Where to Find the Officer’s Lockbox Key in Dead Island 2

The key is located surprisingly close to the station on a walker named “Officer McKenzie,” who can be found southwest between the ocean and the LAPD Venice Beach Station.

Use your weaponry to send the undead Officer McKenzie back to the grave. Although he has slightly more health than standard walkers, I personally used the legendary sword “The One” to swiftly take out the zombie.

Officer McKenzie will drop the “Officer’s Lockbox Key,” loot the key along with any other weapon or body parts the zombie drops.

Head back toward the LAPD Venice Beach Station and make your way into the Secure Storage Room.

You can now unlock the Officer’s Secure Lockbox, which in my experience, contained a superior sword.
