Contraband Files

Contraband Files
Uncover The Truth. Control The Trade.

Contraband Files transforms exploration and looting into a server-wide investigation where players recover classified documents, smuggling evidence, wanted posters, syndicate records, and pages from the infamous Black Ledger.
Scattered throughout the world are 49 unique Contraband Files hidden inside loot containers, crates, military installations, oil rigs, underwater labs, supply drops, and other high-value locations. Every file recovered brings players one step closer to exposing the entire Contraband Network.
Collect them all, complete every evidence set, and unlock the final reward.
