Where to Find Every Memory in Stray

Memories are collected in Stray as you move through the world. They are represented by glowing blue energy that B-12 can gather to recover some of its lost memories. There are 27 in total, five of which are automatically obtained as you proceed through the story.

Chapter Select is available, so no Memories are missable, although you will have to replay the entire chapter to obtain any you missed.

Story Memories (Automatically Obtained)

Memory 01

This memory is automatically obtained as part of the story. Right after you meet up with B-12 in The Flat, you’ll go outside and hop in the bucket to cross the long rope. On the other side, you’ll find a mural of a sandy beach and B-12 will pick up the postcard, completing the first memory.

Memory 02

This memory is automatically obtained as part of the story. After connecting the repaired transceiver, B-12 will remember the original purpose of the city, unlocking this memory.

After meeting Guardian, the citizens in the Safe Zone will emerge from their hiding spots. Down the stairs from Guardian, there is a vending machine.

Climb the crates next to it and continue up to the roof, then hop across the gap to the building with the Chroma Green sign, then continue up until you reach the slanted rooftop to find a dead robot and the Memory.

Memory 07

Memory 07 can be purchased from The Market, just down the stairs to the right of Guardian, the first robot you meet in Stray.

To obtain it, you’ll have to trade three Energy Drink Cans, which can be found by fiddling with the vending machines scattered around The Slums.

Once you have three, come back and inspect the covered object at The Market and show the merchant the Energy Drink Cans, then you’ll be able to inspect the picture to gain the Memory.

Memory 08

This Memory can be found upstairs in Dufer Bar on the main street of The Slums. Dufer Bar is located between Guardian and Elliot Programming.

Head inside Dufer Bar, then go up the stairs on your left. At the top of the stairs, turn right and you’ll find a plant. Inspect it to obtain the memory.

Memory 09

Memory 09 can be found in Momo’s flat, which is at the top of the tower in The Slums, near the orange sign.

Once you gain entry to Momo’s flat, head past Momo and through the hanging beads into their bedroom, then turn left.

Memory 10

This Memory is located in the alley where you find Kosmo’s shop. Facing Guardian, turn around and run down the stairs, then take a right before you reach Dufer Bar.

Follow the alley as it bends left, then run all the way to the end and climb the stairs.

Inspect the wall to obtain the Memory.

Memory 11

This Memory is located on a ledge in the alley just to the left of Morusque, the guitar-playing Sheet Music turn-in person.

Jump up the dumpster cans and ledges to reach it, or you can snag it on your way down from Notebook 02.

Rooftops Memories

Memory 13 is on the main path during the first section of The Rooftops. After passing the second group of Zurks, where you can cross a hanging I-beam, you’ll be able to hop up to an upper level where this neon sign is leaning up against a wall, amidst some wreckage. Inspect it to obtain the Memory.

Memory 14

Memory 14 is on the main path during the second section of The Rooftops. After climbing up the Zurk-infested tower and reaching the third level, you’ll find a hack gate with a rolling barrel and a swarm of Zurks inside.

Dead End Memories

Run to the end of the road and inspect the large sliding door to obtain the Memory.

Memory 16 is found after the hectic chase sequence. After you are launched from the cart and injured, hop up the pipes to reach the next level, then walk straight to the end of the road.

Duck through the peeled-back section of chain-link fence and turn right to find a robot. Inspect it to obtain the Memory.

Sewers Memories

Memory 18

Memory 18 can be found in The Sewers. After Momo opens the gate and you have to go on without him, you’ll jump up onto a walkway and turn left. Follow the hallway as it bends to the right, then take the first left.

Here you’ll find a small bunch of Zurk pods. Destroy the pods and the Zurks with your UV light, then jump up into the pipe on the left. Follow it through to the other side, then hop across to the railing and inspect the glowing light to obtain the Memory.

Memory 19 is found in The Sewers. After running through the areas with hatching pods, you’ll drop down to a pipe to continue.

Turn left and hop up the boxes on the side to reach a pipe, then head through it to find the Memory, near a Zurk nest with many eyes.

Head inside the shop and go to the back. Hop up onto the counters, then jump up to the ledge where potted plants are sitting. Knock them off gleefully, then aim the camera up and hop up into the broken section of the ceiling to find the Memory.

Memory 25

Memory 25 can be found in Midtown after you obtain the battery from the restricted area, but it cannot be obtained after you finish the Nightclub sequence.

Instead of returning to the Residence to meet Clementine, head back into town. Near the hologram, there is an office where police officers are talking.

Previously, the door was closed, but now it is open, so head inside and you’ll find a picture of a Sentinel. Inspect it to obtain the Memory.

Memory 26

Memory 26 is located in the Nightclub in Midtown. After obtaining the battery and deciphering Clementine’s notes, it will be revealed that she has gone to the Nightclub with Blazer.

Head back to the Nightclub, then circle to the back alley to the right. Climb up the air conditioning units on the wall opposite the club, then circle around to the right. Pass the cowboy robot in the purple coat, then cross the railing to reach the outer wall of the Nightclub building.

Turn right and talk to the robot in the window and he’ll let you in. Hop down and go to the bar, then stand on the dumbwaiter to reach the lower level, where you’ll find a table with drinks on it in the middle of a storage room. Inspect it to obtain the Memory.
