Crime Scene Cleaner: How to Find Cassettes and Make a Playlist

Collect cassettes during missions

Pick up audio cassettes found during missions to add music to the collection. The developer’s March 2024 music guide describes a small starting library that expands as more cassettes are found. [1]

A short library at the beginning is expected. Finding additional cassettes is the documented way to expand it. [1]

Steps

1. Pick up discovered audio cassettes while playing missions. [1]

Use the tablet to check discovered and missing music

The music collection is browsed from its own tablet tab. [1]

The tablet includes discovered and undiscovered soundtracks and lists the location where each one is hidden. Consult that location entry when choosing where to look for a missing cassette, rather than expecting every cassette to appear in the same mission. [1]

Steps

1. Open the soundtrack collection on the tablet and inspect the missing track’s listed location. [1]

Sort the collection to find the music you want

Tracks are sorted by their discovery location by default. You can change the sort to title or genre when you know the song or style you want to hear. [1]

Steps

1. Change the track sort to title or genre if that makes the desired songs easier to find. [1]

Select songs and start the playlist

Select the songs for your custom playlist, then press play to hear them in sequence. The developer also says playback does not disturb key story moments. [1]

The music feature accounts for key plot moments, so the source does not require a separate manual muting routine for the story. [1]

Steps

1. Select the tracks you want in the playlist and press the play button. [1]

Expect the library to grow with content updates

The released October 2025 Communiti update adds seven more music tracks. The track count in a later game build can therefore exceed the collection described by the original pre-release music article. [2]
