There are several collectibles and weapon types in Dead Island 2, many of which are found on enemies or inside locked areas. Some places use Fuses to open, like garage doors and electric locks, but items like chests and safes need keys. One key worth finding belongs to Curtis Sinclair for his safe inside his mansion.

Curtis Sinclair is an old movie star in Dead Island 2 that players encounter during a side quest. His house is overrun with Zombies, but several valuable items spawn inside, including Med Packs, Energy Drinks, and more. Perhaps the most useful is Curtis's locked safe, but getting the key is impossible without reaching a certain point in the storyline. So, this guide outlines where to find the key to Curtis's Safe in Dead Island 2.

Where is Curtis' Safe Key in Dead Island 2?

After completing Curtis's side quest, players can access his house and the safe whenever they want. The safe is in his wine cellar, but the key is in a different area. Curtis's Safe Key is found on a Zombie named Crystal the Lawyer.

Crystal the Lawyer is a Screamer variant who hangs around Curtis's house. She will only appear after players unlock Screamers during the tenth main storyline mission with Sam B. Screamers are Apex Zombies that emit a loud piercing shriek strong enough to knock players back. Unfortunately, their terrifying screams also attract more Zombies to the area, so players will likely get ambushed while dealing with them. The most efficient way to handle Screamers and their surrounding hordes is explosives.

After finishing mission 10 in Dead Island 2, players can find Curtis's Safe Key. Crystal typically spawns on the side of the house near the guest bathrooms and the garden area. Players must kill her, and then she will drop Curtis's Safe Key.

Crystal the Lawyer doesn't go down easy, so players should stock up on items and Med Packs. Additionally, the house is a hotspot for Screamers, so be prepared to duke it out with other Zombies in the area.

The wine cellar is a small closet inside his mansion beside the bathroom near the backdoor. With the key in hand, players can unlock the safe and pick up a Tactical Heavy Revolver to arm themselves with. Players can craft ammo or buy it from merchants and traders in various LA areas. Like melee weapons, firearms can be modded in Dead Island 2 to give them special abilities that boost their power.

Dead Island 2 is available now on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S.
