Death Stranding – How to Get the Covered Backpack Upgrade

Convince an optional Collector Prepper to join the UCA to get the Covered Backpack, one of the best upgrades in the game. He is located just south of the Distribution Center, South of Lake Knot City, in the Central Region. The Covered Backpack upgrade protects all the gear in your backpack. It makes it so attacks will not knock it loose, MULEs cannot grab it with Sticky Guns, and it is protected from the rain. This only counts for the square of space around the backpack itself. To reach this Prepper, bring a Climbing Anchor and locate the hiding spot in the crevasse on the edge of MULE territory.

If you do not have any Lost Cargo to return to him, you will find a bunch at the local MULE camp —- and there is a Standard Order available at the Delivery Terminal. Take on the “Deliver Old Game Console” quest to get in good with the Prepper. The Game Consoles are located in two locations. They can be found in the Postbox in the center of the nearby MULE camp and at a disguised Postbox outside the camp. You only need to get one to complete this quest, but getting all three for maximum benefits is recommended. One order will not be enough to get the upgrade item.

After the Prepper joins the Bridges network, you will unlock extra quests on the Standard Orders menu. Select “Collection: Large Consignment Of Video Games” or “Recovery: Tactical Action Games Stolen By MULEs” so you can increase the Collector star ranking. You will not be able to get the Prepper to join you until further in the game — so do not bother trying until past Episode 6. Even if you have reached Episode 6, you will need to wait longer until this Prepper gives you the gear you need.
