Rise of the Tomb Raider Croft Manor: Blood Ties - Relics and Documents collectible locations

Throughout Croft Manor are tons of Blood Ties Relics and Documents - 54 Relics, 40 Documents and 2 Murals, to be exact - which flesh out the back story of both Lara and her family. Most are optional, some are essential for finishing the story, and all are required to mop up the expansion's achievements.

These are listed by how they appear in order inside the menu, so you can scan through the list and easily locate what you're missing. Our advice is to completely finish the story first - our Rise of the Tomb Raider - Croft Manor: Blood Ties walkthrough can help with that - before mopping up the rest.

Additionally, some Relics allow you to examine them further in some way. While not essential, the game will specifically say there's something else to notice, but not how; we say where you should look to unlock the additional dialogue in brackets. The controller will start rumbling when on the right track, and keep it there until the message pops.

Note that the two Murals are the Suits of Armour at the top of the Document listing, and simply require you to interact with them.
