Like many other Dead Island 2 players near the tail end of the game, I was confused whenever I was only given a surveillance camera image to find the location of Dr. Reed’s lab. By traveling around the nearby areas and keeping an eye out for security cameras, players can quickly triangulate where the camera footage was likely from.

As players draw closer to this target area, dialog between the two characters will confirm that you are on the right path. Soon after arriving, the metal sheet gate will open and players will need to blast through a massive wave of zombies.

Though far from the only mission in Dead Island 2, The Search for Truth can prove to be one of the more difficult.
