Santa Barbara has four sections (or subchapters): 2425 Constance, Pushing Inland, The Resort, and The Beach, but you won’t see those names during the campaign. You can find and begin playing from these sections in the Chapters section of the main menu. Each subchapter gets a section in our guide, and we’ll explain where and when they begin and end below.

Suicide Note Artifact location

Walk to the house behind and to the left of the RV with the Rattler graffiti on it. Jump through the window and head toward the back of the house. In the center of the house, you’ll find the bathroom door open and a corpse in the bathtub. On the toilet seat, find a suicide note artifact. (You can’t check your collectibles during this section, so this artifact does not have an official name).

Rattler Journal Entry location

After the first fight with Rattlers, look for a teal van with tires half buried in the sand. It will be over near the building that looks like a gas station at a diagonal from both areas. There’s a Rattler tag on the side. Inspect it and Ellie will write the Rattler Journal Entry.

Santa Barbara Slave Note Artifact location

After Ellie says “that looks like a tall, round building” and slips off the train, head to the left past some white and black graffiti that reads “PTS.” Look for a few pallets with barrels stacked on top and you’ll find the Santa Barbara Slave Note Artifact to their left.
