There are two separate Underpass Archives checklists in CONTROL Resonant: 21 Exploration entries and 15 Accounts entries, according to Camzillasmom’s 2026 walkthroughs. Most are along the story route through The Spire and the Underpass research sites during Recursions and Iterations. The final two Exploration entries require returning after the main story for Maintenance Protocol.

Use the lists below in Archives order. Several items share rooms or landmarks, so you can collect them together. The walkthroughs are third-party guides rather than an official Remedy index; their linked pages include screenshots for spots that can be difficult to identify from directions alone.

Underpass Exploration collectibles: all 21 locations

The following names and order match Camzillasmom’s 2026 Underpass Exploration walkthrough. Items 20 and 21 are post-story collectibles in the Oldest House, not part of the main Underpass sweep.

Efficient route and items that do not count

The Underpass entrance is at the bottom of the Sinkhole in the Evacuation Zone. For a combined Archives sweep, follow the story ropes and inspect each research area, desk, office, and Player Customization box room as you travel between objectives. The paired entries called out above let you clear Exploration and Accounts together rather than revisiting the same rooms.
