There are plenty of collectibles to find throughout Ori and the Blind Forest! In this walkthrough, we’ve detailed walkthroughs for the locations of all collectibles in Ori and the Blind Forest, as well as odds and ends that aid in your journey through Nibel.

Updated on April 20, 2023 by Gabrielle Castania: With the love for Ori and the Blind Forest: Definitive Edition ongoing, we wanted to update our Collectibles Guide for Ori and the Blind Forest to elaborate with individual guides on the more numerous or difficult to find collectibles. As such, we've now got individual guides for Ability Cells, Keystone Fragments, Life Cells and Energy Cells, Map Stone Fragments, and Spirit Light Containers, to which we've hyperlinked in a table for easy access. For anything that doesn't have an individual guide, we've still provided an overworld map marked with the locations of important things like Ancestral Trees, Spirit Wells, and more. Good luck in Nibel!
