How to Find Hot Springs in Death Stranding 2

Where to Find Hot Springs in Death Stranding 2

In the thrilling world of Death Stranding 2, I discover that a total of 9 rejuvenating Hot Springs lie in wait. However, before I can immerse myself in these blissful pools, I must first complete two crucial tasks. Firstly, I need to connect Heartman’s Lab to the Chiral Network via Main Order 23 using my Dowser, and secondly, I should link the Motherhood with Main Order 26 from the Data Scientist. Once these facilities are online, I should make my way to the serene surroundings of the Motherhood. Here, I’ll find a soothing pool of warm water just outside. Interacting with this water is simple; I just need to stand within it and press the Square button. This will cause Sam to strip down and enjoy a refreshing bath in the Hot Spring. It’s important to note that if I choose to partake in this relaxing ritual after 8 PM (in-game time), the enigmatic Dollman will serenade me with Cha Kato’s soulful melody, “Ii Yu Da Na”. The adventure doesn’t stop there, as progressing through the Hot Spring could earn me not one, but two exciting trophies. Let me share more about these trophies in a moment!

How to Get the Spring Into Life Trophy in Death Stranding 2

Dig a Hot Spring for the First Time in Death Stranding 2

In Death Stranding 2, the Spring into Life trophy is earned when players discover their first hot spring and take a bath in it for the first time. However, this trophy can only be obtained after finding the initial hot spring. This hidden gem is located outside The Motherhood facility, which you’ll visit during Main Order 26 from the Data Scientist. When you’re inside the hot spring, press Square to bathe. After bathing, wait for a prompt that says “Put Bucket on Head.” When this appears, press Square again and place the bucket on Sam’s head. This will cause Sam to be pulled underwater and transported to Heartman’s Lab, where you’ll find the hot spring in question.

Starting from the Hot Spring, head towards the terminal situated outside its door. Engage in conversation with the Hydrologist at Heartman’s Lab you’ll find there. After your chat, you will gain access to the Hot Spring Digger Structure Data for PCC Level 2. With this new upgrade, explore the map and look for Aid Requests within the Options screen. You’re seeking a Hot Spring location northwest of Heartman’s Lab. Once found, travel there and deploy your PCC Lv2 to summon a Hot Spring Digger. This action will create a fresh Hot Spring for you to utilize, and grant you the “Spring into Life” trophy for Death Stranding 2. Don’t forget to return to Heartman’s Lab to inform the Hydrologist about your discovery and receive a reward!

Study the Night Sky for the First Time in Death Stranding 2

The “Written in the Stars” trophy can be earned exclusively during clear, nighttime skies. If it’s cloudy or raining, feel free to take a break and rest until the conditions are right. Once you find yourself under a clear night sky, head into any Hot Spring. Inside the Hot Spring, press L1 to switch to first-person view. In this perspective, players can observe the night sky and its unique constellations. Different Hot Springs showcase different star patterns, with some players spotting “Lou” among them, while others might catch a glimpse of Hideo Kojima himself. When a player focuses on a particular constellation, an image will eventually appear, granting the “Written in the Stars” trophy.
