Jeffrey Parkin (he/him) has been writing video game guides for Polygon for almost seven years. He has learned to love just about every genre of game that exists.

Now that we’ve learned how to kill all of Deathloop’s Visionaries, it’s time to find some answers before breaking the loop and finishing the game.

Our Deathloop “Radio Silence” guide will help you find everything you need for the check out the Power Station, turn this thing on, search Tidevarv Station, search the Archives, return in the afternoon, investigate the RAK, divert the power, open the Horizon (HZN) doors to search Yasen Station, search Sova station, search Akkar Station, and open the RAK steps of this Lead.

Loadout

Like usual, we recommend the Shift and Nexus Slabs for this Lead. You’re going to be bouncing around between loops and locations a lot, so quick navigation (and quick kills) will save you some time.

As for weapons, something silent is always nice to have, and fill your other two slots with your favorites. There’s not a ton of fighting to do, so don’t stress over your choices here.


Radio Silence

Aleksis Dorsey is a rare target: easy to locate, but not so easy to find.

Our Deathloop guides aren’t the only path through this district. You can take whatever path you want with as much stealth or combat as you see fit. Our guide focuses on the path(s) that lead to every clue and Lead, letting you pick up any useful weapons along the way, and generally avoiding combat.

For this Lead, we’re heading to The Complex in the morning to see what Julianna’s hiding in the power station.


Check out the Power Station

Julianna doesn’t want me in the power station … which means there’s something she doesn’t want me to see.

We’re heading to the power station beneath the Loop Control Center. We were there way back in the game’s introduction.

Take the left path out of the tunnels, and follow the main road to the first left. Take it, and deal with the Eternalists and sensor there. Go through the door the sensor was guarding.

Inside, take a right and go down the stairs. Check the console on your left for the Unfolded Directive note, and then continue down the stairs.


Turn This Thing On

The power won’t flow without two – not one, but TWO – generators running.

As soon as you see the generator room below you, there’s a battery on a chair. You need that, but clear out the Eternalists first. When they’re handled, grab that battery and carry it down to the farthest of the two generators.

Plug in the battery and hit the button to start the generator. The battery will pop out — and it’ll probably be dead. Grab the battery and head down the stairs between the two generators. There’s a battery charger in the next room. Charge it up, and use it to start the other generator.

Go back up to the control room and throw the switch.


Search Tidevarv Station

Tidevarv Station is open for business. Colt business.

Upstairs, there’s power flowing to the switch next to the HZN Door. Throw the switch and head through.

Follow the halls until you reach the “all that matters” message and a console. Grab the Strictly Confidential note and the Test Flight 01 cassette. There’s also a fancy Pepper Mill next to the console.

Head up the stairs and through the door. You’ll end up underneath Wenjie’s Lab. Head for the exit.


Search the Archives and Return in the Afternoon

The archivist office sounds dry, but it also sounds like a gold mine of information.

and

An Eternalist will leave the garage door of the Archives Office open in the afternoon.

Head to Updaam in the afternoon.

From the tunnels, follow the HUD marker vaguely rightward. The Archives are a tall

The second door on the right is the bathroom. Go grab the The Sixty-Second Minute: Julianna Blake document from next to the tub.

On the left, look for the Hey, Hey, Miss J note next to the fan. In the room behind there, look for the Classified Information document sticking out of the bookcase.


Investigate the RAK

I found a password for a site called The RAK: - - - -. Whatever it is, it’s next to the archivist office and Julianna isn’t in it.

Head back to the garage door you entered through. Just to the left, there’s a bus stop-like structure covering some stairs. Take them down to The RAK. Interact with the speaker next to the door to speak the password.

Inside, grab the Go Time cassette on your right. At the back of the room, check the Where the Power Lies document from the door. This will have a code to divert the power.

Climb back up to the roofs and head for the exit.


Divert the Power

The RAK can get me to the Stabilizer Core. At the Power Station, I can use code --- to divert power to other sites around Blackreef – and find the other RAK passwords.

Skip to the next morning and head back to The Complex.

Inside the Power Station, head downstairs and get the generators started again. Back upstairs, enter the code you just found.

We’re going to work from left to right, so throw the second switch — the one above the map of Updaam. Head for the exit.


Search Yasen Station

I can access ‘Yasen Station,’ which may contain another password.

We’ve seen the HZN Door a couple times already. It’s along the left side of Updaam along the cliffs — the back way we’ve used to get to Dorsey Square during “What Wenjies Want” and “Devouring of the Lambs,” and it’s just to the left of the bridge to Charlie’s mansion in “Space Invaders.”

Once you’re inside, grab the Isolation note from the desk when you walk in. Head up the stairs to the top floor. There’s a desk on the right with another Classified Information note with your next password. Head for the exit.


Divert the Power and Search Sova Station

Skip through to the next morning — morning is the only time you can get into the Power Station — and head back to The Complex. Restart the generators in the Power Station, and throw the third switch this time (the one in Fristad Rock).

I need to search ‘Sava Station’ for another password.

Head for Fristad Rock at noon. The Horizon (HZN) Station in near (and attached to) Fia’s Fortress.

When approaching the fortress, keep to the left and follow the higher, mine-lined path to the Transmission Post tower. Keep right at the Transmission Post and take the path down to the shore — this is a back door into Fia’s. The HZN Door is to the left of the entrance.

Grab the Horizon Logistics cassette from the table in the middle of the room and the On Schedule note to the right of that. The Classified Information document we’re after is in the back left corner.


Divert the Power and Search Akkar Station

Skip through to the next morning — morning is the only time you can get into the Power Station — and head back to The Complex. Restart the generators in the Power Station, and throw the fourth switch this time (the one in Karl’s Bay).

I can investigate ‘Akkar Station’ in search of another password.

The Horizon (HZN) Station in Karl’s Bay is near the entrance to Harriet’s Hangar 2 and behind the frozen wooly rhino-thing (the Treasure of the Ice).

Radio Silence – Deathloop guide and tips Image: Arkane Studios/Bethesda Softworks via Polygon

We’ll need the ice to navigate, so head there in the afternoon. Head down to the shore between those two landmarks, and take a left. Follow the shore past the cliffs to find the HZN Door.

After the cutscene, grab the Lexicon Wars cassette to get the final password. There’s also a fancy PT-6 Spiker here.


Open The RAK

The three passwords to the RAK are ----, ----, and ----.

We can head back to the RAK at any time of day. Let’s assume you’re doing right after the previous two steps and head to Updaam in the evening.

Inside the RAK, use the microphone to unlock the door in the back. You’ll have a quick conversation.


Rocket Man

Once the other Visionaries are dead, the RAK will be my one-way ticket to Julianna.

With “Radio Silence” complete, we just have to find a way to take out all of the Visionaries in one day. We’ll pick up with “Ending It” in the next guide.
