Where to find & how to open the safes in MW2
Call of Duty has always included secrets you can find, such as pieces of intel or other collectables, however, Modern Warfare 2 seems to have scaled that back dramatically. Instead of scouring every level for collectables, you can easily grab the ones that have been added to Modern Warfare 2.
Here, you’ll only have a few safes to track down, and while there’s no in-game tracker, you will get an achievement for finding three of them in the campaign. Since there are only three of them, they can be fairly tricky to track down, but we’ve got a complete list of all the safes and their combinations in Modern Warfare 2.
Where are the safes in MW2?
El Sin Nombre - Diego Safe Code
- Mission: El Sin Nombre
- Location: Located on the second floor of the villa in Diego’s room, available as soon as you complete the introduction to the level and are given free rein. You will find it in the en-suite and the combination is located at the bottom of a poster nearby.
- Combination: 02-02-19
Alone Safe Code 1
- Mission: Alone
- Location: Around halfway into the level, you will make your way into a coffee shop. You’ll know you’re in the right place when Ghost and Soap joke about Ghost constantly wearing his mask. It’s located upstairs in the manager’s office, and to get in you will need to make sure you can pry the door open, so craft the item if needed. If you don’t have the resources, scour around the coffee shop to find them. Once inside, you’ll notice the safe in the right-hand corner, and the combination is the date of birth on the calendar nearby.
- Combination: 10-10-80
Alone Safe Code 2
- Mission: Alone
- Location: After the coffee shop, you will be in a large courtyard area filled with enemies. Take them out to make this easier, then look for a garage next to the coffee shop, where a safe will be hiding in the back office. You will find the combination nearby on a laptop in the main garage area.
- Combination: 37-60-80
Each will give you guns and other pieces of equipment to use, and with El Sin Nombre and Alone being two missions where your firepower is stripped away from you, we highly recommend going out of your way to source these.
