In Death Stranding 2, you will be constantly hunting for upgrades to your existing gear. These upgrades will not only aid in survival but might even make combat much easier. Some gear helps Sam make the perilous journeys across Australia or Mexico much quicker. Amongst the different items you get in the game will be a range of backpack accessories. Sam can equip these accessories on his backpack, which grants special perks to him.

However, find all of these can be tricky, especially during your first playthrough. One of the accessories that can prove immensely useful during BT encounters is the Bell. In the following guide, we’ll explore how you can unlock the Bell accessory in Death Stranding 2, along with how it benefits Sam.

You can get the Bell only after reaching far enough into the story to complete Order Number 16. This mission sees Sam deliver some emergency cargo to the Northern Environmental Observatory. Upon making this journey successfully, you can then interact with the facility’s terminal to complete the delivery. Sam will also have the opportunity to add the Northern Environmental Observatory to the Chiral Network after this quest is complete. You can then speak with Mike Northcote, the Prepper at this base. He’ll eventually give you the Bell accessory, but not right now.

First, you’ll need to complete a number of optional Aid Requests and Sub Orders for this facility. Each of these will earn you several Likes, depending on how efficiently you delivered their cargo. Over time, you’ll climb through the different connection levels with this facility. After you reach connection level 4 with them, you will finally get the Bell accessory.

How To Use the Bell Accessory in Death Stranding 2

The Bell accessory will help you evade Gazer and Watcher BTs more easily. So, if you want to, you can avoid being detected and simply stealth your way through such an area. Perhaps even more useful is the additional perk that the accessory offers. It prevents your vehicle batteries from suddenly ceasing to function every time you enter a BT-infested area. Normally, the battery failure occurs whenever you enter such zones on the map, which forces you to stop if you’re in a vehicle. With this accessory equipped, however, you can keep going and not suffer such power disruptions.
