All Diablo 4 Mystery Chest Locations

The Helltide events in Diablo 4 are one of the biggest activities in the game that yield a variety of awesome rewards, including the highly sought after Mystery Chests. They’re scattered across the entire map in just about every region, and aren’t always easy to find. If you’re trying to get your hands on as many of these chests as possible, we’ve put together a Mystery Chest Location guide to show you where every single one is in the game.

What Is a Mystery Chest in Diablo 4 & How to Unlock Them

Mystery Chests spawn exclusively during Helltide Events, which consistently take place every 75 minutes and last for exactly one hour in one of the five regions of Sanctuary. The chests are referred to in-game as ‘Tortured Gifts of Mysteries’, as seen above, and come in two different sizes. Both need a certain amount of cinders to unlock them. The smaller chests require 75 cinders, while the bigger ones need 175 cinders.

During the Helltide Event, you need to kill as many high-level enemies and bosses as possible to maximize the rewards you’ll receive by the end of the event, and gain Cinders to unlock as many of these Mystery Chests as you can. It’s also a very effective way to farm those precious Fiend Roses.

While the smaller chests will spawn in greater number, only two of the large chests will spawn in random, pre-selected locations in the designated region. Make note that they’re not guaranteed to spawn in every single Helltide Event.

Each region has its own set of possible spawn locations for these Mystery Chests, which we’ve indicated below. So make good use of fast traveling to make sure you can check as many of them as you can.
