Jungle, Military Facility and Dylan

As Dylan, cut vines away from doors with the machete. Follow the jungle paths to the Military Facility, collect the files at the save point and by the entrance, then search the lab until the keycard scene. The trap separates Dylan from Regina.

As Regina, open powered doors with the Stun Gun. Take the card near Dylan’s cell, exchange it at the blue position in the card room and release him. The Patrol Ship lets you choose destinations, buy equipment and save. Secondary weapons open routes and can save ammunition.

Research Facility and stolen card

Start for the Research Facility from the jungle. Clear the entrance as Dylan and open the gates at the green panels. A compy steals the yellow card at the reader. Close its vent escapes at the switches and drive it into the cage. Recover the card to reach the Third Energy Facility.

The dock access card is back in the jungle. Follow the marker to the waterfall and inspect the leaf in the water. Bring the card to the dock and search the control room.

Docks, underwater reactor and Mosasaurus

Take the Box Key from the control room and open the lit Patrol Ship compartment for the current elevator password. Get the mechanic’s ID from the body in upper Goods Storage. Use the ID and password on the elevator, restore power with the Stun Gun and collect the diving suit.

Underwater, use the Aqua Grenade on the damaged door. Pull the lever beyond, take the Shutter Plug from the raised walkway and insert it in the service area. Use the east elevator to find the Edward City Card Key by the body. Move out of the Mosasaurus’s approach and fire after it attacks. The red platforms lead to the switch for the return lift.

Areaway, Edward City and gas mask

Clear the way with Dylan’s machete. Blast the blocked door with a powerful weapon and follow the floor markings. Keep moving in the two-character sequence, then use the mounted gun in the vehicle chase. In Edward City, the Residence Key from Robson’s Store opens the locked route.

Drive through the tank segment to the far side and take the gas mask. Return to the jungle on the Patrol Ship. The mask lets you reach the Poison Zone ladder down to the Missile Silo.

Missile Silo, Paula and finale

Story details & possible consequences

Retrieve the Third Energy Data Disc from the lower control room terminal. Lure the giant dinosaur toward the gas vents and ignite the clouds with the Stun Gun. Use the bridge panel upstairs and strike the switches as they turn red. Ride the elevator up, open the missile cover from the panel and stop the warhead at the missile.

Keep dinosaurs away from David with the mounted gun while he works. Protect Paula on the way to the Habitat Support Facility and use all four colored switches in the laser corridor. In the final battle, activate the outer panels first, then the main satellite console. Keep moving between the panels and leave after the sequence.

All eleven Dino Files

1 Velociraptor: jungle save room. 2 T. rex: Military Facility entrance. 3 Allosaurus: body by the jungle entrance. 4 Compsognathus: large service area in the Research Facility. 5 Pteranodon: by the truck at the Third Energy Facility. 6 Mosasaurus: facility control room near the Box Key.

7 Plesiosaurus: by the route to the body in the east underwater area. 8 Inostrancevia: Areaway entrance. 9 Triceratops: last service point before the vehicle sequence. 10 Oviraptor: body by the jeep in Edward City. 11 Gigantosaurus: near the Third Energy Data Disc terminal in the silo. Pick up files on your first visit, especially before character switches.

Which Dino Files do I need for unlimited ammo?Dino Crisis 2 · PlayStation (2000)

The EPS Platinum Card requires all eleven Dino Files and a saved campaign clear. The card becomes available when you start another run from that clear data.

  1. Early on, check the Water Tower Save Shop, the Military Facility entrance, the body at the Suspension Bridge and the Research Lounge. These hold the Velociraptor, T. rex, Allosaurus and Compsognathus files.
  2. At the Third Energy Facility, look under the wrecked dock truck for Pteranodon, in the control room for Mosasaurus, and near the dead diver in the cooling aqueduct for Plesiosaurus.
  3. Find Inostrancevia on the City Front Haul Road, Triceratops in the Materials Yard after the Allosaurus nest, and Oviraptor by the wrecked Jeep in the Living Quarters.
  4. The Giganotosaurus file is in the Missile Silo Data Control Room. Check your collection there before heading into the finale.
