ThroughoutThe Last of Us Part I, players will be able to collect various types of items to provide context to the world. Items such as Firefly pendants are found scattered across the different locations Joel and Ellie travel to, indicating how far the Firefly organization spread and how many they’ve lost over the years.
Other items can also be picked up, such as notes left behind by strangers, maps that have been marked up, and notices from a time that feels long forgotten. These artifacts often provide brief insights into other people’s stories, how they survived, and the ways in which the world has changed over the last two decadessince the outbreak. Here is where players can find the artifacts in the second chapter of the game, the Quarantine Zone.
