Prey Guide › Walkthrough: Story Objectives

Introduction

Initialization

In Prey, you find yourself aboard Talos I, a space station overrun by hostile alien entities known as Typhon. This step-by-step walkthrough provides everything you need to survive the Typhon-infested space station, complete with maps revealing the locations of life-saving items and gear.

Prey is a game of freedom, choice, and ever-changing priorities. The game doesn’t confine you to a linear, predictable path. Instead, you’re free to explore Talos I at your leisure. Throughout the adventure, you’re prompted to complete a variety of story-based and optional objectives. Story-based objectives must be completed to advance the story and complete the game. As the name suggests, optional objectives aren’t mandatory but offer greater insight into the game’s backstory and often reward you with access to new areas and gear.

This walkthrough offers a streamlined approach to the game’s story-based and optional objectives with the goal of providing the most complete, yet efficient path through Talos I. Still, feel free to deviate from the walkthrough, exploring the station and discovering solutions on your own. If you get lost or stuck, use the walkthrough as a reference to get back on track. Before you start exploring Talos I there a couple of choices you must make.
