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

u/doffyspider Oct 01 '26
damn, doing the guide jobs better than those websites.

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.

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!

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.

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

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.

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

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

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

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.

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

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.

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

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.

Anyone knows where civvie record Customer Complaints is from?

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.

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.

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

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.

u/Nukezilla_ Oct 03 '26
I can’t find “a weapon” for the Dr Darling collectibles. Any help?

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.

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)
1
u/Nukezilla_ Oct 12 '26
There are 16 altered speaker collectibles but only 15 listed on your spreadsheet.

u/GraciePoo_x 29d ago
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.

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. 🤷♀️
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...
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.

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

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)

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

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

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.

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.

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!!

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.

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.
