Assassin’s Creed Mirage’s free Valley of Memory expansion introduces a detective-style treasure hunt that rewards explorers with rare collectibles and the coveted “Lost and Found” achievement. The Stolen Goods system requires more than simply following map markers—you’ll need genuine investigation skills to decode cryptic clues and uncover AlUla’s hidden treasures.

How Stolen Goods Work
Unlike typical collectibles marked clearly on your map, Stolen Goods require detective work. After escorting widow Hind to Nimlot’s Estate early in the main questline, treasure map clues spawn throughout AlUla near historical sites and robber outposts.
Each clue carrier—a single robber—can be stealthily pickpocketed or assassinated to retrieve hand-drawn maps or cryptic notes detailing treasure locations. The challenge? These descriptions are intentionally vague, requiring you to interpret landmarks and navigate without precise markers.
Pro Tip: Collect and solve one clue at a time rather than grabbing all simultaneously. Multiple unsolved clues create confusion since some locations look remarkably similar.
Location #1: Sentinel of the Ruins
Where to Go: Travel to the Northern Wilds, specifically the Ramm Valley area filled with towering rock cliffs.
Navigation: Head northeast from Ramm Valley until you spot the massive arched stone structure. Climb the right side of this natural formation, making your way carefully to the summit. Near the cliff edge, you’ll find an interactable point to collect the treasure.
Why It’s Tricky: The climb requires patience and proper parkour timing. Rush it, and you’ll fall repeatedly.
Location #2: Drawing of a Facade
Where to Go: Fast travel to Hegra, then locate Al-Banat Mountain directly below the region marker on your map.
Navigation: This long rock hill is the only prominent formation near Hegra, making identification straightforward. Use the carved stairs on the right side to ascend, then navigate to the walkable platform just above the stair cutouts. Interact with a specific point on the stone wall to claim your reward.
Historical Context: Al-Banat Mountain features authentic archaeological details mirroring real-world AlUla heritage sites, demonstrating Ubisoft’s commitment to historical accuracy.
Location #3: A Robber’s Note
Where to Go: Southern Wilds region, specifically AlUla Cemetery’s southern outskirts.
Navigation: Search for a wooden pavement/bridge structure. On the right side of this bridge, beneath a large stone formation, you’ll discover an interactable collection point.
Stealth Recommendation: This area typically has patrol routes nearby. Clear enemies first or use smoke bombs to create safe collection windows.
Location #4: A Mark it Bears
Where to Go: Inside AlUla proper, north of the bustling AlUla Market.
Navigation: Identify the massive stone hill area north of the market on your map. Climb the two-story house directly adjacent to the stone structure (south side). Enter through the open upper-floor window. Inside, search for a black bag near a fallen vase with scattered sand—your treasure awaits there.
Environmental Storytelling: The deliberately placed props tell a story of hasty robbery, adding narrative depth beyond simple collection mechanics.
Location #5: Burial Mask (Bonus)
Where to Go: Forest area just south of Nimlot’s Estate.
Navigation: After obtaining the clue from Al-Ahmar, head south. The forest location contains the buried Burial Mask, one of the expansion’s most historically significant collectibles.
Cultural Significance: This references actual AlUla burial practices from the 9th century Abbasid Empire, blending gameplay with educational content.

Valley of Memory Context
This free expansion launched November 18, 2025, marking Assassin’s Creed Mirage’s two-year anniversary. Beyond Stolen Goods, the update introduces:
- Oud Melodies: Musical parkour challenges reminiscent of Black Flag’s sea shanties
- Replayable Missions: Animus Sequences with unique challenges and exclusive rewards

Technical Tips for Success
Use Eagle Vision Liberally: While clues don’t explicitly mark treasure spots, Eagle Vision highlights interactable objects from distance, saving exploration time.
Synchronize Viewpoints First: Completing Valley of Memory’s viewpoints reveals more map details, making treasure locations easier to identify from descriptions.
Check Your Investigation Board: Track Stolen Goods progress through the Investigation Board or directly within AlUla to avoid missing any clues.
Stealth vs. Combat: Most clue carriers spawn near hostile zones. Stealth assassinations avoid alerting nearby guards, maintaining your infiltration flow.
For players invested in Assassin’s Creed Shadows’ treasure hunting mechanics, Valley of Memory’s Stolen Goods system offers excellent practice for similar collection challenges in Ubisoft’s latest title.
Rewards Worth the Effort
Completing all Stolen Goods rewards Hind with her late husband’s recovered belongings, concluding her emotional storyline satisfyingly. You’ll receive:
- Lost and Found achievement/trophy (completion-focused players)
- Exclusive gear pieces unavailable through other means
- Deep satisfaction from genuine puzzle-solving rather than waypoint-following
The detective work required elevates these collectibles above typical open-world busywork, making Valley of Memory’s treasure hunt among Mirage’s most memorable activities.
Play Assassin’s Creed Mirage: Valley of Memory free on PlayStation, Xbox, PC, and Amazon Luna. The expansion requires completion of “The Head of the Snake” mission or can be accessed directly from the main menu.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to complete the main Assassin’s Creed Mirage story before accessing Stolen Goods in Valley of Memory?
Not entirely. You only need to progress until “The Head of the Snake” mission becomes available, then report to the Harbiyah Bureau where you’ll meet a boy who triggers the Valley of Memory questline. Within the expansion, Stolen Goods become accessible after escorting widow Hind to Nimlot’s Estate early in the story. However, players can also start Valley of Memory directly from the main menu when beginning a new playthrough, bypassing the base game requirement entirely.
Can I collect all Stolen Goods clues at once, or should I solve them individually?
While technically possible to collect all clues simultaneously by pickpocketing or assassinating all robber carriers, solving them one at a time is strongly recommended. Many treasure locations feature similar environmental characteristics—rock formations, ancient ruins, bridges—making it easy to confuse descriptions when holding multiple unsolved clues. Complete one treasure hunt fully before grabbing the next clue to maintain clarity and avoid frustration. The clue carriers remain in their locations, so there’s no risk of missing them by taking a methodical approach.
