Finding every hidden collectible in The Precinct can feel tricky, especially if you want to unlock them all without missing any. This guide for all 20 artifact safebox locations and codes will help you find every artifact and open each safebox with the right code. You will not need to guess or search for clues on your own.
Artifacts in The Precinct are special items hidden in safeboxes across the city. Each safebox has a code you need to enter to unlock it. Most codes are hidden nearby as clues, usually on sticky notes or walls. Some safeboxes are on rooftops, and others are in alleys or behind buildings. The first artifact is part of the tutorial and does not need a code.
