Celeste’s Childhood Drawings quest walkthrough in Arc Raiders

October 12, 2026

Arc Raiders’ “Celeste’s Childhood Drawings” quest sends you across Riven Tides to recover three pieces of Celeste’s childhood artwork. Lance wants to lift her spirits, but the search involves several easy-to-miss locations.

The objectives can be completed over multiple rounds. You must first locate Celeste’s room in Hotel Panorama Azzurro and inspect an important map before the two remaining drawings become available.

Celeste’s Childhood Drawings quest steps

There are four objectives in total. Complete the first two in the hotel, then visit the Customs House and the Quay in either order.

Find young Celeste’s room in Hotel Panorama Azzurro.
Search for something significant inside the room.
Locate the drawing on the roof of the Customs House.
Find the drawing at the Quay.

Find young Celeste’s room in Hotel Panorama Azzurro

The left-hand side of the image shows the player in Arc Raiders standing in young Celeste's room in Hotel Panorama Azzurro while the right-hand side of the image shows the location marked on the in-game map.

Hotel Panorama Azzurro is a large building, so knowing the room number makes this search much quicker. Head to room 213 on the second floor of the building’s eastern side, above the dining area and dance floor.

If you climb the exterior stairs, room 213 is the first room directly ahead. Enter it to complete the first objective.

Next, approach the desk against the wall and inspect the map. This completes the search objective and reveals the locations of the two drawings.

Find the drawing on the Customs House roof

The left-hand side of the image shows the player in Arc Raiders standing in front of the drawing on the third Customs House while the right-hand side shows the location marked on the in-game map with a star.

Customs House is a named area containing four buildings arranged in a line. The drawing is on the roof of the second building from the north. The location is described in-game as the third Customs House, although its position makes it appear to be the second building in the row.

Look for a large metal structure on the roof. Move to the end nearest the centre of the roof and interact with it to inspect the drawing.

Find the drawing at the Quay

The left-hand side of the image shows the player in Arc Raiders standing in front of the drawing at the Quay while the right-hand side of the image shows the location marked on the in-game map with a star.

The Quay is the easternmost named location on Riven Tides. Once there, search for two enormous cable spools.

The drawing is attached to the leg of the second spool. Inspect it to finish the final objective.
