The Espresso quest is a quick errand with one catch: it must be done in a single round. The objective is simple—head into Buried City, find the café with the espresso machine, and salvage parts for Apollo. The only real friction is knowing exactly where to go and what you’re looking for.

Espresso quest summary

Detail Info
Vendor Apollo
Location Buried City
Core objective In one round: find an espresso machine to salvage for spare parts
Quest order Follows “Soaking Up The Sun,” precedes “Pied Piper”

Where to find the espresso machine (Buried City)

Go to the Plaza Rosa building in Buried City. It sits near the Southern Station extract. Look for a street‑level café entrance with a “Caffe Da Rosa” sign above the doorway. Inside, the espresso machine is on the counter—interact with it to salvage the parts.

Tip: signage can blend into the environment. If you’re at Plaza Rosa and near Southern Station, slow down and scan doorways for “Caffe Da Rosa.” The machine is not hidden behind a lock or puzzle; it’s right on the countertop once you’re inside.

Complete it in one round

“In one round” means the interaction and salvage must happen during a single raid. Pick up and track Espresso from Apollo, load into Buried City, head straight to Plaza Rosa, and interact with the machine. Avoid detours that could get you wiped; if you die and requeue, the condition resets.

If the objective doesn’t tick

  • Confirm you’re in Buried City and at Plaza Rosa near the Southern Station extract.
  • Enter the café with the “Caffe Da Rosa” sign; the machine is on the counter and must be interacted with.
  • Make sure the Espresso quest is actively tracked and that you haven’t left and re‑entered a new round mid‑objective.

What unlocks next

Espresso slots between two early tasks: it follows “Soaking Up The Sun” and leads into “Pied Piper.” Clearing it keeps Apollo’s line moving and opens the next step in the sequence.

Once you know the landmark, Espresso is a straightforward stop: Plaza Rosa, “Caffe Da Rosa” sign, machine on the counter, done in one raid. Get in, salvage for Apollo, and move on.
