Need a new attack helicopter to replace your broken down old model? You’ll unlock a shiny new golden Urga Mstitel when you find all the audio tapes chronicling dictator Di Ravello’s rise to power in Just Cause 3. Spread out across Medici, each of the game’s major areas has a host of audio tapes in various provinces, so you’re in for quite a trek to collect them all.
Unlike the rebel shrines, ancient tombs, or stunt jump locations, quite a few of the audio tapes are actually directly inside major settlements, though, so you won’t have to go hunting on cliff tops or in forests to find them. Here’s how to quickly grab all 12 tapes found throughout Insula Dracon.
Province: Capite West
Audio Tape 1
Coordinates: N 40 42.919 E 5 35.197
This is a nice and easy one to kick off the Insula Dracon search! Head to Arco Sperantia and run up to the columned brick building flying the Medici flag. The first tape is sitting behind the second column when you walk up the steps.
Province: Massos
Audio Tape 2
Coordinates: N 40 42.180 E 5 37.558
Inside Cinta, you’ll find a destroyed section of wall with some scaffolding that’s positioned next to a skinny white building. Use your tether to head up the scaffolding and find the audio tape at the end of the alleyway, lying in a bunch of garbage.
Audio Tape 3
Coordinates: N 40 43.381 E 5 37.052
