Every safe combination you need for The Last of Us: Part II

Surviving the apocalypse in The Last of Us Part II can feel downright impossible without the proper tools by your side, and one way to claim more materials for your satchel is to steal them from locked safes littered throughout the landscape of post-apocalyptic Seattle. You'll need to find the "Artifact" (usually a hand-written note in the area) to find the combination needed to unlock each safe.

This list includes every safe location and combination in Last of Us 2, broken down chapter by chapter. Can you collect all 14?

Inside the room, you'll find an artifact hinting at the safe combination and a picture of a dog. The safe is right next to the artifact.
