Like the base game, Stalker 2’s new Cost of Hope DLC offers a handful of locked doors. It could take a while to solve the codes and access the items beyond them, so you might skip it. But if curiosity got the better of you and you still wish to try, then this guide is for you.
I have compiled a short list of codes that work in certain locations while exploring the DLC. Most of the time, you will find random items like medkits and ammo stashed away. But some areas are worth exploring, as these lockers will hold legendary suits to help you explore the Iron Forest and the Chornobyl Power Plant more efficiently.
Shadows of the Past Door Codes – 1654, 7812
I found a doorway on my left after heading up the stairs past the overturned car. You can’t miss this place, since it is part of the main story. The code for the locked door here is 1654. You will find a locker inside the room with random loot.
There is another locked door while exploring the anomalous apartments. During the objective to follow the trail of Tachenko’s group, you will find a locked door in a broken-down apartment if you look through the hole in the wall.
Use your gun to break the lock, then go through the open door on your left. Turn right and go through the newly unlocked door to find several doors on the opposite wall. You need to make your way towards the topmost green door. The code for this door is 7812.
The next-door code is within the same chapter. After obtaining the objective to find a way out of the building, you will come across a flight of stairs going up and down. Take the stairs up to find the door and enter the code 2469.
The Destructive Power of the Mind Door Codes – 1408, 171008
After following Mavka’s infiltration route and reaching Laboratory X16, make your way to the right side past the generator to find a door at the end of the corridor. Input the code 1408 to gain access to the room beyond.
Progress through the questline a bit more until you reach the operation theater room. Head up the southern stairs and input the code 171008 into the keypad on the right. Doing so will unlock the small door next to the keypad, revealing the Brummbar Exoskeleton.
All Projector Slide Locations
In case you wish to solve the operation theater projector puzzle yourself, you need to find 3 slides for a Projector. After accessing the locked door in Lab X16, you will find a slide for a projector inside one of the rooms on the upper floor. To reach it, you need to jump on top of the fuse contraption.
There’s another projector slide during the objective to get to the central rooms. Once you reach a sort of hospital ward, go right and turn right. Go down the passage and enter the room on your left. You will find several wooden chairs and tables here, and on the desk of one of the tables is the second projector slide.
Then, enter the operating theater and head up the stairs in the northern section of the theater. Then go down and enter the room on your right. Go right again and head down the stairs. Enter the cage on your left to find the third slide.
Insert all the slides into the operating theater projector to uncover several images. Inspect each image to get the lock code to the door.
Dangerous Way Door Code – 5342
After reaching the warehouse as part of the quest objective to find explosives, you might need to go down to the Abandoned Tunnels. Continue to go down until you find the mercury anomaly blocking your way. But if you step close to it with the Water Drop artifact, you can reveal a new path.
Continue to go through the passage until you reach the room with the locked door. Input the code 5342 to unlock it. Go through the passage and enter the room on your right to pick up the Liberty Exoskeleton.
Price of a Miracle Door Code – 2110
During the objective to find the entrance to X19, you will reach an area with electric water on the floor. You need to find a path going north to find the locked door. Input the code 2110 to unlock it. You will find the Kharod inside a trunk here.
