- Eden Village collectibles include GridLeaks, Documents, Chipsets and hidden Runner Bags.
- The district sits in View Gardens, with dense mid-rise rooftops and narrow parkour lines.
- Unlock the Exploration Markers gear upgrade to reveal nearby collectible pings on the map.
- GridLeaks must be smashed mid-run — plan a line instead of stopping at each device.
- Clearing the district counts toward the Gridunlocked trophy and 100% completion.
Eden Village Collectibles Overview
Eden Village is one of the residential pockets inside the View Gardens district of Glass. Its tight building clusters, decorative ledges and rooftop gardens make it one of the more enjoyable districts to sweep for collectibles in Mirror's Edge Catalyst — but the density also means easy-to-miss items. Four collectible types spawn here, and each contributes to district completion percentage.
| Collectible | Type | How to Collect | District Contribution |
|---|---|---|---|
| GridLeaks | In-world device | Run through and smash them | Counts toward Gridunlocked trophy |
| Documents | Lore pickup | Walk up and interact | Adds story log entries |
| Chipsets | Progression item | Reach hard parkour spots | Spends on Upgrade Chips |
| Runner Bags | Hidden item | Find on rooftops/interiors | Adds to 100% completion |
Progress the main story until free roam unlocks in View Gardens, and grab the MAG Rope first. Several Eden Village rooftops and chipset perches are only reachable with rope swing points — attempting a full sweep without it wastes time.
Where Each Collectible Type Spawns in Eden Village
Each collectible family favors specific terrain. Knowing the patterns cuts your sweep time significantly.
GridLeaks
- Flash visibly from a distance
- Sit along parkour lines: billboards, awnings, wall-run paths
- Smash mid-run to keep Flow alive
Documents
- Found indoors: offices, maintenance rooms, alcoves
- Check building interiors during side missions
- Each adds lore on Glass and KrugerSec
Chipsets
- Placed at hard-to-reach perches
- Also rewarded from Dashes and Billboards
- Spend on Traversal, Combat and Gear upgrades
Runner Bags
- Hidden off the main path
- Rooftop corners and behind structures
- Exploration Markers reveal nearby pings
| Terrain Type | Most Likely Collectible | Approach Tip |
|---|---|---|
| Rooftop garden ledges | Chipsets, Runner Bags | Use wall-runs around planters |
| Billboard and sign frames | GridLeaks | Chain a jump line through them |
| Building interiors | Documents | Enter via vents and open windows |
| Gaps between mid-rises | GridLeaks, Chipsets | MAG Rope across instead of dropping |
Recovering height in Eden Village is slow. Stay on the rooftop layer and route your sweep in a loop — dropping down usually forces a full re-climb and breaks your rhythm.
Step-by-Step District Sweep Route
Follow this order to clear Eden Village efficiently. The route keeps you at rooftop height and front-loads the map upgrades that make the rest of the sweep faster.
Unlock Map Upgrades First
Spend Chipsets on the Exploration Markers gear upgrades. These reveal nearby collectibles on your map, turning a blind hunt into a checklist you can clear systematically.
Fast Travel to the Nearest Safe House
Open the map and fast travel to the point closest to Eden Village. Starting from the district edge lets you sweep in a single clockwise loop without backtracking.
Smash GridLeaks Along Parkour Lines
Run the marked GridLeak clusters without stopping. Each leak breaks when you pass through it, so chain them into one continuous line — speed keeps the sweep fun and fast.
Drop Into Interiors for Documents
After the run, revisit buildings with open vents and windows. Documents are almost always inside maintenance rooms and offices, not on rooftops.
Clean Up Chipsets and Runner Bags
Finish with the hardest perches. Use wall-run chains, coil jumps and MAG Rope swings to reach the awkward spots, then check district completion on the map before leaving.
Open the map and confirm the district completion indicator. If anything is missing, the map filter shows remaining collectible categories per district — filter to Eden Village and grab the stragglers.
Rewards and Completion Targets
Collecting in Eden Village feeds directly into several achievements and progression systems.
| Reward | Source | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Upgrade Chips | Chipsets spent in skill tree | Traversal, Combat, Gear branches |
| Gridunlocked (Silver) | Disable all GridLeak hubs across Glass | Eden Village clusters count toward it |
| District Completion % | All four collectible types | Feeds overall 100% stat |
| Story Log Entries | Documents | Lore on Glass and the Runner network |
Eden Village Completion Checklist:
- Smash every GridLeak cluster in the district
- Collect all hidden Documents from interiors
- Grab rooftop Chipsets at hard-to-reach perches
- Find every Runner Bag off the main path
- Confirm 100% district completion on the map
Early Chipsets are best spent on Quick Turn, Fast Climb and MAG Rope enhancements before anything else — these make every remaining collectible run in Glass noticeably faster.
