Complete walkthrough for the 52 Pickup mission in X-Men Origins: Wolverine, including Gambit fight strategies and collectible locations.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Capture Gambit and discover the location of the Island.
  2. 2
    Follow Gambit to the Upper Atrium.
  3. 3
    Find Gambit on the exterior of the Corbeau Casino.
  4. 4
    Catch a ride on the helicopter.
  5. 5
    Follow Gambit to the Crane.
  6. 6
    To defeat Gambit, keep your distance and deflect his ranged card attacks. A successful deflection stuns him, allowing for a lunge attack. Follow up with a Fury attack for extra damage.
  7. 7
    When Gambit leaps to the platforms in the background, be prepared for a barrage of ranged attacks. Deflect one and lunge to his position. Rapidly press Square (light attack) to bash his head into the wall. Repeat this sequence on both platforms.
  8. 8
    After Gambit leaves the balcony, continue the fight on the lower ground as you did on the upper level.
  9. 9
    When Gambit leaps to the platform in front of the window, deflect an energy attack and lunge at him to trigger a cinematic.
  10. 10
    Rapidly press the on-screen button to lift Wolverine off the statue before it explodes.
  11. 11
    Grab the Health Boost and head up the stairs.
  12. 12
    After the cinematic with Gambit fleeing, pick up the Dog Tags to the left.
  13. 13
    Defeat the numerous enemies, including Goliaths, guards, and Ghosts.
  14. 14
    Push the large block over to the scaffolding with the rope dangling above and climb the rope.
  15. 15
    Leap across the gap in the platforms, then double jump to the rope leading to the balcony.
  16. 16
    Move to the right side of the balcony for Dog Tags.
  17. 17
    Kick in the door to the left and move down the hall. Destroy the door at the end of the hall to enter the next area.
  18. 18
    Pick up the Dog Tags on the right, then defeat the guards and Ghosts.
  19. 19
    Grab the Dog Tags at the base of the stairs and go up.
  20. 20
    The cinematic at the top of the stairs introduces the Assassin. Assassins cannot be quick killed on the first try unless some damage is done first. They attack with dual-edged blades and are quick, but susceptible to rage attacks and counters. A quick kill is available if they are weakened first.
  21. 21
    Grab the Blood Rage Mutagen from the room on the right before kicking down the main door.
  22. 22
    Defeat all enemies, including Weapon X grunts and Gambit's Assassins, as Gambit flees up an elevator.
  23. 23
    Pick up the Dog Tags up the stairs to the right.
  24. 24
    Grab the Health Boost behind the water fountain.
  25. 25
    Push the large block under the scaffolding and jump up.
  26. 26
    Defeat the guards and two Grenadiers to the left.
  27. 27
    Move across the rope to the distant balcony for Dog Tags, then back to the platform between the giant statues.
  28. 28
    From the platform, lunge at the enemy inside the elevator.
  29. 29
    Use the room to Wolverine's left to get Dog Tags.
  30. 30
    Move past the elevators and get the Health Boost on the scaffolding.
  31. 31
    Walk across the beam in front of the elevators to reach the other side.
  32. 32
    Defeat the two Assassins and continue to pursue Gambit.
  33. 33
    Once up the stairs where Gambit was last seen, a helicopter attacks. Pick up the Dog Tags on the left side.
  34. 34
    Ignoring the helicopter, use the platforms in front of the window to gain height.
  35. 35
    Once at the top, the helicopter will begin firing missiles and enter the building. Run away as the ground below is destroyed. Jumping over obstacles can assist Wolverine's departure.
  36. 36
    Once through the window, a new objective is received.
  37. 37
    Kick in the door and fight off the three Assassins.

    On the other side of the roof is a set of Dog Tags.
  41. 41
    Return to the ladder and pass it. Climb the wall behind the wooden platform.

    Continue forward, and Wolverine will meet back up with Gambit.
  45. 45
    Stand at the top and deflect Gambit's ranged attacks for a couple of cheap blows.
  46. 46
    Jump down and continue the fight. When Gambit is at a distance, deflect his ranged attacks. When he uses his staff, try to counter and keep on the offensive.
  47. 47
    When Gambit's health depletes enough, he will energize the bridge, destroying it. Balance across the beams to continue the pursuit.
  48. 48
    Climb the crates to the left and move around the building, defeating enemies.
  49. 49
    Climb the rope at the end of the path.
  50. 50
    At the top of the rope, climb the wall to reach an Action Figure.
  51. 51

Tips
  • When fighting Gambit, deflecting his ranged attacks is key to creating openings for your own attacks.
  • Assassins are best dealt with using rage attacks and counters, or by weakening them first for a quick kill.
  • During the helicopter attack, focus on evasion and using the environment to your advantage.
  • Use the environment to your advantage when fighting in tight spaces or on precarious platforms.
