How to unlock the Never Saw it Coming achievement in Mafia III: Definitive Edition - Definitive Guide

This can be earned almost everywhere while approaching any building with enemies try to spot them so later you can use cn_back button to see them through walls. Simply approach the door kick open it by default cn_B and kil an enemy under 2 seconds. Only locked doors can be kicked open. I got lucky there and killed him with 1st shot.

Usually the rooms where the racket bosses are are good for this.

I've missed the spot for this... It's so hard to find a door you can kick and then also making sure someone is there.

@RonnieHotdog You’re probably at the point where you see enemies as red blips from wiring or Vito’s service. Just look for red blips just inside doorways & make a point of trying to kick those doors in. IIRC you can find kickable doors when you do the remote weed, electronics, & booze jobs.

The kicking a door while an enemy is nearby works perfect before you turn and shoot them.

Great video!

This can be done at any point during the game. You will need to find a locked door and an enemy. The enemy does not need to be on the other side of the door. You can kick open a locked door or just intentionally mess up the crowbar QTE three times in a row. So, simply lead an enemy to a locked door, kick it open, turn and kill the enemy.

Here is a video guide with English commentary for this achievement!

You can do this in a Mission or in the open world of Mafia 3. The procedure is always the same. Find a locked door with enemies behind the door. Some locked doors can’t be kicked and must be lock picking but if you fail 3 times the lock picking you can also kicking these doors.

If you missed some of the other earlier opportunities you have a very easy opportunity to get this late in the story mode. If you're like me you kinda struggled to put yourself in a position to get the achievement.

After you kill Olivia Marcano you can access a supply room containing body armor, adrenaline and a weapon locker with an M-14. There's another door in the room, and you can hear one of the Marcano's goons on the other side. This is an excellent opportunity to kick open the door and spray down the enemy on the other side.

I already had the achievement by this point but this is a very easy, very hard to miss opportunity to unlock it. If you want to make it even easier, turn aim assist to "High" before kicking down the door. At close range the assist does the aiming for you so you can't miss.

This can be done throughout the game and there are lots of opportunities to get this achievement.

First of all, the door needs to be locked, you need to press the cn_B button in order to kick the door open. once the door has been kicked you'll need to kill and enemy within 2 seconds of you kicking open the door. I would recommend either a Shotgun or an SMG for this.

When going into areas with enemies, make sure to press the cn_back button. This will allow you to easily spot enemies around you.

Using your Intel View, you can see enemies through walls in areas that you have wiretapped (or anywhere if you have Vito upgraded enough). Just look for an enemy that is right on the other side of a locked door - there will be plenty of opportunities. Press Circle to kick down the door instead of pressing Square to crack it open, then immediately go into slow motion, aiming and headshot the enemy on the other side.

An easy place to get this early in the game is during the prostitution racket in Delray Hollow. When you are freeing the strung-out girls upstairs, the door on the far left is locked and has an enemy inside.

You can only kick open locked doors, with . Kill an enemy within 2 seconds of kicking the door down. You'll encounter plenty of locked doors where the Enforcers and Racket Boss locations are so this is just a matter of seizing the opportunity. Use to initiate Intel view, or use the Consigliere associate from Vito to detect any enemies behind the door.
