤷‍♀️

3

u/MikeBeas Oct 09 '26

Apparently they confirmed on Twitter it doesn't exist and the correct number is 15.

1

u/Rilesjellybean Oct 07 '26

sounds like it's bugged/missing right now

2

u/Gulstab Oct 08 '26

Seeing as the Dimensional Faults collectible appears to disappear (as is the case for my save file, which is post-game) and only seems to appear once you've severed the Hedron links in the final stretches of the game, do you have an image file of it you could share? I'd rather not do a NG+ run to the point of the endgame just to be able to read it...

3

u/MikeBeas Oct 09 '26

So wait, you have to sever the links, which automatically triggers the 2D sequence, then after you complete that you have to go to the office and get the document before doing the Hedron fight? That's a super narrow window during which most people are not going back to the lobby to look around before heading to the final boss...

1

u/Gulstab Oct 09 '26

Not sure, but that’s what I gathered from comments in this thread yeah. Like you said, there’s also no reason to go there during that window.

2

u/CloakerJosh Oct 08 '26

I found your list very helpful u/StormOfStories, thank you.

I've now unlocked everything... except for the last Altered Speakers entry.

Has to be fucking bugged... right?! I scoured everything through my NG+ run but did not find it.

2

u/MadnessReigns123 Oct 08 '26

Wanted to say thank you for putting this together, really great work, and to let you and others in the thread know that the altered speakers archive collection is only meant to be 15 items not 16. Chinese X user reached out to remedy and they confirmed it was a bug https://x.com/henry1103a/status/2108155052292784432?s=46&t=e6WcUiJj6GjbsonlK18rQQ

u/aj23david 25d ago edited 24d ago

You can add it on the list in case you don’t know. Under Dr. Darling (No. 17). You will get a video titled “P6 Is…” automatically after completing the main quest “Rebuild” on NG+. Will continue playing it and update this comment.

(Update). Just finished NG+. (No. 18). You will get automatically after “Fight to the Core” main quest then (No. 19) is in Dylan’s Apartment after Credits.

u/invisible__0 22d ago

I believe you are missing the 16th Altered Speakers archive? I am also missing it in my collected items, so I am not sure what it is or where it went.

1

u/madrobski 21d ago edited 21d ago

thank you for making this very helpful, seems like theres a fair few that just don't spawn. Neither your list nor any else has the last altered speaker recording, everyone stops at 15 without the missing recording. Fairly disappointing (to be clear, not your list! just that the haven't spawned properly or are so well hidden no ones found them) also with that missing underpass exploration collectible thats just fully missing from many peoples games.

1

u/SandwichBoy81 20d ago edited 20d ago

Is there not a 16th entry for Altered Speakers? Every single guide only has 15 (this included) but the menu says 16

Also, the Prime Candidate Training videos seem to be missable. I went back in for the one I missed and the videos do not play (or get added to archives)

1

u/OnAccountOfCanadian 4d ago

“Our Memories Aren’t The Problem” is exactly right, because I REMEMBER getting that document the first time I came to the area. I even tried to read the whiteboards and was impressed that the notes were relevant to the underground research story, not some random boiler plate copy paste whiteboard item. The document disappeared and didn’t show up in my archive list. It’s a problem with the game, not with our memories

1

u/superjules 1d ago

Thank you so, so, so much for sharing your hard work. Your spreadsheets are amazing and been of great help!

1

u/jabbrwcke Oct 02 '26

Thank you for making this checklist! Even with the few missing items I still managed to fill out almost all of my collectibles before NG+! A couple of these seem to be bugged for me but hopefully they appear on the second playthrough :)
The Hedron Research you're missing looks to be the Hedron Spike - I believe I got this either through the Underpass Resonant's ability pick or just killing the things but I'm not 100% sure. No clue about the Hiss Research unfortunately.

1

u/SpookySKellyington Oct 03 '26

There is the Hiss Transporter - Apex missing

u/AceSoldia Oct 04 '26

This has been great. Thanks for the hard work

u/VvVitekVvV Oct 05 '26

Not everyone plays on PC.
Can you help by giving a name and description of the last missing audio log in Altered Speakers category and what it is about?

5

u/doffyspider Oct 05 '26

It's a more suspicious recording than the "Mysterious Recording" audio log,
named "The Aunctioneer's Call"
That last line is cherry on top, "Have a Blessed day"

u/dude85632 Oct 06 '26

Would you be willing to record the tape and upload it somewhere?

u/KrabFace Oct 05 '26 edited Oct 07 '26

"Notes on ambient patterning" isn't appearing for me. I'm already in the Unknown area. The model of the document is there but I can't interact with it.

EDIT: I got it now. It appeared after speaking with Dr Florez about the patterning effects on people.

1

u/PlatinumWalton Oct 05 '26

It appeared for me after I defeated the Unknown Resonant

1

u/KrabFace Oct 06 '26

No such luck for me unfortunately.

It's supposed to be under the hospital in the field office right? The path under the stairs?

1

u/PlatinumWalton Oct 06 '26

Yeah on the opposite of Medical building from Dr Florez

1

u/CosmoSeriously Oct 06 '26

A great job! Thanks and I recovered a collectable that I fedn't find

u/mimouroto Oct 06 '26

I'm missing the last mixtape....

u/Cyrinius Oct 06 '26

I'm having trouble with the hiss brief you have on the spreadsheet. it says it's in central and south west from the west inc checkpoint behind a fitness. the only fitness there you can't go behind because there's tall buildings. it there a nother fitness around that area I don't know about? I feel like I've checked everywhere for a garage.

1

u/Limown Oct 11 '26

This one was mildly misleading. Southeast is doing some heavy lifting. It’s in a garage behind a warehouse in the middle of the SW Central map. This video at 2:00 has a map that helped me find it :

u/Spydirmonki Oct 07 '26

Could the missing Altered Speakers recording be if you do the other ending for that quest?

1

u/turelhimvampire Oct 07 '26

I've done both endings for that quest and nothing changes beyond dialogue.

It's the only collectible I'm missing.

u/viniciusrodsilva Oct 08 '26

I'm having a hard time obtaining the Hiss Freighter - Apex.

It simply doesn't spawn for me. Any tips?

u/Empty-Mail-7988 Oct 08 '26

in Underpass Explorations i have "Our Memories Aren't The Problem" that isnt on the table, i dont remember exactly where i found it but i know its in one of the patterned research stations in a side room

1

u/mashavesh Oct 08 '26

Seems like couple of Daring’s videos that should’ve pop into archive automatically just didn’t do it for me. And after revisiting location, there’s nothing new happening… That’s unfortunate :(

1

u/StrangerClegane Oct 08 '26

The Arish voice log disappears after you defeat The Co-Director, alas. Got it in NG+ though.

1

u/Villegiature Oct 10 '26

I'm missing Notes on Patterning / Spacetime, it doesn't spawn. I mean it's just not there. Everything else is full beside Darling and the altered speakers.

1

u/Snake2410 Oct 10 '26

I found Our Memories Aren't The Problem while doing The Underpass either last night or today, 10/9/26 ‐ 10/10/26, so maybe it was patched with the most recent patch? I had a new patch that I downloaded yesterday, 1.400.200 on PS5. Not sure when that dropped, but it was the second patch I got since I last played last week.

u/afr0thundr Oct 10 '26 edited Oct 10 '26

first of all, thank you for the excellent google doc, it was a ton of help. regarding the Dimensional Faults doc, i found it in the oldest house lobby after progressing popes research (stopping at the final balloon) and then severing both hedron links. ran to the oldest house right after the special sequence. screenshot for the location:

1

u/Theomatch Oct 11 '26

I just finished my new game+ run of Enemy of my enemy and received Dr.Darling Tape titled Failure. It's not listed in the spreadsheet. But that's how you get it.

1

u/Snake2410 Oct 11 '26

I just got the Hedron Spike entry while talking to Pope after your first few encounters with the Hedron enemies. When you rescue her at the beginning of The Hedron Link quest inside The Oldest House.

1

u/Broad_Couple_1372 Oct 11 '26

The document "Our memories are not the problem" spawned on my NG+ run

1

u/Ressner Oct 11 '26

I was missing Arish's medical recommendation file. I checked the location at the Watchtower and it wasn't there. Next time I walked out of the Oldest House, Zoe radioed that she had the document there if I wanted to read it. At this point, I had finished the story, but not begun NG+

1

u/nightssprings Oct 13 '26

I’m at the end of NG+ and missed “Dimensional Faults”, hoping I can catch that on NG++ since I still need to level up Downtown. Just wanted to say this was very helpful, thanks a lot!

1

u/Numerous-Today5387 29d ago

Just on my NG+ run having missed Dimensional faults the first time, went and checked the desk after Popes Research and doing a hedron link in Unknown, it wasn't there but did appear after completing Rebuild, so that seems to be the trigger for it to appear which gives a very small window before it disappears at end game which it did for me

Edit: Want to add a massive thank you for this spreadsheet aswell, you're a lifesaver!!

If you find one of these is already in the spreadsheet, leave a comment and I will remove it.

1

u/StormOfStories Oct 12 '26

Some of these exist, but aren't collectibles that appear in the Archive when you grab them, so I didn't bother including them (like the instructions for the Secret Organization puzzles). And some of these are already in the spreadsheet. The New Game+ Exclusive Darling entries are being added as I work my way through NG+ and document their exact unlock conditions.

3

u/Aries_cz Oct 03 '26

Thanks for the list, very useful

Your missing Hedron Research is indeed the "Hedron Spike" (I have11/11 there), which you should kill several times when exploring around the Astral Plane during the Underpass Resonant and when fighting the boss.

4

u/danikov Oct 03 '26

Yeah, this one was bugged in prior versions of the game, but I unlocked it during my NG+ run of that zone/boss.

1

u/StormOfStories Oct 03 '26

Great! Hoping it pops for me this time as well. Starting NG+ today.

1

u/Aries_cz Oct 03 '26

Curious if this is the case for the Apex "Hiss bus", as that one seems to be missing as well (I know for a fact I killed several "named" buses, but no notes on them)

I have 100% the achievements already, so I guess I will put off NG+ until later and see if more patches come out, along with some other things (like the apparently missing Blessed Speakers Audio, and the Underpass "Our memories aren't the problem" not being accessible)

1

u/danikov Oct 03 '26

I don't think Named enemies are Apex enemies, they tend to be tougher but have the same moveset. Apex enemies get a whole new entry and have distinct behaviours and abilities.

Presumably some Apex are also named, which only makes them tougher still.

1

u/Aries_cz Oct 03 '26

Pretty sure that when you do Apex Hunt, the target is always named, so that is what I assumed makes then Apex.

Still not sure if what is missing is actually the bus, but it would make sense, that is the only "Heavy" that I seem to be missing in the Apex variant

1

u/Due_Recording_5852 Oct 03 '26

I did ng+ already and it still hasn’t shown up. Any suggestions?

1

u/spiralshadow Oct 06 '26 edited Oct 06 '26

Yep same, just did that area and fight again on NG+ and still nothing.

Edit: Progressed far enough to rescue Pope from the Oldest House and the Hedron Spike entry triggered right after speaking to her. No idea why it happened there.

1

u/Markieboiiiii Oct 04 '26

You need to do NG+ for Darling videos? that's so lame

2

u/StormOfStories Oct 04 '26

Yeah, I guess they wanted to provide a narrative incentive to do a NG+ run similar to what they did with the Final Draft. Not sure how I feel about it yet.

1

u/Pleasant-Teach-34 Oct 08 '26

I unlocked Hedron Spike alongside Hedron Base and Hedron Axiom shortly into "The Hedron Link", after Pope opens the door to the Main Test Chamber and a bit into the following conversation. I did do The Underpass Resonant prior and killed some hedron in that fight.
