How to unlock the Black Market achievement in Prey - Definitive Guide

Late into the game you can find a transistor in the Arboretum Lobby on a women named "Lilly Morris". She will talk about dead drop locations which are located all over Talos I with the first being right behind her in the form of a Red Bell which you need to whack with your Wrench.

The second one can be found in the Crew Quarters Fitness Center to the right when you walk through the doors.

The third one can be found in the Talos I Lobby Museum across from the painting of President JFK.

The fourth one is found to the left of the Talos I Lobby bathroom above the chairs.

The fifth one is found in the Hardware Labs on the catwalk to the right of the giant statue. Calvino's Lab is below this area.

The final one is found in the Cargo Bay where the survivors have taken residence.

This did not unlock for me when I opened the last safe. It finally popped when I traveled to another area.

In case anyone is like me (stupid), make sure you look for the bells with the red light. 😅😅😅

Prey has 6 Smuggler’s Dead Drop Locations for the “Black Market” trophy / achievement. Finding all dead drops is part of side quest “Talos Smuggling Ring”.

They are safes hanging on walls, with a red circle on them and a red light above them. The Talos Smuggling Ring side mission starts by listening to the TransCribe of Lily Morris, found in the lobby of the Arboretum (the hallway leading to the Main Lift).

You need to hit if with your wrench 3 times to open the safe, and I recommend to take at least one item from the safe to make sure it counted. The game usually auto saves when you open one as well.

After completing the Cargo Bay area of the Main Story you can free roam in all areas of Talos I and go back to find missing collectibles. You can also collect them while going through the story, it’s up to you.

You need to hit them with your wrench to expose the safe, and maybe access the safe for this to count, I would assume.

I found all of the drops before listening to the transcribe. Didn’t pop. Even after listening to it. I am assuming that is why

Once you've entered the Arboretum, you will find a body with a transcribe near the lift. This will give you an sidequest to find a series of dead drops with smuggled goods in them. Each one is hidden behind a red alarm bell. There are many, many of these in the game, but the ones you are looking for have a bright red bulb above it. You may need to use the GLOO Cannon to get up to it. Hit the bell with your wrench three times and it will open up. Find all six for the achievement.

  1. Arboretum - Above the body where you start the quest.
  2. Lobby - In the museum across from the painting of JFK.
  3. Lobby - In the hallway left of the bathrooms, above the couch.
  4. Hardware Labs - On the catwalk in the Atrium behind the large statue.
  5. Crew Quarters - In the Fitness Center, in the hallway to the pool.
  6. Cargo Bay - In the room where the survivors are stockpiling their food.
