Days Gone Bunker and Ambush Camp Guide

There are 14 ambush camps in Days Gone, which are required to complete the Ambush Hunter quest line (and trophy).

In this guide, we will tell you about all the locations of the ambush camps, as well as their bunker locations. Your goal in each ambush camp is to kill all the enemies in it. You are then given a search area to find a hatch to an underground bunker. Below are instructions on where to find each bunker in the camp. Clearing camps is best done discreetly. Crossbow and hand-to-hand combat are perfect for this. You can also throw rocks to distract enemies and then sneak attacks. Clearing out all the ambush camps should be one of your top priorities. They remove the fog from the map and discover collectibles in the area. You also get the crafting recipes needed to craft all types of crossbow bolts for the Pleasant Variety trophy. After completing the story, free exploration of the map is available, so you can return to all regions and complete any side objectives and collect any collectibles you missed. It is worth noting that there are two temporary points of no return. One at the end of Region 3 "Lost Lake" and one at the end of Region 5 "Crater Lake". This will lock you out of some regions until the end of the story. Then after the story ends, the whole map is revealed again.

How to unlock the Ambush Hunter Days Gone achievement

As we wrote earlier, you need to clear all Days Gone ambush camps of enemies and visit all bunkers. Here are maps with the location of all camps and bunkers:

Ambush Camp #1: Cascade Radio Tower

Region: Cascades Completes automatically in the story mission "Patriots must not starve". The bunker is located inside the building opposite the high tower.

Ambush Camp #2: Jefferson Rail Tunnel

Region: Cascades You will find a bunker at the top of the hill where most of the enemies were. Just behind a small wooden shack.

Ambush Camp #3: Horse Creek

Region: Cascades You will find a bunker under a high voltage tower.

Ambush Camp #4: Black Crater

Region: Belknap You will find a bunker at the very end of the camp near a large fire.

Ambush Camp #5: Belknap Caverns

Region: Belknap The bunker is located on the high ground on the side where there were the fewest enemies (right above the cave where the Freakers sleep). This is the opposite side of the camp from the sniper.

Ambush Camp #6: Hot Springs

Ambush Camp #7: Dearborn

Ambush Camp #12: Cascade Lakes Railway

Region: Crater Lake Bunker is located near the railroad in a snowy area, not far from one of the compartments of the train, through which you can pass.

Ambush Camp #13: Aspen Butte

Region: Highway 97 Inside the block building. Most of the enemies spawned around this area.

Ambush Camp #14: Bare Bay

Region: Highway 97 The last entry/exit bunker from the camp.

That's all 14 ambush camps in Days Gone. Clearing them completes the Ambush Hunter quest line and unlocks the trophy of the same name. This will also clear the fog on the map and automatically reveal collectible locations.
