Below is every gnome in Stranger Things 3: The Game and where to find them, including their name, number as designated in-game, and which hub and specific location in which you can uncover their little red hats.
After this, you’ll unlock the Home a Gnome achievement/trophy on Xbox One, Steam, or PS4 (sorry, Switch players), not to mention your garden will look spectacular.
Before You Begin
One tip we definitely want to stress is that you need not worry about getting every gnome on your first run. Some areas hiding gnomes are blocked off until certain characters can access them with their unique skills, like Joyce’s boltcutters or Erica’s McClain-like ability to move through vents.
For that reason, we suggest getting whichever gnomes you can get as you play through, but go back and clear the streets only after you have all 12 characters unlocked. Because they’re numbered and named, it’s easy to see in the game’s menu which gnomes you’re still missing and which you’ll need to find once you can go anywhere you need.
