How to Find Lunchboxes?

1. Acquire a Metal Detector

To find the comics in Atomfall, you must first find a metal detector.

Trade for a Metal Detector

You can trade Reg Stansfield, a trader who can be found inside the Slate Mines Caves at grid reference 29.0E, 71.1N, for a metal detector.

Loot a Metal Detector

Alternatively, you can loot a metal detector from a corpse in the middle of a lake filled with swarms of leeches. You’ll need to reach this corpse fast as the leeches will jump out of the water and start damaging you!

2. Use the Metal Detector

Once you have a metal detector in your inventory, you’ll need to look for the metal detector to appear on the bottom left of your screen. This will inform you that a cache or lunchbox is nearby.

Head to the locations below then press the left trigger button when you see the icon pop up. This will cause red buttons to start lighting up on the metal detector. Your goal is to keep the red button in the middle as you walk around. To keep it in the middle, you’ll need to turn either left or right. When all the buttons light up red, stop and press the right trigger to dig up the item!
