Prey All TranScribe Locations (Audio Logs)

Prey has 88 collectable TranScribe Locations (Audio Logs) for the trophy and achievement “Psychometry”.

Just like the other Prey collectible trophies this should unlock early at about 65-80 TranScribes. You do NOT need all TranScribes to earn the trophy (tested with patch 1.00 – 1.01). No worries if you can’t find one TranScribe. Just keep playing and get the others, the trophy should unlock easily with a few of them missing. In fact, it is impossible to get all 88 in one playthrough. This is because one TranScribe can only be obtained when letting Dr. Igwe suffocate in Talos I Exterior (by not doing his side quest). But then other TranScribes and side missions will get locked. So whether you save Dr. Igwe or not some TranScribe will always be unobtainable.

At the start of main mission “Repo Man” you can still go back to all areas and free roam around the Talos I space station. Do not progress past this mission! After completing the game there is no free roam, so you can’t go back anymore. All TranScribe Audio Logs have to be found in a single playthrough to earn the trophy. It resets your progress when starting a new game.

To track your TranScribes, open the Inventory > Data > Audio Logs. Here it shows the names of all the TranScribes you have collected. Under Data > Statistics you can scroll all the way to the bottom to see the total amount of TranScribes. There is no tracker per area, only the total can amount can be tracked.

It is highly recommended that you get the human abilities “Repair” (needed to get 2 of Danille Sho’s recordings), “Hacking IV” and “Leverage III”. Hacking and Leverage are a must-buy to access certain areas. The Typhon Power “Mimic Matter” allows you to transfrom into tiny objects and slip through tight cracks. It’s not absolutely needed but certainly a helpful skill to have when going for collectibles.
