If you're trekking through the surreal wastelands of Death Stranding 2 and want to boost your resources in Mexico, you’ll definitely want to track down Bokka. He’s a mysterious prepper tucked away off the main path, but he's worth the detour. From exclusive gear to in-game advantages, befriending Bokka adds a solid edge to your journey. Here’s exactly how and where to find him.
Where to Find Bokka in Death Stranding 2To locate Bokka, head west of Ciudad Nudo del Norte (C1)—a major facility brought online during Main Order No. 002. You’ll want to start your search near the mountain base in that area. Keep an eye out for stray cargo marked “Lost Cargo: Bokka”—once you pick it up, his shelter will be revealed on your map. From there, just follow the marker, and you'll reach his isolated facility.

Pro Tip: Don’t expect Bokka’s place to show up early in your Mexico expedition. You’ll have to explore and trigger the right flags (like picking up his lost cargo) before his hideout becomes accessible.


Why Bother with Bokka?Unlike some preppers, Bokka isn’t tied to any major storyline missions, but he’s far from pointless. Connecting with him unlocks gear that’s not just cool, but actually useful
. Think boots that grip better, guns that snag cargo from afar, and even map features that reveal other porters nearby.

Plus, if you're aiming for a high-performance playthrough with better infrastructure and build options in Mexico, leveling up your Connection Level with Bokka gives you bandwidth and material boosts that come in clutch.
