How to unlock the Deprogramming achievement in Prey - Definitive Guide

Deprogramming Achievement/Trophy Guide

Once you have access to your Typhon Powers you will need to get the ability 'Mindjack' which will require you to scan 2 Telepaths. Once you have this ability you will need to find a Mind-Controlled enemy and use it to free them.

For the purpose of this video I used the guy in the Quarantine section of the Trauma Center. You can either hack the keypad or find the code on a nearby computer to get in. If you wish to do this elsewhere you can always do this in the Crew Quarters where there are many of people being controlled.

I'm just killing them on mine, achievement won't pop. My skill doesn't work like it does in your video . It doesn't free them, just executed them. Help

@ feel the pain23 you are likely using the wrong skill , to unlock mind jack you have to unlock psyshoshock too which is what you are likely using.

Not sure why, but my achievement will not pop. I tried on the human in quarantine multiple times, but just clears mind control and they fall unconscious. I tried loading an earlier save and used on about 10 people in Crew Quarters, but chievo still won't pop. No clue what is going on, but this is pissing me off

After several failed attempts I had to reload quick save & quit game. From home screen I pressed the large lighted globe X & selected restart Series S console. Selected continue from menu which was a previous quick save. Unlocked door with code. Hit Trevor J. Young in Quarantine with quick light burst of Mindjack 1, using left trigger, as he was facing me in the cell. Released trigger while his head was looking down. Be sure you target him with right stick. He dropped unconscious and achievement unlocked. Be sure to quick save before you do this. Using a disk but should work on digital as it has for me with other Prey achievements, while on gamepass when I forgot to insert disk. Good luck.

This worked for me and I had to do this for a story based achievement that wouldn't work for me. I think games which came out before Series X have issues unlocking achievements when you have quick resume active.

Once you have the Psychoscope you will have to scan two Telepaths to unlock the Mindjack power. Then you need to find a mind-controlled human. They have smoky tendrils floating around their head. Approach them and press to free them and knock them unconscious to unlock the achievement.
