Gaining access to Barko’s Pet Store is pretty simple, but you’ll have to enter a different building to get the key. Follow the guide below to find out exactly where to go.
Where to Find the Barko’s Pet Store Key
Barko’s Key Location
Before you can enter Barko’s Pet Store, you’ll have to make your way to the Ruston Coffee shop at the north end of the downtown Seattle map. It’s located at the intersection of Spring Street and 5th Ave.
The doors to the coffee shop are locked, so you’ll have to smash the windows with a bottle, brick, or melee weapon to climb in. Once inside, head to the back of the building and into the restrooms.
There’s an infected waiting for you in one of the stalls, so be ready for a bit of a jump scare. It’s not a Clicker, so there’s no need to worry too much. After the infected is dealt with, you can grab the key at the back of the room.
How to Get the Long Gun Holster
After you’ve grabbed Barko’s key, you can finally return to the pet store to claim the long gun holster inside. There’s a bunch of supplies in this makeshift hideout, but the holster can be found in the back room on a desk.
The holster looks like a small leather belt. There’s a bright yellow icon above it, so it’s honestly hard to miss at this point.
The long gun holster allows you to quickly swap between long weapons like shotguns and rifles without having to hold down the square button. You’ll be able to hit left on the d-pad twice to swap weapons in no time at all. Also, quick swapping with “R1” will now cycle through three weapons instead of just two.
