The Last Guardian: Barrel Locations Guide

Barrels, or Trico Treats, are the only collectible you'll find in The Last Guardian. There are many barrels you're required to feed Trico, and some are more off the beaten path.

All barrel locations are listed in the order you find them. Click and image to expand it.

Tip: You'll know you're close to a barrel when you see butterflies. One means you're in the area of a butterfly and three means you're right next a barrel.

There are 10 barrels in this section.

Barrel 1 - Pull the lever in the ruin structure not far from Trico in the first area to reveal the first barrel.

Barrel 2 - Climb the right side of the ruin to snatch this barrel.

Barrel 3 - Above the room with the lever is another barrel. Climb the wall and crawl through one of the three holes to get to it.

Barrels 4 and 5 - After Trico is free from its chains, walk with it to the other part of the cave. There are two barrels on the ledge you have to climb to get to the next area.

Barrel 6 - After you get the mirror, walk to the back wall in that area of the cave and call over Trico. Climb Trico then use to to jump on the back wall. You'll find the barrel at the top of the wall in a little cove.

Barrels 7, 8, and 9 - These three barrels you'll find natrually as you look for a way to get Trico in the first pond. Push the crate off the ledge and all the barrels will be free. Be sure Trico eats all of them. 

 

Barrel 10 - The final barrel in the first cave area is by the waterfall in the back of the pond. Trico will leave, but you need to go back to the rocks by the waterfall and call Trico. The birddog will come back. Climb to Trico's head and use it to jump to the vines on the wall. Follow the vines up to a little cove where a barrel is hidden.

There are five barrels in this section. 

 

Barrel 1 - The first barrel is in the hallway behind the door you destory first when getting across to the ruins. After you call Trico up, use the mirror to destroy the debris at the end of the hallway. With it out of the way you can get to the barrel. 

 

Barrel 2 - Get this barrel by, after having Trico enter the ruin, take an immediate left when you come out of the stairwell. Call over Trico, then use its height to jump on the ledges and climb the wall. You'll reach a platform with the barrel.

Barrel 3 - Before you destroy the wooden barrier with Trico's lightning, enter the little cave on the left and grab the barrel that's stuck in the dirt.

 

Barrel 4 - After you destroy the first glass eye, head up the stairs and enter the crack in the wall by the railing. Walk all the way to the back of the passageway and you'll see the barrel. 

Barrel 5 - After you open the gate for Trico, run down the hall and you'll see the barrel lodged in the dirt.

This is a shorter section and does not have any barrels. 

There are 11 barrels in this section. 

Barrel 1 - After you climb Trico to get to the second floor in the ruins, enter the room by the broken bridge. You'll see the barrel stuck in the ground. 

Barrel 2 - The next barrel is on the other side of the broken bridge.

Barrel 3 - After Trico destroys the suits of armor, run back by the ledge you jumped down from and you'll see the barrel. 

 

Barrel 4 - Once you emerge from the long hallway, walk through the arch on the right and go down the stairs to the platform. You'll see the barrel lodeged in the dirt. 

Barrels 5, 6, 7, and 8 - After you pass through the gate, the boy learns to issue commands to Trico. Use the commends to destroy the crate holding the four barrels.

 

Barrel 9 - Now that you can command Trico, hold R1 and point to the wall that's to the left of the gate you just opened. Trico will jump up on the wall, allowing you to climb up, jump to the platform, and grab the barrel.

 

Barrel 10 - After Trico jumps across the broken bridge, instruct Trico to jump and lean on the back wall. Use Trico's height to jump to the ledge on the far right of the platform. You'll see the barrel on the broken corner of the platform.

Barrel 11 - After you've used the metal pillar to help Trico past the gate, walk into the small room and grab the barrel for Trico. The boy can easily pass through the bars.

There are 3 barrels in this section.

Barrel 1 - Once you're in the room with the chain, broken bridge, and glass eye, climb the chain and you'll see a higher platform in the room that houses a barrel.

 

Barrel 2 and 3 - When you're outside with the hanging eye, have Trico jump against the ruin bridge to the left of the door you emerged from to get to this area. Climb Trico to get to the bridge, and go left to grab the two barrels on this bridge.

   

Barrel 1 - After you get to the clearing where Trico sits, walk under the propped open gate and drop through the hole in the ground under the tracks. Enter the dark hallway and you'll find the barrel in the rubble. To get it back to Trico you either have to toss it from block to block, or you can walk it up the back left corner. The boy may or may not take a step in that back corner, but it can be done.

There are several barrels in this section, the first of which is required for you to find before you can move on.

 

Barrel 1 - After Trico saves you from the tree, enter the side room through a hole in the wall and you'll see the barrel on the ground. Get it up to the staircase by tossing it to the platfrom with the stairs. Stand on the other elevated platform across from the platform with the stairs to successfully throw it over. Then you can carry the barrel back to Trico.

This is an unconfirmed, but suspected barrel location. While Trico leaps the boy out of the room, there's a lit hallway not far from where the boy was hanging in the tree. Have you successfully found a barrel in that hallway? Let us know!

We're still on the hunt for all the barrels in the game, but feel free to add any secret or well-hidden barrels you've found! You can also write what you found in the comments and we'll be sure to add it.
