Detroit: Sarif manufacturing and the hostages

After the playable attack and Jensen’s return to Sarif, head promptly to Malik on the roof. If you delay departure too long, the hostages at the plant die. Choose gear from Sarif that suits your approach. A tranquilizer weapon helps on a low-kill run.

The plant offers roof and vent routes. In assembly, disable the bomb with 1505 to rescue the hostages. Secure them before retrieving the Typhoon prototype. In the office, Zeke Sanders holds Josie hostage. Try to talk him into releasing her if you want both to survive. Return by helicopter.

Detroit: police station, Derelict Row and FEMA

Visit the L.I.M.B. clinic if needed. Reach the attacker’s body in the police station by persuading Wayne Haas or by using the fire escape or the sewers. Retrieve the neural hub in the morgue and advance the investigation at your own computer.

In Derelict Row, find the antenna and stop the transmission. Work along side routes and between floors. At Highland Park, the trail leads to the FEMA facility. In the Director’s Cut, Barrett’s arena has additional routes. The storage room in his arena uses 3971. Return to Sarif afterward.

Hengsha: the hacker and Tai Yong Medical

Go to Hengsha Court Gardens and search Van Bruggen’s penthouse. Belltower occupies the building. Use side entrances and vents to avoid the patrols. At the Hive, learn how to reach Van Bruggen. He is hiding in the Alice Garden Pods.

Belltower attacks after the conversation in the pods. Give Van Bruggen a weapon before you escape if you want him to survive. Use the authorized route and maintenance access to reach Tai Yong Medical. Look for proof in the data core. The hangar and its controls get you back to Malik.

Montréal: Picus and Eliza Cassan

In the Picus studios, follow the trail to the broadcast area. Mercenaries arrive after the encounter with Eliza. Let patrols pass across the open studio floors, then use side doors or vents. The server room uses 8825, and the news-room exit uses 1113.

Follow the lift route into the basement. In the Director’s Cut, there are extra routes and security systems in the Yelena Fedorova encounter. A separate panel in her arena uses 5945. During combat, use cover and watch where she reappears after attacking.

Detroit: Taggart and Sandoval

Talk to Sarif on your return. At the Humanity Front gathering, follow the lead to Sandoval either by talking to Taggart or by getting information backstage. If you want to do it in dialogue, approach Taggart onstage and challenge his inconsistencies.

Follow Sandoval into the sewers. The laser grid uses 8218. When he is ready to shoot himself, steer the conversation away from his immediate despair. The exit after the encounter uses 0110. Finish remaining Detroit side missions before Malik flies you back to Hengsha.

Hengsha: Malik, Harvesters and the port

At the ambush, you can fight to save Malik or leave the area. To save her, act quickly because the attackers are firing at the helicopter. Take out the most dangerous shooters and use EMP on the combat robot. Its explosion can kill people nearby.

Find Sevchenko’s tracking signal in the city and talk to Tong at the Harvester base. The clinic’s replacement biochip is optional on the way to the port. Skip it if you want to retain your augmentations in the Namir encounter. Follow the cargo-area objective and enter the shipping capsule to continue.

The Missing Link: Hei Zhen Zhu

In the Director’s Cut, The Missing Link appears between the second Hengsha visit and Singapore. Jensen begins aboard the ship without direct access to his gear. After the cell, follow the lead to the hidden stash and recover your belongings. Use vents and side rooms to avoid checkpoints aboard the ship.

Reach communications and complete the ship objectives before docking at Rifleman Bank Station. Keep saves before leaving the cell and the ship so you can return for optional objectives.

The Missing Link: Rifleman Bank Station

Speak to Keitner and Quinn. Investigate the detention area, then use Burke’s spare eye and Quinn’s help to reach the hidden elevator. In the research lab, find Dr. Tiffany Kavanagh.

On the way back, the gas countdown starts. You can save both groups by destroying the hidden gas valve in Detention Block B instead of choosing a destination for the gas. Then use the terminal to open their respective escape routes. Go back through the base, stop Burke in the loading bay and follow Quinn to depart.

Singapore: Omega Ranch and Namir

Find the researchers in the Omega Ranch buildings. Get the clearances and follow the diversion plan before looking for Megan. Use side corridors and vents to move between the secured lab areas. Megan Reed’s office safe uses 9273.

Namir attacks in the secured area. The optional replacement biochip restricts your abilities here if you accepted it in Hengsha. In the Director’s Cut, 1991 opens an arena panel. After the fight, follow the evacuation route.
