    Hey everybody! In this video I'll be showing you all of the file locations in the Evil Within 2. The name of the file, number of the file, and location of the file will all be included in the corner of the screen as each location is being shown. If there is anyway I can improve or you down voted please let me know! Happy hunting!

    Note: You'll need to have completed the two anima events that can be triggered prior to file 33 and 34 in order to get these two files. These can be accessed by picking up a Woman's Diary in chapter 3 (File 10), and walking into Juke's Diner (Chapter 7) and activating the residual memory, then interacting with the jukebox.

    A DEAD B0DY MANGlitched for me. **Warning.
    The first time I picked up the 20th file, no achievement.. went on to the 21st file, no achievement.... I decided to reload an old save and try again rather than wait 24hrs or play on and get em all and have an issue then... Played back from when I had 17/40 files. Picking up the 20th file the second time, the achievement popped immediately. 😊. Not sure what's up but of something doesn't pop or register or even an object isn't there you may need to reload.
