Baseball cards have long been a collectible item for many Americans. In the video game Far Cry 5, set in rural Montana, the developers included baseball cards as a hidden collectible for players to find. Scattered throughout Hope County are over 50 individual baseball card packs that can be discovered and collected by the player. Finding all of the baseball card packs is not necessary to complete the main story missions, but collectors will want to track them all down to achieve 100% completion.
Some of the baseball card packs are in plain sight, while others require a bit of exploration and problem solving to locate. The rewards for finding them are mostly cosmetic, such as unlocking baseball card-themed customization options for your character and weapons. The activity of seeking out all the hidden locations does provide players with a sense of accomplishment and encourages thorough searching of the expansive in-game world.
The baseball cards are divided among the three regions of Hope County: Holland Valley, the Whitetail Mountains, and the John Seed territory near Falls End. Multiple cards can be found in each area, with the densest concentrations located in populated areas like towns, gas stations, and other structures. Solitary cards may be discovered in more remote woodland areas as well.
In Holland Valley, one of the earliest baseball card packs can be found on a picnic table at the Silver Lake trailer park. Others are tucked away in various shops in Falls End such as the gun store and bait shop. The baseball field and concession stand at the old baseball diamond northwest of Falls End holds multiple packs. Near the Veteran’s Center, one pack awaits on a bench.
Venturing into the Whitetail Mountains, a lone pack sits on a stump along the river just north of the Veterans Center. Head to the lumber mill settlement and you’ll find packs in both the general store and diner. Deep in the woods near the F.A.N.G. Center bunker complex is a pack resting against a tree. Climbing to the summit of the mountain directly west of the Veterans Center rewards players with panoramic views and a baseball card pack.
John Seed’s region has its fair share of hidden packs as well. Multiple locations dot Main Street in Falls End such as the roof of the gun store, inside the diner, and tucked in an alleyway. Travel to the abandoned prison and search the guard house and warden’s office. A solitary pack waits on a fallen log spanning the river just north of the prison. For those brave enough to take on John Seed’s compound, a pack can be found on a table on the ground floor.
Nestled between the three major regions are also several remote locations with their own baseball card prizes. A solitary pack rests on a picnic table at the isolated pump station along Elk Jaw Trail. An abandoned farmhouse near the Veterans Center holds packs inside and in the dilapidated barn. A single pack blends in against a rock face at the scenic overlook just north of the F.A.N.G. Center.
Observant players who thoroughly search every nook and cranny will be able to find all 50+ baseball card packs across Hope County. While the rewards are minor, it provides the perfect optional activity for completionists or those who simply want to explore every inch of the expansive in-game world. With so many hidden in plain sight yet out of the way locations, it takes diligence and patience to discover them all. For baseball and collectible fans, the hunt serves as a fun way to extend the gameplay and provides a tangible sense of progress as the collection grows closer to completion. Although a side activity, finding all the baseball cards rewards players with a deep sense of discovery and achievement in Far Cry 5.
