Prey Guide › Foreword

Foreword from Arkane Studios

It’s the year 2032 and the mega corporations of Earth have set their sights on space. With ties that reach back to President Kennedy and the space race, the Talos I research facility is the home of history’s greatest scientific breakthrough: the discovery of an extraterrestrial species, called “Typhon” by the scientists studying the strange creatures. After years of political turmoil and changing hands, Talos I fell into the private ownership of the TranStar corporation, which has been studying the Typhon species in the hopes of furthering the advancement of mankind.

But things have gone horribly wrong. The Typhon have broken containment and spread through the station at an alarming rate, tearing through the crew members on board. Now it’s up to you to stop the aliens in their tracks, save whoever is left, and prevent this menace from ever reaching Earth. As Morgan Yu, you’ll have your wits, unique weapons and tools created by the staff of Talos I, and a whole host of unique alien abilities at your disposal. In your mission to put an end to the Typhon threat, you’ll uncover the mysteries surrounding Talos I and the TranStar corporation’s interest in the aliens.

It will be up to you how you choose to go about your task. The entire station (including the space outside of the station itself) is open to you from the start, provided you can find a way to access it. But with all the freedom of a true Arkane title comes a daunting task: determining the best way to help you progress through the treacherous, contiguous world of Prey. In this strategy guide, the team at Prima Guides will walk you through Talos I, show you the best paths through each mission, and break down the many weapons, gadgets and powers you’ll have access to. No two players will have exactly the same Morgan Yu, but we want you to go into Prey with a good starting point as you begin to build the Morgan that suits your playstyle.

Think of this as your stepping stone into Prey. It will help guide you through Talos I, and reveal the station’s many secrets, but every person who plays the game will have a different experience. It will be up to you to chart your own journey, fight the alien invasion and save humanity.
