Senua’s Saga: Hellblade 2 - All Lorestangirs Locations

In Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice, dotted throughout the game’s relatively short campaign were 44 Lorestones, which told the stories and myths of yesteryear. While they tended to be pretty much everywhere, in Senua's Saga: Hellblade 2, not only have the Lorestones been replaced by Lorestangirs - to fit in with Senua being in Iceland - but there’s also considerably less of them.

There are 18 to collect in all - as well as Hellblade 2’s hidden faces - spread across 5 of the 6 chapters of the game, and they tend to be slightly more well hidden than Hellblade 1. And yes, collecting all 18 will unlock you the Tales of Midgard achievement and net you 100 Gamerscore.

Below you will find the location of all 18 Lorestangirs, where to find them, and during which act (we’ve also included the sub-chapter as well, in case you’re looking for a specific one once you’ve finished the main game and unlocked Chapter Select).

Happy hunting!

Chapter 1 Lorestangirs Locations (1)

• After heading through the tutorial area, after creeping along the cliff-face, while going towards the woman’s screams, this Lorestangir is on the right, on the cliff, overlooking the ocean (Chapter 1 - Reykjanesta - Landfall).

Chapter 2 Lorestangirs Locations (4)

• In the next chapter, when walking with slavemaster, there’s some thatched-roofed huts on the right. The Lorestangir is behind them (Chapter 2 - Freyslaug - Freyslaug Sighted).

• After passing through the Rune gate in the Draugr village and crossing the small bridge (after the flashback sequence), when you come out of the first house, head left and follow the path around until you have to crouch under a wooden barricade. The Lorestangir is on the other side of it, on the right  (Chapter 2 - Freyslaug - Return Home).

• When you drop down into the Draaugr infested part of the village, the path onwards will be straightforward, but near to the totem on the right, take a left and head up the ladder. Follow it to the end for the Lorestangir (Chapter 2 - Freyslaug - Draugar Ceremony).

• After rescuing Fargrimr from the Draugar ritual, on your way back to his village you’ll head down a slope to the right of a broken bridge. At a marker on the path down the hill, take a left and follow that path to the end. The Lorestangir is at the end of this trail (Chapter 2 - Freyslaug - Meeting the Stranger).

Chapter 3 Lorestangirs Locations (6)

• After the transition to a new area, when you start to get into the settlement’s outskirts, there’ll be a pole in the middle of the path, from there head to the left, and go around the back of the ruins of a house. There’s a Lorestangir in a small indentation further beyond the house (Chapter 3 - Raudholar - Red Hills).

• Once you’ve made it to Fargrimr’s settlement and before you head off to find the hidden folk, do a 180 and follow the path all the way behind Fargrimr’s hut to the left. At the top, in front of the hut on the hill, is this Lorestangir (Chapter 3 - Raudholar - On the Hill).

• After solving the puzzle with the orbs to open up the blocked path, head up the hill and to the left in the far corner. Follow the path around to find this Lorestangir (Chapter 3 - Raudholar - On the Hill).

• After solving the second orb puzzle, and then dropping down two ledges. After the small bit of water, hang a left and head through the rocks. Follow the path to the end for this Lorestangir (Chapter 3 - Raudholar - On the Hill).

• On the opposite side of the gap in the rocks to the previous Lorestangir (just a bit further up the path) there’s a gap underneath the rock. Crawl under it and there’s a Lorestangir at the end (Chapter 3 - Raudholar - On the Hill).

• On the ceiling behind the third orb during the lake orb puzzle (the third orb puzzle). Just head to the wall behind the third and it’ll be on the ceiling ready to interact with. Only available during the orb puzzle (Chapter 3 - Raudholar - Find the Hiddenfolk).

Chapter 4 Lorestangirs Locations (3)

• When in the caves (underneath the lake), after dropping down a couple of ledges, when the cave starts to open out, head right (past a shield leaning up against a wall) for this Lorestangir (Chapter 4 - Huldufolk - Enter the Caves).

• After solving the light bridge puzzle you’ll head into some caves. When it starts to open out, look to the right and then drop down for this Lorestangir (Chapter 4 - Huldufolk - Trial of Wisdom).

• After giving away your sword and following the light through the dark, before the final puzzle chamber (which is left), on the right is a tunnel that leads to this Lorestangir (Chapter 4 - Huldufolk - Act of Sacrifice).

Chapter 5 Lorestangirs Locations (4)

• When you reach the next act - with Thorgestr and Fargrimr - you’ll walk through a peaceful mountain path. You’ll eventually come across a small waterfall and a stream. Cross over it, go up the hill, and at the top of the hill do a 180 and follow the path back towards the waterfall. This will lead you above it, where there is a Lorestangir at the top, overlooking the coast below (Chapter 5 - Bardarvik - To the Sea).

• After hearing the giant and heading back to the settlement, you’ll climb up, and then drop down a ledge (after squeezing through a crack in the wall). When you mantle over a stone pillar, head right to the top of the hill, and then head right through a gap in the rocks. Follow the path (under the crawlspace) to the top and the Lorestangir is there (Chapter 5 - Bardarvik - Sjavarrisi).

• When solving the Rune door puzzle on the beach, when you’re in the second area of the beach, go between the rocks where the blue haze is, and then follow it to the end and to the right. The Lorestangir is there (Chapter 5 - Bardarvik - Another Question).

• After coming out of the ocean into the village, a little way in you’ll come to a crossroads of sorts - there’ll be a small house with a lantern at the far end of the village. Right is the correct way deeper into the village and to the objective. Left and round the back is where to find the last Lorestangir (Chapter 5 - Bardarvik - Another Question).
