There are a total of 10 letters to collect throughout the game. These collectibles will help fill in details on the fascist world of The Old Blood. The letters are usually scattered in well-hidden areas of each Chapter, so you'll need to keep your eyes peeled while exploring in order to track them all down. As an aid, make sure to refer to your in-game map (press ) as collectibles will be marked with a glowing question mark if you have unlocked the "Eagle Eye" perk. On top of this, the perk also makes collectibles visible on your HUD by indicating their location with a clear white circle if you are close by (much like how objectives are marked on the HUD by clear blue circles).
Below, you can find a text-based guide for the locations of these collectibles.
-
Prologue
- After surviving the research center ambush, Wesley will drop a ladder from the upper floor so that you can regroup. Climb the ladder and before heading left towards the objective, head into the office on your right and the letter can be found on the far end of the table.
-
Chapter 1
- Once BJ wakes up, face the prison door and you should notice a small crack in the wall towards the bottom right of the grate. Approach the crack in the wall and pick up the letter.
-
Chapter 3
- After exiting the kitchen area in Wolfenstein Keep, you will emerge in a narrow hallway with red carpet. Take the first door on your right and eliminate the soldier observing the bookshelf. If you turn around, you will find the letter on the ground near the fireplace.
-
Chapter 3
- After crawling through a small grate and entering what looks to be the castle's library, go ahead and take out every enemy soldier in the area. Once they have all been eliminated, head to the top floor of the library and go towards the door frame that leads out to the library's balcony. Near this door and against the wall, you'll find a showcase/shelf with three boxes; one of them is open and has a key. Grab that key and return to the northern area on the top floor, where you will see a portrait in between two animal skulls on the wall. Insert the key in the pedestal in front of this portrait to unlock a secret area beyond the wall. You will find the next letter inside the secret room.
-
Chapter 4
- After surviving the initial ambush inside the village town tavern, get ready to face off against Jäger. Once he's been dealt with, you will be in the tavern's cellar. In this area, head down the cave, then down the stairs, and hook a right. You'll be able to find a letter sitting on Kessler wooden table.
-
Chapter 5
- Once you find your way inside Agent Two's house, check her workstation. You'll be able to find the letter on the table in front of some radio equipment.
-
Chapter 5
- After equipping the kitchen apron and heading inside the Nazi tavern, proceed upstairs towards the objective. Once you're in Helga Von Schabbs' room, check the window sill near the bed and grab the letter before continuing on with the mission.
-
Chapter 6
- After BJ reaches the boathouse and creates his own sawed-off shotgun, check the boat Kessler was originally hiding in for this letter.
-
Chapter 7
- After lowering the drawbridge and making your way into the next area of town, hop out of the Laderoboter and make your way inside the building with the objective marker. Before pulling the lever in this building, grab the letter on the table to the left.
-
Chapter 8
- Once you regain control of BJ, head down into the graveyard and stick to your left. As you come down the hill, you'll spot a small command building with an open door. Head in here, take out the Commander, and then grab the final letter on the desk.
As a general reminder, you can always check your Chapter collectible progress at any time by pressing the back/view button and referring to the menu's collectible tab. Likewise, the game will automatically save any collectibles that you immediately pick up, so feel free to quit the Chapter once grab what you need if you are replaying a Chapter.
