Looking to unlock all 9 hot springs in Death Stranding 2? This guide covers how to access them, where to dig, and what you’ll need—like the Hot Spring Digger. From earning trophies to soaking under the stars, here’s everything you need to know to find every spring across Australia. No hot springs exist in Mexico.
Unlocking Hot Springs in Death Stranding 2
There are 9 hot springs in Australia. The first two unlock naturally, but you’ll need a PCC Lv. 2/3 to dig the rest using a Hot Spring Digger.
Unlock it by visiting the Miracle Spring near “The Motherhood,” placing the bucket on Sam’s head, and talking to the Hydrologist at Heartman’s Lab. Dig your first spring to earn the Spring into Life trophy.
Want the “Written in the Stars” trophy? Soak in a spring at night under clear skies and hold L1 to stargaze. Best spots: Miracle Spring or Healing Spring. Sleep at DHV Magellan to fast-forward time or clear the weather.
