This is a guide on how to get all the collectibles in Call of Duty Black Ops 3.
There are 56 collectibles across 11 missions, and trophies for each. Get the Walking Encyclopedia trophy by finding all the collectible locations in one mission. Get the Curator trophy by collecting them all.
The collectibles are all completely different in size and shape. If you do come near one, you will see a white icon marking it. The mission select screen will also tell you how many collectibles there are and how many you have collected. You can always pause the game to track them down as well.
