Cronos: The New Dawn: Valuable Locations & Interactive Tracking Guide

In the resource-depleted world of Cronos: The New Dawn, Valuables are your primary ticket to high-end weapon modifications. These are relics of the past—cameras, heaters, and electronics—serve no purpose for survival other than being sold at Workstations for large sums of Energy.

While there are 35 Valuables hidden throughout the game, finding them requires a keen eye for detail and a willingness to explore dangerous optional rooms.

Energy is the currency required to improve your arsenal. Without it, your weapons will remain underpowered against the increasing "Unmerged" threat. Here is why you need Valuables:

• Selling 15 Valuables will unlock "The Contribution" trophy/achievement.
• High-tier weapon upgrades for the Hammer or Javelin can cost thousands of Energy. A single Fan Heater can often fund an entire upgrade tier.

Valuables occupy a standard inventory slot. Because space is limited, you should sell them at the first Workstation you encounter or stash them in a Global Storage Box to save room for ammo and healing patches.

To get the most out of every scavenger hunt, you should optimize how and when you sell your items:

• If you have extracted the Lidia Marzec Essence from her Fallen Traveler location, make sure it is equipped in your Phylactery before selling. It provides a 10% Energy bonus on all valuable sales.
• Unlike other survival games with fluctuating markets, Valuables in Cronos have fixed prices. A Camera will always grant 800 Energy, an Energy Bank 1,000, and a Fan Heater 2,000.
• Valuables are often found in lockers, behind breakable glass, or inside apartments that require the Bolt Cutters to access.

Finding every single item is the best way to make sure you can fully upgrade your favorite weapons before the final boss. Every Valuable in the game has been marked on our Cronos maps and listed in the following table.
