Since his first appearance in Season 19 of Destiny 2, Archie has been the adorable robot dog mascot of the Tower. While he could originally be found hanging out in the H.E.L.M., he is now located in the Tower Annex outside the area where Ada-1 set up shop. Aside from starring in last year's series of Festival of the Lost lore cards, Archie has mostly just been chilling in the Tower and getting pets from players.

During Into the Light, Archie gets a series of quests all about him. This time-gated series of quests will have you searching for the robotic canine, and here is where he can be found, along with how to start the quest.

How to Start "Where in the System is Archie?"

While some quests will appear on the map, "Where in the Tower is Archie?" Doesn't. Instead, this is a secret quest that can be started by going to the spot in the Tower where he can normally be found. Rather than seeing Archie, you will spot a series of glowing paw prints. Examining them unlocks the quest, which is started by talking to Ada-1.

Ada-1 will help you begin your search by telling you that Archie was interested in noodles. Go to the Tower Bazaar and look for the Spicy Ramen Shop. Inside the small shop, you will see another set of glowing paw prints. Once you examine them, the quest will update and will give you the next hint. To progress the quest, go to the Ironwood Tree and approach Cayde-6's monument. Interact with the paw prints again to get your next clue.

Go to the Hangar where Cayde-6 used to be located back during the first year of Destiny 2. The next quest step indicates that Archie is stuck, and he's in an area of the Hangar that is not easy to find.

First, head to the flight of stairs depicted in the image above. Go all the way to the top and then go across the walkway. On the other side, you will see another platform. Carefully jump down onto the ledge below and then jump across to reach it. Go up the stairs and head through the duct. Turn right to spot an area you can jump up into. Drop into the room, turn left, and go into the hallway. Drop down into the duct and turn right.

At the end of the duct, jump up to enter another room and then turn left to find Archie. Interact with him to get the next quest objective, which is to talk to Ada-1 and receive your reward. In addition to getting 10 Trophies of Bravery, you also get an Expired Ramen Coupon. Don't forget to claim the Triumph you unlock at this point, as you also get the Blue Steel shader and a Bungie Rewards code for a plushie of Archie.

There are several more quests involving finding Archie in other parts of the Solar System, but they were not available at the time of writing. This article will be updated once they unlock.
