There are a total of 126 Collectibles in the new Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy game. These collectibles are broken down into three types: Compendium Archives/Items, Guardian Collectibles, and Outfits. Over a hundred different collectibles may look like a daunting task, but I am here to help, with this guide being the twelfth entry in a series covering all the collectibles in the new adventure game. Here, we will cover Chapter 12. This guide will show you where to find the collectibles locations in Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy Chapter 12: “Knowhere To Run.”
All Chapter 12 Collectibles Locations in Guardians of the Galaxy
For Chapter 12 of Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy, 14 collectibles need to be collected. The breakdown for this chapter is two Compendium Item, six Archives, one Guardian Collectible, and five Outfits. It is important to note that any collectible that is related to the Compendium is missable since your progress is reset upon returning to a chapter via Chapter Select. Make sure that you go through the whole game and get each item or create a new save at the start of every chapter in case you miss any of them. With that out of the way, let’s begin the guide for all collectibles locations in Chapter 12 of Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy.
To start, there are several items that you will collect in this chapter that is dependent on collecting them in previous chapters. These items are the Meditation Stone and Mourning Candle. Links to the guides for the previous levels can be found at the bottom of this article.
Meditation Stone (Item)
The Stone can be found in Gamora’s room and had to have been collected in Chapter 10. Go there and interact with the item. This will also start a conversation with Gamora. Once the interaction is done, the Stone collectible will be added to your item collection.

The Candle can be found in Drax’s room and had to have been collected in Chapter 10. Go there and interact with the item. This will also start a conversation with Drax. Once the interaction is done, the Candle collectible will be added to your item collection.
