The Last of Us 2: All Trading Cards Locations

Similar to Joel’s penchant for comic books in the first game, Ellie has a knack for collecting superhero trading cards in Naughty Dog’s newly released post-apocalyptic sequel, The Last Of Us 2. Basically, they are just a little paper cards with melodramatic descriptions of the superhero or villain they feature. As an aside, they also contain some amusing references to the game’s developers.

These items are found scattered throughout the storyline. While some can be easily found, others are concealed cleverly, and some even require you to solve puzzles. Plus, they are susceptible to being easily missed due to their tiny size. After scouring through the wide expanse of Seattle QZ, we have finally prepared the complete list of all the 48 trading cards in the game, complete with their locations.

Let’s head onto our guide without any further delay, and read how you can find these cards in The Last Of Us 2!

Waking Up Trading Cards

Trading Card 1 – Seismicalya (Jackson)

 

This one is surprisingly easy to go unnoticed if you are not alert enough. After you wake up, grab your gear and go through the streets of Jackson with Jesse, keep an eye out for the Main Street Gallery. You will see a notice board on the wooden wall there. Right in the corner is your very first trading card of Seismicalya.

Trading Card 2 – The Keen Twins (Jackson)

 

 

You will enter the Tipsy Bison Saloon soon after this. A cutscene will play out; after it is over, go to the back of the room. You will find the Keen Twins card on top of a barrel, near the dartboard.

Patrol Trading Cards

Trading Card 3 – Tesseractor (Patrol)

While patrolling around on horseback with Dina, you will eventually ride into an open area with some caravans and a handful of derelict houses. Explore them to grab some treasure, and then find the house with a car parked in front of it. Climb up the car and onto the awning, and then jump into the house. You will find the Tesseractor card on a bookshelf in there.

Trading Card 4 – Laurent Foucalt (Patrol)

When you go into the library to take shelter from the blizzard while patrolling, you get a chance to go through Eugene’s hiding place. Enter the back room and check out the storage cupboard on your left. On a desk in there is the fourth trading card for Laurent Foucault.
