TheDead Islandseries has always been pushing the fun factor of combat and exploration, dropping players into areas full of swarming and dangerous zombies while also teasing valuable rewards that are just around the corner.Dead Island 2definitely doesn’t stray from that formula, and it has certainly embraced its roots more, with plenty of lockboxes littered around Hell-A just waiting to be opened by the curious.
Of course, it is not always going to be that easy to gain access to the rewards that are usually valuable. Many of such locked containers require the right key to unlock their contents, and for those looking toopen up theParty Contraband Case with the Bouncer Key, this guide will cover everything required.

The location of this lockbox will reveal itself once players take on theside quest that is Ballad of Rikky Rex. This requires players tohead to the lavish mansion that Rikky called home in Beverly Hills, which is to the southeast corner of the map. Before players can head upstairs, they will have todeal with the undead members of the band, Gods and Whiskey, which includes a Walker, Runner,Crusher, and finally, aScreamer, not to mention hordes of other zombies.
Now that Rikky’s Kitchen Key is in possession, players can then head upstairs, eventuallyarriving at Rikky’s bedroom, which is made quite clear by the graffiti on the wall. While the side quest requires players to obtain the guitar known as Chopper, players can return after completing the quest andlook to the right of the closet, and in the corner will be the Party Contraband Case.
With the case still locked, the only way to open it up is tofind the right corresponding keyinDead Island 2. Thankfully, it is not that far of a distance to travel.Simply head back to Rikky’s houseonce the side quest has been turned in, andhead up to the pool area where the battle against Gods and Whiskey took place.
Now, there will be a named Crusher that will spawn, andeliminating this Party Bouncer will see the Bouncer’s Key dropfrom its now lifeless body. Grab those keys, head back upstairs to Rikky’s bedroom, andunlock the Party Contraband Case for a new weapon in the form of the Whispering Blade.
