There are 12 Alan Wake 2 deer heads that you can find and stroke during your time as Saga, and while it’s not clear why you would do so, there is a reward for finding them all: a secret room full of supplies to help you through the last sequences ofAlan Wake 2. Some deer heads are incredibly easy to find, some not so much, but the either way you’ll have to do a certain amount of backtracking to get them all. if you want to get started on some deer hunting for pre-hunted deer, I’ve laid out where you can find every Alan Wake 2 deer head and how to get the reward at the end.

There are 12 deer heads for you to find and pet. All their locations are detailed on theAlan Wake 2 mapsbelow. It’s possible to have found all the deer heads by the start of Return 6, but make sure you don’t progress theAlan Wake 2 come up with a new planobjective at the end of Return 6. Otherwise, you’ll pass a point of no return and will miss the opportunity to find the deer heads and get the rewards.
You’ve got only three Alan Wake 2 deer heads to reach in the Cauldron Lake area. The first two can be found within the first few hours of the game, but the last one can be reached only after completing Return 5: Old Gods as this is when you acquire theAlan Wake 2 bolt cutters. Look through the image gallery below to see each deer head from the map.
There are five Alan Wake 2 deer heads to find and pet in Bright Falls. The first two can be quickly found on your first visit to the town, but the final three can only be reached during and just after Return 5: Old Gods. I’ve also marked the reward room on the map above, which I’ve explained how to get to further down too. Look through the image gallery below to see each deer head from the map.
The map below will help you find all four Alan Wake 2 deer heads in Watery. You can collect all of these in just one visit to Watery during Return 3: Local Girl, plus a little exploration afterwards. Look through the image gallery below to see each deer head from the map.
Now that you’ve found and pet all 12 of the deer heads in Alan Wake 2, head back to the Elderwood Palace Lodge room that serves as Saga and Casey’s base. Once you’re there, you should hear a deer making some noise. Follow the sound to the hotel lobby to spot the deer and keep following it to a previously locked room at the far end of the west corridor. Head inside the room thanks to the deer and you’ll be treated to a hefty supply cache full of ammo for all your weapons, healing items, and the odd flashbang and rocket flare.If you’ve been collecting cult stashes and other resource boxes during Saga’s story, this might not be hugely useful, as you’ve probably got a lot of things stored in your inventory and shoebox, but it’s a nice bonus for committing to petting all the taxidermy deer heads. Getting the supplies before the end of Return 6 also means you’ll be well-stocked for what’s ahead.© GamesRadar+. Not to be reproduced without permission.
