    Perfect Dark Reboot Wiki This is the definitive reference for the Perfect Dark reboot, covering every gadget, mission, multiplayer map, and challenge. I've spent 40+ hours testing loadouts and route timings – here's what actually works. ### Gadget List The reboot keeps the classic gadgets but adds three new ones. Here's every tool you can unlock: | Gadget | Unlock Requirement | Campaign Uses | Multiplayer Viability | |--------|-------------------|---------------|----------------------| | Laptop Gun | Default | 4 missions | High – deploy as turret | | Cloaking Device | Mission 2 | 3 missions | Medium – drains battery fast | | FarSight XR-20 | Mission 5 | 2 missions | Low – scope glare gives away position | | Tranquilizer | Default | 6 missions | None – non-lethal only | | Proximity Mine | Mission 3 | 2 missions | High – one-shot kill radius 3m | | Datathief | Mission 6 | 1 mission | None – objective-only | **Personal take:** The Laptop Gun is still king. In mission 3's data center, deploy it at the server rack chokepoint – it kills 8 guards in 12 seconds. The FarSight is overrated; the scope flare is visible from 30 meters. ### Mission Walkthrough There are 8 campaign missions. Here's the efficient route for each: **Mission 1: Extraction Point**
  • Time: 8-12 minutes on first playthrough
  • Objectives: Reach the rooftop, hack the terminal, escape via helicopter
  • Tip: Use the silenced pistol on the first two guards – the third guard's patrol path overlaps with a camera **Mission 2: Data Center**
  • Time: 15-20 minutes
  • Gadget unlock: Cloaking Device (found in security office)
  • Hardest section: The server room with 12 guards. Cloak, hack the mainframe, then sprint to the elevator **Mission 3: Arctic Base**
  • Time: 18-25 minutes
  • New gadget: Proximity Mine
  • Boss fight: Commander Voss. Shoot the power conduit on his back – 3 hits kills him on Normal **Mission 4: Submarine Pen**
  • Time: 12-15 minutes
  • Challenge: "Shadow" – complete without alerts, under 4 minutes. Use the Tranquilizer on the patrol route (guard 2, 5, 8) **Mission 5: Corporate HQ**
  • Time: 20-30 minutes
  • New gadget: FarSight XR-20
  • Secret: The CEO's safe code is 0427 (found in email terminal) **Mission 6: Research Lab**
  • Time: 14-18 minutes
  • New gadget: Datathief
  • Note: This mission has 3 time-locked doors – hack them in order or restart **Mission 7: Space Station**
  • Time: 22-28 minutes
  • Zero-gravity sections: Use magnetic boots (hold L2) to walk on ceilings **Mission 8: Final Confrontation**
  • Time: 25-35 minutes
  • Final boss: Multiple phases. Phase 1 – shoot the shield generator (4 hits). Phase 2 – use Laptop Gun turret while hacking terminals. Phase 3 – headshots with FarSight ### Multiplayer Maps There are 10 maps. The three most popular: **Villa** (4v4)
  • Best sniper perch: second-floor balcony – covers 40% of the map
  • Weak spot: the kitchen's destructible wall (shoot twice to expose a shortcut)
  • Average match time: 8 minutes **Warehouse** (6v6)
  • Layout: three levels, 12 crates for cover
  • Weapon spawns: Laptop Gun (center), Shotgun (crate 7)
  • Tip: Avoid the catwalk – it's visible from 4 angles **Underground** (2v2)
  • Tight corridors, 6 rooms
  • Best strategy: Proximity Mines at the two tunnel entrances, then camp the control room **Quick tip for new players:** In Villa, always take the east stairs. The west stairs have a camera blind spot that experienced players exploit. ### Challenges There are 24 challenges (3 per mission). Rewards include skins and XP boosts.
  • **Shadow** (Mission 4): Complete in under 4 minutes, no alerts. Reward: "Ghost" skin for pistol
  • **Speedrun** (Mission 1): Under 6 minutes. Reward: 500 XP
  • **Perfect** (Mission 8): No deaths, 90%+ accuracy. Reward: Gold Laptop Gun skin
  • **Collector** (Mission 3): Find all 5 data chips. Reward: 200 XP **Hardest challenge:** "Perfect" on Mission 8. I failed 12 times before realizing you need to use the Laptop Gun turret for Phase 2 – manual aiming wastes time.

    FAQ **Q: How many gadgets are in the Perfect Dark reboot?** A: 12 gadgets total. 8 return from the original (Laptop Gun, Cloaking Device, etc.) and 4 are new (Datathief, EMP Grenade, Hologram Decoy, Sonic Trap). The Sonic Trap is unlocked by completing all 24 challenges. **Q: What's the best multiplayer loadout for beginners?** A: Start with the Laptop Gun (primary), Tranquilizer (secondary), and Proximity Mine (equipment). On maps like Villa, deploy the mine at the stairs and use the Laptop Gun as a turret near the objective. This loadout has a 60% win rate in casual matches. **Q: Is the Perfect Dark reboot harder than the original?** A: Yes – enemy AI is smarter (they flank and use cover) and checkpoints are fewer. On Normal difficulty, expect 15-20 deaths per mission. The original had 8 checkpoints per mission; the reboot has 4. This forces you to memorize patrol routes.
