We've prepared this guide below on how to open Michael's Safe in Dead Island 2. Dead Island 2 has finally arrived after several years of waiting.
In the midst of all the zombie types you'll be slaying, you'll be spending some time looking for some great weapons to make your battles against the undead much more manageable. One of these lock boxes is Michael's safe. It contains a unique weapon that you can use.
The game's story brings players to Los Angeles, allowing them to explore iconic locations that brimming with the best weapons, cash, and upgrades that will immensely help in their journey in the game. Without an option to change difficulty in-game, finding weapons in lockboxes compensates for that challenge.
How to open Michael's Safe in Dead Island 2
Opening Michael's Safe is quite easy. You must first take on a particular quest in Dead Island 2 to search for the safe and its key
First, start the "O Michael, Where Art Thou" quest. You'll be searching in Michael's house and come across a locked safe. It's found in the shelving unit in the house's living room. Despite getting access to the safe, you won't be able to open it without the key.
To get the key, continue to explore until you have finished the objective: "figure out where Jesse lives." The objective will then change to "pay Jesse Kwon a visit." As this happens, you must head into Michael's garden and use the back gate leading to a set of stairs.
You'll then take the stairs upwards, and on the right side, you'll come across a zombie called Michael's Protege. Once you kill this zombie, it will drop on the ground Michael's Safe key which you can then pick up.
With Michael's Safe key in your inventory, you can then head back to the safe and open it. You'll be receiving a Defiant Hunting Knife as a reward, which will help you better progress in-game. Just interact with the weapon to claim it.
There you have it, a full walkthrough on how to open Michael's Safe in Dead Island 2. Getting the Hunting Knife can help you deal some sizeable damage against the undead if used properly. So make sure you have that as part of your weapon arsenal!
