Cold Darkness Awakened DLC - Archivist Map & Documents

These screenshots show the locations of the Archivist Map then the 8 documents. They are also marked on the annotated area map. Yes, these pictures are VERY DARK. So is the game. We've done our best to show the way, but finding the Archivist Map first will help a lot. After that, the documents will be revealed on your in-game map. You can then press the View/Back button or Tab to open the map, center the cursor on the symbol for the document you want to go after, and press A/Enter to set a local waypoint/player beacon. Now, when you return to the game and activate Survival Instinct, a blue beacon will lead you straight to the document.

From the starting point, after having gathered resources, head to the center of the map and make your way through the ground level of the Central Core. You can blow up the metal doors with explosives, but it's easier (and quieter) to enter through the open doorway on the right. You'll still need to watch out for infected as you go.
