Key Highlights
  • The First badge is the Music Sheets Badge which there are eight scattered throughout the map.

  • For the Plant Badge in Antvillage, you need to collect a purple, red, and yellow plant and hand them over to a person named Malo
  • To get the Cat Badge, you need to head into a street where there is nothing but neon lights. Head forward until you find a shop where there is a computer on the selling end. Head to the highest shelf where a Digicode Safe will be found. Entering the code 8542 will unlock the badge. 
  • After you are at the location of the Police Badge, you need to encounter a dead robot policeman who has his badge on him. 
    For the Neco Badge, you will need to find a worker’s keys and give them back to him to get the badge.

Stray Badge Locations 

For players in Stray that are completely new to the game, you should know that there are a total of badges that will be collectible. The main way that players will encounter the said badges will be essentially through completing tasks, with some of them being through collecting music sheets and tasks like that. 

After players figure out all the Stray Badge Locations, they will be able to gain a trophy or an achievement, and it will probably be a huge accomplishment for players that are completionists and simply want to get all kinds of achievements in-game. 

The 6 badges will be split into certain locations, and each will have a certain amount of tasks to complete. 

  • 2 badges will be collected from the Slums area. 
  • 1 badge will be collected after completing certain tasks in the open-world area of Antvillage. 
  • 3 badges are to be had from the Mid-town area of the game. 

With that, let’s get started and figure out just how players can get their hands on these badges and then, eventually the trophy as well! Please keep in mind that every time you get a badge, you will need to go to a checkpoint so that your progress doesn’t get lost!

Seamus will continue to say that the Zurk eggs will consume him, and stray players will need to keep exhausting their dialogue with the robot man. After talking to the man for a while, he will mention giving you a “badge”, and he will ask you to take it to his father, and he says that his father will recognize that you are a friend of his. 

He will hand you the Outsiders badge and will even offer up to open the door for you so that you can show it to the father. With that, players will have gotten their second badge. Make sure to make your way to the next checkpoint otherwise your progress won’t get saved!

To get it, you will need to go into a street where it seems that there is nothing but neon lights, there will be tons of shops filled with all kinds of items and inventory. 

Head forward until you encounter a small shop where there seems to be a computer on the selling end and a customer who is also a robot. Lead up onto the counter, and jump onto the checkerboard floor. Once you are in, you will need to steer right, and then you will need to jump onto the shelves that are located there.

Jump up the first AC Unit, and then up the second, until you can jump up a few orange pipes. 

There will be a ton of rooftops you can walk across, run across them until you hit a dead end by a window, turn left and jump up the AC Unit. players will sort of need to parkour their way up the few units present. Eventually, you will encounter a barred window and you will need to leap up to get inside the room. 

Jump down onto the floor, and there will be a dead robot policeman who will still have his badge on him. Players will need to inspect the badge first before they can get hold of it. Once done, the badge will be automatically added to your inventory.

Jump across two more barrels, and hop onto the platform to safety. Players will encounter a half-open door, through which they can slip in, and they will enter a massive empty room. Interact with the worker and he will give you the quest to find his keys. 

Keep running across the platform, hop over the balcony bars, and turn back, steering left from the worker’s location, keep heading forth and take shelter with the dumpster that is being carried by the machinery to avoid suspicion by the drone.

Jumping over a few barrels will lead you to the worker’s keys, and handing them back to the worker will grant you the Neco Bage. with that, we will wrap up our Stray Badge Locations guide! Do not miss out on our Stray Music Sheet guide!
