| 2016 · Hauptkampagne / Main campaign | Windows, PlayStation 4, Xbox One | Main campaign for Emily or Corvo. Randomized codes must be retrieved from your own playthrough. |
1 · A Long Day in Dunwall
After the coup, choose Emily or Corvo. Leave the locked room through the window and cross the ledge into the next room to get your sword. Mortimer Ramsey has the signet ring that opens the hidden safe room. Wait until he separates from the guards, incapacitate him, take the ring and lock him in the safe room.
Collect your equipment and leave through the safe-room exit. Follow the roofs and ledges toward the harbor. Galvani’s safe opens with 451. At the docks, swim to the Dreadful Wale.
2 · Edge of the World
Accept the Outsider’s Mark or take the no-powers route. In Karnaca, head for Addermire Station. Bypass the Wall of Light through a building or window. Alternatively, cut its power at the windmill.
Mindy Blanchard waits near the black market. Bring her the body she requests from the Overseer outpost. She arranges to cut power to the railway, opening a route on foot to the station. Moving a body that was already dead does not count as your kill.
For optional loot, visit the Overseer outpost safe, the Winslow display safe and the bloodfly-infested building with the black market key. Board the carriage to Addermire Institute afterward.
3 · The Good Doctor
Enter the institute through its lobby and upper floors. Search Hypatia’s office for the lead to the janitor Hamilton, then follow the trail to Vasco in the recuperation area. He explains how to save Hypatia and gives you his safe combination. If Vasco dies, the clue is on his body.
Open Vasco’s safe and read his notes. Use the syringe to draw blood from an infested corpse. Heat the serum in Vasco’s lab. Sneak up on Grim Alex and administer the antidote. Disable the watchtower so Meagan can reach the landing.
4 · The Clockwork Mansion
Ride from Lower Aventa to Upper Aventa. To proceed along the carriage line, get the gate code from the upper floor of the guard office. The broken path at the end of the street gives you another approach to the mansion.
Inside the mansion, the first configuration lever announces your arrival. For a quiet route, look for the ceiling opening and the spaces behind the moving walls. Clockwork Soldiers can see forward and backward. Watch them from side alcoves.
Incapacitate Jindosh and put him in the electroshock chair in his laboratory. Set Anatomy and Optics at the two consoles and activate the device. Sokolov is in the Assessment Chamber. Watch the Clockwork Soldier and the floor plates, reach his cell and carry him to the carriage. Return to Meagan’s skiff from Lower Aventa.
5 · The Royal Conservatory
In Cyria Gardens, the hidden Overseer post and its audiograph explain Breanna Ashworth’s work. The black market dealer’s contact offers another route into the Conservatory. The dealer also sells the safe combination for the infested lecture hall.
Find the old lens assembly in Ashworth’s workshop. Swap the Oraculum’s lenses for the flawed ones and activate the machine. This cuts Ashworth off from the Void and lets you eliminate her without a kill.
Search the archives for the lead about Delilah’s plans. Return to Meagan’s skiff when the objective is complete.
6 · Dust District
Pass the checkpoint at the Wall of Light and meet Meagan. Stilton’s gate is in the neutral part of the district. You can bypass both factions by solving the Jindosh Riddle directly.
For a written solution, get the key to Durante’s room from the Overseer outpost and read the note in his room at the Crone’s Hand Saloon. Alternatively, deliver an incapacitated leader to the opposing side. You can also place both Paolo and Byrne, alive, in the transport crates at the Modotti studio.
To open the black market’s storage, find the note and calendar in the apartment above the shop. The combination starts with 4 and ends with the marked day.
7 · A Crack in the Slab
Find Stilton in the present and receive the Timepiece. Check its preview before shifting. Avoid guards in the past by moving to the present, and bypass rubble by shifting briefly into the intact mansion.
In the dining room, shift from the present to the past while under the table to steal the Master Key from a guard. In the courtyard of the past, Stilton has the study-door note. For a better present, incapacitate Stilton so that he misses the ritual. If you leave him alone, the manor stays ruined.
Open the study in the past with the code from the note. In an altered present, breaking through the boards can offer another way in. Watch the ritual and leave the manor. The boiler room also contains safe 238.
8 · The Grand Palace
Cross Ravina Boulevard toward the palace. One route uses the deactivated carriage line. The rocks, roofs and terraces near the building offer alternatives to the guarded front approach.
Duke Luca Abele and his double appear in different rooms across runs. The double smokes cigars. The real Duke carries the vault key. Speak to the double in private, incapacitate the real Duke and put him in his bed so the substitution can take place.
Take the vault key and head to the vault. A concealed passage leads through the pantry by the kitchen. Retrieve Delilah’s spirit and meet Meagan at the lower dock.
9 · Death to the Empress
Return to Dunwall and reach the tower. Pipes and high routes bypass witches and Clockwork Soldiers. To power the elevator, fill a whale-oil tank in the security room and place it in the empty third receptacle.
For a non-lethal finish, use dried algae, pigment and human bone to craft a corrupt rune in the chapel. Use the Heart on Delilah to make her vulnerable. Once she flees into the painting, slot the rune into the real throne and follow her through the canvas.
The figure at the throne inside the painting is a decoy. Find the real Delilah on the rocks above the entrance. Incapacitate her, carry her out of the painting and place her on the real throne. Then decide whether to free your petrified family member.
Chaos, rule in Karnaca and the ending
Story details & possible consequences
Chaos shapes the tone of the epilogue. The specific ruling arrangements also depend on your choices about Paolo, Byrne, and the Duke and his double. For a comparatively peaceful outcome, incapacitate Stilton, have the double replace the Duke, trap Delilah in her painting and free your petrified family member.
Check detections and kills separately at the end of each mission. The Heart locates runes and bone charms. Paintings, blueprints and cabin souvenirs are separate collectibles in the missions.
