Destiny: Rise of Iron Dead Ghosts

How to find missing Dead Ghosts?: In-game the Dead Ghosts will appear similar to your floating robot buddy Ghost, except lying still on the ground with their blue visor light still glowing. Their colors can vary from bright white and orange to completely black. You can pick up to collect it when you stand next to it. It can be confirmed as being Dead Ghosts simply by getting near it, as the on-screen text will then tell you can press and hold the Square button to “Awaken Dead Ghost” on PlayStation or the X button to “Revive Dead Ghost” on Xbox, to get the Ghost Fragment.

Bonus: Each revived dead ghost gives you a new story-telling Grimoire Card that also increase your Grimoire score by 5.

Tip: Fallen Ghosts can be picked up in free roam on ANY mission, such as Story Missions or free roam Patrol & Explore Missions.

Does the game save each Dead Ghosts you collect?: Yes, the game will automatically save the Dead Ghosts you just collected if you picked up the Dead Ghost, so you don’t have to play to the end of the mission. But it’s still recommended you do so to save your collectibles progress in case of an online server disconnect. – Once collected, these Dead Ghosts cannot be picked up again.
