In addition to regular loot, many agents hunt for so-called Backpack Trophies in The Division 2. In this guide, we introduce new pendants that have been added to the game with Title Update 5 and the “Episode 1” DLC. We also show you the locations where you can find these collectibles.
What are Backpack Trophies? They are purely cosmetic pendants that your agent can wear on their backpack. These trophies are often well hidden in the game world or awarded for specific achievements, making them a sought-after means of individualization for many agents.
These Backpack Trophies are new: The Title Update 5 and the “Episode 1” DLC recently brought new content to The Division 2, including 5 new backpack pendants.
You can obtain these within the Expeditions at the Kenly College site as well as in the two new classified assignments. Where exactly – you can find out here.
The new Backpack Trophies from the Expeditions at Kenly College
Three of the new trophies can be found in the respective wings of the Kenly College. These can be found and collected by all players. Please note that you have to start a mission in the respective wing to obtain the new backpack pendants.

How to find the Baby Barrel Trophy in the Kenly Library
The Kenly Library was the first of a total of three expedition sections that went live for players. There you can snag the Baby Barrel Trophy.
To do this, you need to shoot a yellow control box near the supply room in the Octagon in a still locked room. Once this is destroyed, the door to this room opens. On the table, you’ll find a large barrel. Right next to it, you can search the table. If you do this, you will receive this new backpack pendant. You can see the exact location and process in this video:
How to find the Mushroom Friend Trophy in the Kenly Subway Station
In the second expedition section, you will receive the mushroom pendant for your backpack. Deep within the tunnels of the subway station, there is a spot where mushrooms grow from the ground. If you search the area there, you will find this new trophy. The location can be easily overlooked. So just follow the agent’s route in this video:
How to find the Throwback Tommy Trophy in the Kenly Student Union
The third and final backpack trophy from Kenly College can be found in the Kenly Student Union. There you need to search a side table next to a sofa in a cozy reading nook. There you’ll get the teddy for your backpack. Follow the agent’s path in the video:
The new Backpack Trophies from the Classified Assignments
The other two trophies can be found in the new Classified Assignments Central Aquarium and NSA Site B13. However, these missions are only available to Year 1 Pass holders. Accordingly, not all agents can collect these two Backpack Trophies.
You need to start the missions, and the trophies can only be obtained during them. They are marked in blue on the map.
How to find the Sushi Trophy in the Central Aquarium
To obtain the Sushi Trophy, it is important to search the body of a dead civilian during the mission. There you will find a key for the upper laboratory that you need for the pendant. This will allow you to enter the otherwise locked room where the new trophy is located. You can see the exact process and route here:
How to find the Pizza Trophy in NSA Site B13
The Pizza Pendant is located in a massive underground NSA complex – right near the crash site of Air Force One. In the server room, you walk across a bridge in a kind of cave with a large fan in the rock wall. You need to deactivate this. Afterwards, you will access an office through the ventilation shaft behind it, where you will receive the new pendant. You can see how this works in detail here:
Do you also enjoy hunting for the backpack pendants? Or do you find such cosmetic trinkets uninteresting?
