47 – Eliminate the Target
- UAVs are the new enemies of this chapter. When entering a UAV’s line-of-sight, they target your position with missile strikes.
- Here’s how it works; you enter a UAV’s line-of-sight, and a red laser appears at the position the UAV saw Adam Jensen. For the next three turns, the UAV bombards the area with missiles. So – for the first turn, you’re safe.
- You also can’t destroy a UAV with a takedown. Instead of attacking it, entering it’s space causes the UAV to hover out of your path.
- For this stage, you’ll need to trick the upper UAV to destroy the walker blocking your path to the exit. Grab the Augment power-up, then use Cloak to stand right next to the upper UAV — that way it spots you and bombards the walker’s route, eventually destroying it.
- When the walker is down, you’re free to reach the exit.
- GOLD Guide:
- Left (1 space)
- Up (1 space) – Enter the UAV’s line-of-sight.
- Left (3 spaces) – The UAV will complete its bombardment and begin a second bombardment.
- Up (2 spaces) – Enter the upper UAV’s line-of-sight.
- Right (1 space)
- Up (1 space)
- Down (1 space) – The UAV will complete its initial bombardment and begin a second bombardment.
- Left (2 spaces) – Collect the Aug power-up here.
- Right (1 space) – The walker will block the UAV’s line-of-sight here. Before moving again, activate Cloak.
- Right (2 spaces) – Remember, activate cloak so the UAV doesn’t see you until you’re standing directly next to it.
- Left (1 space)
- Up (1 space) – The walker will step into the UAV’s bombardment zone and be destroyed here.
- Down (1 space)
- Right (1 space)
- Up (2 spaces)
- Right (1 space) – Exit!
48 – Secondary Target
- In this mission, we learn that UAVs can be hacked. This doesn’t turn them on your side — nope, it just makes them revolve in a certain direction. This can be helped, and we’re learn how to use that to our advantage here.
- Hack the UAV with the single hack tile and change its direction. This is the tricky part — run the hack pathway along the far-left to give yourself the most time before the EMP walker severs the connection. Check out the pic below to see how to run the hack pathway exactly.
- With that done, simply move up (and under) the UAV, then enter the upper walker’s route. If everything is timed properly, the UAV will begin bombarding the upper walker’s route, destroying it and clearing the path to the exit.
- GOLD Guide:
- Up (1 space)
- Right (3 spaces)
- Left (1 space) / Right (1 space)
- Left (1 space) / Right (1 space) – Hack the UAV using a very specific path. Run the hack pathway to the far left. Use the pic below for more details.
- Left (1 space) – Entering the UAV’s new line-of-sight.
- Up (2 spaces) – Step underneath the UAV.
- Right (1 space) / Left (1 space) – Waiting for the upper walker to get into position.
- Right (2 spaces) – The lower EMP walker will disable the hack now. The UAV should now target Adam Jensen while he’s standing on the upper walker’s route.
- Left (2 spaces) – The upper walker will step into the bombardment area and be destroyed.
- Right (2 spaces)
- Up (2 spaces)
- Right (1 space) – Exit!
49 – Surrounded
- The biggest problem in this stage is that UAV do not break line-of-sight. Trying to go toward the exit is impossible — the EMP walker will sever any hack connection.
- Here, we’re actually counting on the EMP walker to sever the connection. We need to disable the security tile before the titan shield guard traps Adam Jensen.
- Start by hacking the UAV, then immediately hack the lower security tile. Wait for the EMP walker to start moving up — that’s your chance. Move right, then up, then across the hacked security tile. If everything is lined-up, the EMP walker will stop the hack just as you cross the security tile.
- With the guard blocked, you can now hack the last security tile and escape. Use the detailed guide below for more tips.
- GOLD Guide:
- Right (2 spaces)
- Up (1 space) / Down (1 space) – Waiting for the EMP walker to stand in the right spot.
- Up (1 space) – Hack the UAV, then hack the lower security tile. Make sure the hack pathway goes directly right from the hack tile, and then up — don’t go up, and then right or the EMP walker will sever the connection too early. Use the image below for the exact hack pathway.
- Right (1 space)
- Up (1 space) – You’ll enter the guard’s line-of-sight here.
- Right (3 spaces) – The previous hack will be severed. Reach the second hack tile and hack the upper security tile.
- Left (1 space)
- Up (2 spaces)
- Right (1 space) – Exit!
50 – Time and Place
- This one is tough. You’ll need to destroy the lower EMP walker with the UAV’s missile strike attack. It’s all about timing — move to the upper hack tile and hack the security tile above (adjacent) to escape the missile bombardment.
- Wait until you can initiate a strike when the UAV is pointed right, with the red dot on the hack tile. Then move left and down to the lower hack tile. Hack that tile to turn the UAV down, where you’ll get spotted and the bombardment will destroy the EMP walker after two steps.
- Like we said, this one is complicated. It helps to turn the UAV down and destroy the upper EMP walker too, just to give Adam Jensen more room to move. Follow the step-by-step guide below to guarantee success.
- GOLD Guide:
- Up (1 space)
- Right (3 spaces) – You’ll enter the UAV’s line-of-sight. Hack the security tile directly above the hack tile.
- Up (1 space) / Down (1 space) – Hack the UAV so it points downward.
- Left (2 spaces)
- Down (1 space) – You’ll enter the hacked UAV’s line-of-sight. In two steps, the EMP walker will walk into the bombardment and be destroyed.
- Up (1 space)
- Right (2 spaces) – Hack the right-hand security tile this time.
- Left (2 spaces)
- Down (2 spaces) – Hack the UAV again so it points down — it will target your position again.
- Up (2 spaces) – The lower EMP walker will be destroyed by the missile bombardment.
- Down (2 spaces) – Finally, hack the left-hand security tile. The path to the exit should now be clear.
- Up (2 spaces)
- Right (1 space)
- Up (1 space)
- Right (3 spaces) – Exit!
51 – Shoot to Kill
- Surprise! The game drops another new power-up. Augment modules now have a third function — you can now Cloak, remotely hack, and SHOOT enemies. Collect the Aug power-up in the lower-right corner, activate it, then tap an enemy to blast them.
- Start with the guard blocking the path forward. Wait until he’s passive — not even an Aug power-up can kill a titan shield trooper.
- Next, move up and get the second power-up. Use it to shoot the left-hand (center of the three) EMP drone. Move to the hack tile, and wait for the EMP walker to stand two steps away from the top row. He needs to be at the bottom of his route.
- Use the hack pathway to touch the top of the EMP walker’s route before connecting to the revolving tile. Use the pic below for the exact hack pathway.
- This way, move Adam Jensen onto the revolving tile, and the EMP walker will break the hack, allowing you to continue left. Now you can safely get the power-up when the EMP walker isn’t stomping in your path. Shoot the walker, then takedown your way to the exit.
- GOLD Guide:
- Up (1 space) – Entering the guard’s line-of-sight.
- Right (1 space)
- Down (1 space)
- Right (2 spaces) – Collect the Aug power-up and activate it. Tap the lower guard to shoot him.
- Left (2 spaces)
- Up (1 space)
- Right (2 spaces)
- Up (1 space) – Collect the Aug power-up and activate it. Shoot the left-hand EMP drone. That’s the center drone.
- Left (1 space)
- Up (1 space) – Hack the revolving tile so that your hack pathway touches the top row of the EMP walker’s path. Use the image below for an exact map.
- Down (1 space)
- Left (1 space) – If the hack pathway is properly set, the EMP walker will disable the hack now.
- Left (1 space) / Right (1 space)
- Left (2 spaces)
- Up-Left (1 space) – Grab the Aug power-up and blast the EMP walker.
- Down (1 space)
- Up-Right (1 space)
- Right (1 space) – Smash the drone.
- Up (1 space)
- Right (1 space) – Here you’ll smash the EMP drone.
- Up (1 space)
- Right (2 spaces) – Takedown the final guard on the way to the exit.
52 – Automated Patrol
- Inching closer to the end, this puzzle makes life difficult. Instead of destroying the EMP walker, you’ll need to alter its patrol path multiple times.
- Hack the first revolving tile so the EMP walker moves right, then hack the lower-right revolving tile. Grab the Aug power-up and remotely hack the right-hand hack tile. This requires another very specific hack path. Use the image at the bottom for help.
- Next, grab the last Aug power-up and finally blast the EMP walker. The goal of this mission is to lead the EMP walker to the right-hand revolving tile so the walker cuts off the already-in-place hack.
- GOLD Guide:
- Right (1 space)
- Up (2 spaces) – Hack the lower-left revolving tile. Don’t place the hack pathway anywhere on the EMP walker’s patrol route!
- Down (1 space) / Up (1 space)
- Down (1 space) / Up (1 space) – The EMP walker will disable the revolving tile hack and change routes. Now hack the lower-right revolving tile.
- Down (1 space) / Up (1 space)
- Down (1 space) – The EMP walker will now disable the lower-right revolving tile hack.
- Up (1 space) – Hack the lower-left revolving tile again.
- Down (1 space) – The EMP walker will disable the upper-right revolving tile hack now.
- Down-Right (1 space)
- Down (1 space)
- Right (1 space) – Collect the Aug power-up here. Immediately use it to remotely hack — activate the right-most hack tile and follow the path illustrated in the image above.
- Right (1 space) / Left (1 space) / Right (1 space)
- Left (1 space) / Right (1 space) – The EMP walker will disable the lower-right revolving tile hack if you follow the hack pathway illustrated above.
- Up (1 space) / Down (1 space)
- Up (1 space) / Down (1 space)
- Up (2 spaces)
- Left (1 space) – Collect the Aug power-up and shoot the EMP walker here.
- Right (2 spaces)
- Down (2 spaces) – Exit!
53 – Stand Off
- This penultimate puzzle tests you with a roaming EMP drone and a difficult conundrum to solve. Start by getting the Aug power-up and using it to shoot the lower drone. Now you can safely reach the right-most hack tile.
- Hacking and the pathways you create are critical to completing this map. Check out the image beneath the Gold guide to see how you’ll want to setup both hack pathways.
- The trick of this mission is to establish a hack pathway that is severed just as Adam Jensen reaches the revolving tile. Use the step-by-step instructions below for a deeper look into this tough map.
- GOLD Guide:
- Right (2 spaces) – Hack the revolving tile — run the hack pathway under the drone so the EMP walker doesn’t sever the connection.
- Left (1 space)
- Up (2 spaces) – Collect the Aug power-up here.
- Right (1 space) / Left (1 space) / Right (1 space) / Left (1 space)
- Down (1 space)
- Right (1 space) – Activate the Aug power-up and shoot the lower drone.
- Right (1 space) – Takedown the remaining drone.
- Up (1 space)
- Right (1 space) – Hack the security tile — run the pathway through the exit tile. The revolving tile hack will get severed by the EMP walker here.
- Left (1 space
- Down (1 space)
- Left (1 space)
- Down (1 space) – Return to the hack tile but do not hack yet.
- Left (1 space) / Right (1 space) / Left (1 space) / Right (1 space)
- Left (1 space) / Right (1 space) – Finally, hack the revolving tile. Use the exact same hack pathway you used the first time — use the image below for a visual aid.
- Left (1 space)
- Up (2 spaces)
- Right (1 space) / Left (1 space)
- Right (1 space) – The EMP walker will disable the hack, moving Adam Jensen on the revolving tile.
- Up (1 space)
- Right (2 spaces) – Exit!
54 – Choice and Consequences
- There’s one final trick you’ll need to learn to complete this puzzle. Adam Jensen can use his own body to block line-of-sight of friendly turrets to preserve enemy walkers.
- Why? You’ll need to keep the walker alive to complete this last mission. No EMP this time, so the hack pathways won’t be nearly as important.
- Start by hacking the upper-right turret to sneak around and takedown the guard. Now you can collect the Augment power-up and return to the lower hack tile.
- Next, hack the lower-left turret.
- GOLD Guide:
- Up (1 space)
- Left (1 space) – Hack the upper-right turret.
- Right (2 spaces)
- Up (3 spaces)
- Down (1 space) / Up (1 space) – Waiting for the walker.
- Left (1 space) – Takedown the guard.
- Down (1 space) – Collect the Aug power-up.
- Right (1 space)
- Up (1 space) / Down (1 space) / Up (1 space)
- Down (3 spaces)
- Left (2 spaces) – Hack the lower-left turret.
- Up (1 space)
- Left (1 space)
- Down (1 space)
- Up-Left (1 space) – Now, remotely hack the lower-right hack tile and use it to activate the right-hand security tile.
- Left (1 space)
- Up (1 space) – Hack the left-hand security tile. That will trap the walker, blocking the enemy turret’s line-of-sight.
- Right (3 spaces)
- Up (1 space)
- Left (3 spaces) – Collect the Aug power-up. You now have a choice — use the gun to shoot Novak, or turn invisible and use a non-lethal takedown. The choice is up to you.
- Up (1 space) – Exit!
