Getting your hands on the Dr. Pepper can in Skate 3 isn't about grinding challenges or completing specific missions. It's about exploration, precision, and a bit of knowing where to look. Follow these steps, and you'll be chugging virtual soda in no time!
Step 1: Are You Ready for a Treasure Hunt?
First things first, before we even think about where to find the can, let's make sure you're geared up and ready for an adventure. Pop into Skate 3 and load up your favorite skater. Do you have a good sense of the maps, particularly Port Carverton? Familiarity with the different districts will be a huge advantage. If not, no worries! This guide will get you there.

Step 2: Navigating to the Right District
The Dr. Pepper can isn't just lying around anywhere. Its legendary location is nestled within a very specific part of the map.
2.1 Setting Your Destination: Industrial Area
Your primary target is the Industrial Area of Port Carverton. This district is known for its grimy aesthetics, warehouses, and, yes, hidden secrets!
How to Get There:
From the main menu, go to "Freak Out!" (or "Free Play" depending on your game version).
Select "Port Carverton."
Navigate through the district selection until you find the "Industrial Area." Confirm your selection.
2.2 Familiarizing Yourself with the Industrial Layout
Tip: Look for small cues in wording.
Once you've loaded into the Industrial Area, take a moment to look around. You'll see a lot of industrial buildings, shipping containers, and a general sense of urban decay. This is exactly where we want to be. The specific spot we're aiming for is quite distinct.
Step 3: Pinpointing the Exact Location
This is where the precision comes in. The Dr. Pepper can isn't out in the open; it's tucked away in a very specific, somewhat obscure spot.
3.1 Finding the "Cougar" Building
Your objective is to find a particular building within the Industrial Area. This building is often referred to by players as the "Cougar" building. Why "Cougar"? Because there's often a large, somewhat faded "Cougar" logo or sign on it. It might also have some graffiti.
Visual Cues: Look for a large, somewhat rectangular warehouse-style building. It often has a loading dock area or a series of ramps leading up to it. The "Cougar" marking is the key identifier. Don't confuse it with other generic warehouses!
3.2 The Hidden Nook: Behind the Building
Once you've located the "Cougar" building, you're almost there! The Dr. Pepper can isn't inside the building, nor is it directly in front of it. It's actually hidden behind it.
Maneuvering Your Skater: Skate around to the back of the "Cougar" building. You might need to go down a small alleyway or ramp to get to the rear section.
The Secret Spot: Look for a small, somewhat secluded alcove or a stack of boxes. The Dr. Pepper can is often nestled right in between some of these objects or tucked away in a corner where it's not immediately obvious. It's a classic red Dr. Pepper can, so it should stand out a bit against the drab industrial background.
Step 4: The Moment of Truth - Grabbing the Can!
Once you spot it, it's pretty straightforward.
Tip: Reread tricky sentences for clarity.
4.1 Approaching the Can
Simply skate or walk your character up to the Dr. Pepper can.
4.2 Interacting with the Can
As you get close, you'll see a prompt appear on your screen, usually indicating that you can "Pick Up" or "Collect" the object. This prompt might vary slightly depending on your platform (Xbox, PlayStation).
Press the Designated Button: Follow the on-screen prompt and press the corresponding button (e.g., 'A' on Xbox, 'X' on PlayStation).
4.3 Confirmation and Celebration!
If successful, you'll see a notification confirming that you've collected the Dr. Pepper can. Congratulations! You've now acquired one of Skate 3's most iconic and subtly placed collectibles. You might even hear a little "ding" sound effect to signify your success.
