Walkthrough
- 1As soon as you gain control, defeat the initial Zombies with your shotgun.
- 2Proceed through the door and follow the Glory Kill tutorial on the glowing Zombie.
- 3Head left, dealing with any Zombies on the stairs.
- 4At the bottom of the stairs, pick up the Chainsaw. You will be teleported to a tutorial area. Use the Chainsaw on Zombies and be mindful of the explosive barrel.
- 5Run through the area, find the glowing green symbol on a large block, and press R3 to Melee attack it for a double jump tutorial.
- 6Double jump up the block into the ceiling, turn right, grab health and armor, then interact with the blue glowing weapon Mod-Station. Select a mod and proceed through the opened door.
- 7Shoot the enemies in the next room without using the mod, then Melee the glowing green door.
- 8In the next combat area, defeat the Soldier and Imp enemies. Keep moving, use Glory Kills for health, and the Chainsaw for ammo. Utilize the blue columns to reach the upper level and explosive barrels for groups of enemies.
- 9Proceed towards the Demon Priest: Deag Nilox. Look for glowing green lights and head through the door. Grab the book on fire to get the 'Hell Barges' Codex entry. Approach the door and press R3 to watch a scene.
- 10After the scene, head forward to grab the second Codex entry. Climb up, use the Mod-Station if desired, and grab armor. Approach the glowing green cracked wall and Melee it after the Objective Marker tutorial.
- 11On the other side, look up and double jump to the floor above. Cross the hole to enter a Secret Area. Walk into the giant Question Mark to get the Doomslayer toy.
- 12Drop back down, kill the Zombies using red barrels and shotgun shells. If you drop to the bottom, fight Soldiers and Zombies. Go up the cliff on the right, move up the hill, grab shield shards, and double jump to collide with the hanging bar to swing across.
- 13In the next area, after dropping down, defeat the smaller enemies first, then focus on the Arachnotron. Its weak point is its tail. Use the environment (blue columns, bars, multi-leveled terrain) to your advantage. Grab ammo, fuel, and health. Use Glory Finishers and your mod.
- 14Jump up ledges and pass through the archway. Interact with the glowing green Heavy Cannon weapon for a tutorial.
- 15Jump through the archway on your left and interact with the Automap Station. Grab health and ammo behind the nearby column.
- 16Head towards the doors, which will trigger a checkpoint and open.
- 17Defeat the slow-moving Zombies on the other side, aiming for headshots for Glory Kills.
- 18In the next area, climb the collapsed bell, double jump up the ledge, turn 180 degrees, and double jump across the gap to grab a full armor icon.
- 19Drop down and head toward the opening. Clear enemies, then climb the collapsed vehicle on the left to reach the upper level of the building.
- 20Kill the Soldier and Imp inside. Walk forward carefully, look for a cracked wall on your left, and Melee it to enter another secret area. Drop down and grab the Imp Toy.
- 21Exit the building through the now-opened bars. Head right and then left around the building to kill a Soldier and Imp and collect fuel.
- 22You can either drop down or re-enter the building and take the green-lit pathways up a ledge.
- 23If you take the high road, kill the Soldiers and Imps. Before dropping down, exit onto the ledge through the shattered window on your right to grab health and ammo.
- 24Look to the right; a part of the floor near the window extends towards the gap. Cross this section.
