This guide details the steps required to locate and rescue the Timefall Resistant Emu in Death Stranding 2. The creature lives in a dangerous, hidden area on top of a snowy mountain, so it's important to use exact scanning and capture methods.

Along the way, picking up extra packages earns reputation points and experience that can be given to the right seller to improve their standing.

Mission Overview

The objective is to find the Timefall Resistant Emu, capture it, and deliver it safely to the Metagenomicist. Although the primary focus is on the emu, several optional packages are scattered throughout the region, recovering these grants reputation and experience when turned in.

Reaching the Secret Area

Accessing the emu's location involves a lengthy descent down a snowy mountain. The terrain is challenging and may deplete equipment battery life, so proceed slowly and carefully.

It is advisable to station a Truck partway down the slope to minimize backtracking: begin on foot, descend until the vehicle is reachable, and then continue the journey with its assistance.

Collecting Side Packages

Scattered along the route are non‑quest packages that reward reputation points and experience. These items are not required for mission completion but can be stored in the Truck for later delivery.

When passing a distribution center or vendor, off‑load accumulated packages to convert them into reputation and experience gains.

Locating the Timefall Resistant Emu

When you get to the hidden spot, turn on the scanner to see blue spectral lines in the surroundings. These show that the Timefall Resistant Emu is nearby. Keep looking until you find the creature's location.

Capturing the Timefall Resistant Emu

Approach the emu swiftly once it is detected. As it attempts to flee, repeatedly press the capture command (Triangle on PlayStation) to trigger the capture even while it is running.

Persistence is key: continue the command spam until the creature is secured and automatically placed into the Animal Crate.
