Out of the many sets of collectibles available for players to find in the world of Horizon Forbidden West, the Black Boxes offer an extra bit of lore. These are the last recordings of the soldiers who fought off the Faro Plague in order to give Zero Dawn enough time to make GAIA fully operable. Players can find the collector, Untalla, for these Black Boxes at The Memorial Grove in Tenakth lands.

No Man's Land Black Box

This first black box can be found No Man's Land near the top of the closest clifftop. It'll be in the top half of a plane behind a powered door. Aloy will need to pry the door open in order to find the Black Box and a green level crate.

The Whitewatch Peaks Black Box

Southwest of Plainsong, players can find this Black Box up the top of a small cliff. It'll be in a cramped corner filled with debris. Players will need to use the Pullcaster to access this Black Box.

Jagged Deep Black Box

Players cannot access this one until they receive the Rebreather from Poseidon's main quest. It's underwater in the far southern end of the neutral lands covered by the Utaru. Pry the door open in order to reach the Black Box.

Promontory Black Box

Northeast of Plainsong, players can find this Black Box locked behind the Metal Flower's vines. To open up this area, players will need to gain the Vine Cutter from the main quest Seeds of the Past. Players will need to find an energy cell in the grass to power the upper cabin area of the shredded plane.

Bleeding Mark Black Box

The Memorial Grove Black Box

The Memorial Grove is introduced near the middle of the main story, and players gain access to a lot of trade and interesting characters over time through exploring and communicating. At the underside of the tail end of the plane, players can use the Pullcaster to pull themselves inside. It'll be just past the door Aloy can pry.

Salt Bite Black Box

In the small encampment of Salt Bite, players can find this Black Box, hidden within one of the structures. It'll be in a plane cabin that has been turned into a shelter. Aloy will need to open the vent at the far back part of the interior. Once done, players will find the Black Box among several other Legendary level supplies.
