Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Enter the elevation room and wait for it to fill with water.
  2. 2
    Proceed to the controls and wait for the order to "fire," then pull the right trigger.
  3. 3
    Gold: After regaining control of BJ, dive underwater. A gold trowel is on a rock at the start of the chapter.

    Enter Deathshead's compound. Collect all available ammo in the first area.
  5. 5
    Go up the stairs and kill the approaching Kampfhund.

    In the next area, the large room to your left contains Nazis.

    Enigma Code Piece: In the smaller room directly across from the entrance, find Enigma code piece 5:7 sticking out of a filing cabinet. This room also contains an armored Nazi.
  8. 8
    Engage the numerous Nazis and robots. Utilize grenades and explosives for efficiency.
  9. 9
    Gold: In the room with scaffolding and many enemies, a golden teapot is inside a wheelbarrow.

    Enigma Code Piece: Before opening the shutter, check the last bench in this area for an Enigma code piece.
  11. 11
    Enigma Code Piece: After opening the shutters and entering the lab, check the counters for the final Enigma code piece of the game.
  12. 12
    Once all enemies are eliminated, pull the lever and go through the shutter.
  13. 13
    Confront the robotic form of your sacrificed friend. Toss a grenade at its feet, then another where it hops. Quickly grab the brain from inside the robot by tapping X.
  14. 14
    Gold: Use the laser cutter to cut open crates around the area to find the golden pot.
  15. 15
    Confront Deathshead in his mech suit. Burn a hole in the large shield's fence with the laser cutter.

    Sprint to the right or left and blast Deathshead with the laser cutter to stun him.
  17. 17
    Reach the first rocket turret and aim it at the blimp in the sky. Shoot the blimp.
  18. 18
    Sprint to the opposite turret, distracting Deathshead with the laser cutter. Shoot the second blimp.
  19. 19
    Lay into Deathshead with your laser cutter. After an explosion, he will retreat. Gather any remaining supplies before following him down the hole.
  20. 20
    In the basement area, use all explosives (grenade launcher, grenades, laser cutter blast) and the Marksman Rifle's laser function on Deathshead.
  21. 21
    As the fight progresses and visibility decreases due to flames, continue dealing damage.
  22. 22
    When enough damage is dealt, approach Deathshead's mech. A scene will play, and you will be prompted to push the right analog stick to complete an assassination takedown.

  • Collect all available ammo, health, and armor to survive the encounters.
  • The laser cutter is a crucial tool for both stunning Deathshead and accessing items.
