Navigating the star-studded streets of Bel-Air in Dead Island 2 brings plenty of opportunities to scavenge high-tier loot, but some of the best rewards are locked securely away. Players exploring the lavish mansion of aging rock star Curtis Sinclair will quickly spot his private valuables safe located in the wine cellar. However, unlocking this container requires tracking down a specific key held by a unique named zombie that only appears after certain narrative milestones are met.
Prerequisites for Finding the Key
Before you can obtain the necessary keycard, you must first complete the main story mission known as The Chosen One. Additionally, you need to finish Curtis's personal side quest, The Death of the Party, to ensure his home is accessible. Once these conditions are fulfilled, the game world will update and spawn the specific target holding the item.
Returning to the mansion during later stages of your campaign allows you to hunt down the designated enemy. The required item is held by a special Screamer zombie named Crystal the Lawyer. Eliminating this formidable threat is the only way to claim the prize.
Locating Crystal the Lawyer
To find the target, head directly to the guest restrooms located near the back gardens of Curtis's estate. Crystal the Lawyer will typically spawn around this outdoor amenities area alongside a small horde of standard walkers. Because Screamers can alert nearby undead, it is highly recommended to engage her quickly with heavy blunt weapons or ranged firearms.
Defeating Crystal will cause her to drop the coveted item onto the ground for collection. Make sure to clear out any remaining environmental hazards before picking up your reward. Once secured, you can head back indoors to claim your loot.
Unlocking Curtis Sinclair's Valuables Safe
With the item safely in your inventory, navigate back through the main house and descend into the wine cellar section. Locate the locked container mounted on the wall to automatically use your newly acquired item. Opening this secure storage unit rewards players with a highly valuable Tactical Heavy Revolver and rare crafting resources.
This powerful firearm serves as an excellent addition to your arsenal for handling mid-game boss encounters. Finding these specialized items ensures your survivor remains fully equipped to handle the escalating zombie threat across HELL-A.
