How to unlock the I and It achievement in Prey - Definitive Guide
Some Tips:
-You can use the stun gun on the mind controlled people and then kill them when they are unconscious if you are struggling with them, as them suiciding will not count as an achievement.
-You should make sure in your stats that the “Humans Killed” number is accurate, personally I checked after each kill that the number went up accordingly. You need to get 42 kills to get this achievement.
-You’ll get a side mission when Dahl arrives, assumed you killed everybody you could up to this point called “Showing Initiative”. This mission has you kill four mind-controlled crew members in life support, and this needs to be done for the trophy. Those crew members only spawn in during this side mission!
-You also need to kill the two crew members stuck in the escape pod in the shuttle bay. To get the quest, select either Frank Jones or Emmanuella DeSilva from the security terminal and track them. Go to the escape pods, they’ll tell you to blow the hatch seal outside manually so they can escape. Don’t do that, just go to the maintenance panel and launch pod 2. This will make the escape pod explode instead.
-You should also go to the Bridge, and on the second floor will be a terminal tracking the progress of an Escape Pod to Seattle, destroy the shuttle with the terminal (part of the Shuttle Advent quest but you can do this at anytime).
-It’s also important to remember that sometimes people will be unconscious (like when you kill a Telepath), and this may make them easy to miss, so check bodies on the floor to make sure they are a Corpse!
-If you miss anyone use a Security Terminal to find them.
-You don't need to kill Danielle Sho
Here is the list of people you need to kill and the exact order in which I did it (which is generally the best way to do it), I also recorded all their names so you can track them on Security Terminals and check them off this list.
The way I will show you how to do this achievement you will also be able to easily unlock “Awkward Ride Home” in just 5 minutes extra, which I highly recommend since you are already almost at the achievement.
Chronological List:
TALOS I LOBBY
1– Trevor J. Young | Location: Trauma Center, locked in Quarantine.
PSYCHOTRONICS
2– V-090655-13 (AKA Aaron Ingram) | Location: Psychotronics, locked in a Glass Cell near a Security Terminal. Open the door and kill him, do not run the Mimic Experiment!
ARBORETUM
In the Greenhouse; you can get the password by following the obscure path near the Crew Quarters that will take you to a little Picnic Area (it’s in the briefcase), hack the computer, or find a way to navigate to the roof of the Greenhouse (GLOO gun).
You need to ensure that you kill all 3 yourself, as there is a Telepath in the Greenhouse as well. When you kill a Telepath nearby Mind-Controlled Humans will be rendered unconscious. Personally, I just killed the 3 people with my pistol and left.
3– Mickey Pitt Sr. | Location: Greenhouse
4– Rani Chaudhary | Location: Greenhouse
5– Rodney S. Poole | Location: Greenhouse
BRIDGE
Now is a good time to quickly go to the Bridge, and on the second floor will be a terminal tracking the progress of an Escape Pod to Seattle, destroy the shuttle with the terminal (part of the Shuttle Advent quest but you can do this at anytime).
Activating this won’t affect your Humans Killed stat, but I still did it to be sure!
CREW QUARTERS
The Crew Quarters is quite large and people do tend to wander around. I will highlight the areas you will need to visit to kill everyone and the general order to do so.
In the Main Lobby there should be a few people, then moving to the Crew Quarters there will be a Telepath and a few more people (also check on the second floor dining area). Returning to the Main Lobby there should be a few more people wandering around. In the Recreation Center there should be one man unconscious on the stairwell.
Now moving to the Fitness Center (code can be found on Lobby Security Terminal) there should be a few people in the hallways (watch out for the guy standing just behind the door!). In the Locker rooms will be a couple more, one person will be hiding in the showers.
At the back of the Fitness Centre is the Pool area, there is another Telepath and quite a few Humans. Remember to check your stats after every kill. Personally, I killed the Telepath with a Q-Beam quickly then hit all the unconscious bodies with my wrench.
If you missed anyone, you can track them on the Security Terminal so it shouldn’t be too hard, as long as you ensure no one died via suicide.
6– Carlos Popinga
7– Bernard Griffith
8– Indigo Lake
9– Caleb Hawethorne
10– Lisa Larson
11– Vincent Schubel
12– Franz Klinge
13– Jillian Quigg
14– Phong Vu
15– Gary Snow
16– Emma Beatty
17– Oliver Benoit
18– Ike Stewar
19– Daniel London
20– Salman Kapoor
21– Harvey Clausen
22– Mary Malinaro
23– David Branch
Now is also a good time to kill the cook, personally I gave him his award then killed him after he opened the kitchen, or you can just shoot him through the window. He is in the Cafeteria area of Crew Quarters.
24– V-010655-37 (AKA Luka Golubkin, The Cook, Will Mitchell)
CARGO BAY
Continuing the story you will get an optional quest to save Dr.Igwe (as you are at the Cargo Bay Hull Breach). You want to rescue him, and you also want to ensure that nobody in the Cargo Bay dies (there are 9 people here including Sarah, Igwe and an injured female on the second floor, the other 6 are soldiers). Make sure they are all alive after opening Cargo Bay B!
Don’t kill any of them until you continue the story, we will return to the Cargo Bay later in the guide!
POWER PLANT
Continue the main story until you meet Mikhaila Ilyushin. When you do meet her, kill her.
25– Mikhaila Ilyushin
CARGO BAY
Ensuring you followed the steps carefully when first entering the Cargo Bay (see above), eventually Igwe will call you to tell you he is in your office. At this point return to the Cargo Bay and kill everyone there (sometimes the game will glitch and Igwe will still be at the Cargo Bay, kill everyone EXCEPT him! When you return to your office he will also be there, and he will be friendly to you still.)
26– Sarah Elazar
27– Austin Cool
28– Alfred Rose
29– Darcy Maddox
30– Ekaterina Mulsaev
31– Kevin Hague
32– Sam Hertz
33– Tamiko Hayashi
SHUTTLE BAY
Now is a good time to head to the Shuttle Bay escape pods. To get the quest, select either Frank Jones or Emmanuella DeSilva from the security terminal and track them, or you can just go to the escape pods if you know the location, they’ll tell you to blow the hatch seal outside manually so they can escape. Don’t do that, just go to the maintenance panel and launch pod 2. This will make the escape pod explode instead.
34– Frank Jones
35– Emmanuella DeSilva
LIFE SUPPORT
Continuing the Main Quest, eventually Dahl will arrive. Shortly after leaving Alex’s office Dahl will call you and remark on your killing tendencies, you will also get a new quest “Showing Intiative”. This is required to complete as these 4 people will only spawn in after this quest begins! They are in the Escape Pod Area of Life Support (Harley may be roaming the hallways near the Grav Shaft so look out for her). Also ensure the Phantom doesn’t take any of your kills in the Escape Pods so remember to keep an eye on your Humans Killed stat!
36– Harley Grainger (Mind-Controlled)
37– Maxine Ford (Mind-Controlled)
38– Richard Coveney (Mind-Controlled)
39– Steve Folson (Mind-Controlled)
SHUTTLE BAY
You wan’t to talk to Igwe at your Office and complete the Incapacitate Dahl Quest, if you’ve already done Showing Initiative, Dahl will be waiting for you in Shuttle Bay, however it is a trap. I recommend killing as many military operators in the area as you can before approaching Dahl because he will turn on you.
You want to use the Stun Gun on Dahl (I got him through the window to the left of door, by breaking it with my wrench first. You can also use the propulsion system to enter the big windows on the front of the room. Extend the Jetway using the computer while you’re here as well. After you Incapacitate Dahl, the next task will be to kill the Tech Officer (part of the Main Story, this is the Operator that spawns in a random location).
ARBORETUM
Shortly later in the main story you will meet Alex Yu, greet your brother by smacking him repeatedly with the wrench.
40– Alex Yu
In summary you should know have Igwe in your Office and Dahl unconscious somewhere. Everyone else should be dead.
NEUROMOD DIVISION
Advance the Story and Igwe will tell you he is ready in the Neuromod Division. Complete the procedure to remove his Neuromods, and after a brief conversation Igwe will open the doors to the Operating area. Kill Igwe
41– Dr. Igwe
If you also want to get the Awkward Ride Home achievement quick save right here!
Now kill Dahl
42– Dahl
Achievement unlocked!
At this point you can quick load, Dahl should be alive and Igwe (and everybody else) should be dead, with your stats saying 41 Humans Killed. You can easily get the Awkward Ride Home achievement from this point.
Complete the game by destroying Talos I and during the 8 minute Self Destruct countdown Dahl will tell you his Shuttle is leaving in around 5 minutes. Hurry over to the Shuttle Bay and upon entering Dahl’s Ship you should see on the Blue Screen: 0 Cargo Hold, 2 Cabin. The achievement should unlock shortly as you enter (you don’t even need to sit down).
I know you said these were listed in the order you killed them, but the phrasing around the power plant and cargo bay might lead some people to thinking they need to find and kill Mikhaila Ilyushin before they ever even get to Dr. Igwe and the cargo bay.
This is a guide to fully complete the game Prey. I will be showing you how to obtain all of the game's achievements and trophies, including the collectibles for: Press Sneak, Missing Persons, Psychometry, Dear Future Self, Black Market, and TranStar Gourmand. I'll also show you how to save and kill everyone (in separate playthroughs of course) for I and It, Do No Harm, and I and Thou. In the first playthrough, I'll be showing you all of the collectibles, all miscellaneous achievements, and completing the game with no kills and in the "most empathetic" way as well as using no Neuromods for the No Needles achievement/trophy.
Afterward, I will show you where to find all of the crewmates on your second playthrough and how best to kill them for I and It and Awkward Ride Home.
**Note that for Split Affinity, you will need to reload at the end of your first playthrough and use one Typhon neuromod, then complete the last few seconds again to get that to count as your first playthrough. Then, complete your second playthrough in a new campaign slot, and make sure that you only use human neuromods throughout that playthrough.
For the I and It playthrough, be sure to keep saves outside of major areas so that you can reload if any NPCs die without you having personally killed them. There will be 42 people you need to kill, so keep checking your tracker to make sure that the count adds up.
/!\ There are some spoilers in this guide so read at your own risks !
For this achievement you'll need to kill all humans in Talos I and around the base by yourself ! So humans can't be killed by Typhons or by suicide so be really careful about that point,i ruined a full walkthrough due to that.
The best way to kill humans is to kill them at long range or you can stun them with the Disruptor Stun Gun and finish them at close combat.
You must be at 42 humans killed in your stats screen to obtain this achievement. (thanks Heraizen for the tip !)
Here's a list for the humans that you need to kill (don't hesitate to comment if i miss a thing).
In order:
Talos I Lobby:
1 man locked in the Trauma Center
Psychotronics:
Aaron Ingram (you need to kill it by yourself,not with the Mimics !)
Arboretum:
3 people in the green house: Rani,Rodney S. Poole and Mickey Pitt Sr. (be careful to the Telepath,he mustn't kill the humans !)
Crew Quarters:
Most of the humans in the game are in this zone.I don't know the exact number but by memory there's nearly 19 persons in Crew Quarters.
Also Luka (aka Will Mitchell) the psychopath.
*Save Igwe from his container.I'm not sure if it counts as your kill if you open it.During my walkthrough i saved him (to kill him in a better way muahahaha !)*
Cargo Bay:
- 7 soldiers (including Sarah Elazar)
- 1 woman at 2nd floor
- Igwe if you want
*If you plan to do the Awkward Ride Home cheevo kill them all AFTER Igwe calls you to tell you that he's in your office.And kill Igwe after incapacitate Dahl.
Life Support:
The 4 people in the "Showing Initiative" side quest for Dahl. (be careful to the many Typhons.You need to kill them all by yourself !)
Power Plant:
Mikhaila Ilyushin (after rebooting the reactor)
Shuttle Bay:
Frank and Manuella during the "Escape Attempt" side quest (use directly the escape pod console without destroying the locks outside)
Dahl (but will void the "Awkward Ride Home" cheevo so save before or you can kill it later with Igwe after incapacitate Dahl)
Talos I Bridge:
The crew inside the shuttle during the "Shuttle Advent" side quest.Make sure you choose the Remote Detonate Scuttle Charges option on the Captain's Loft console.
Arboretum:
Alex Yu (Push the fat guy !)
*Achievement unlocked !*
If you don't have the achievement after killing all of them,there's 2 options:
- you missed someone
- one guy is killed by a Typhon or by suicide
So save a lot and with different slots before each location.It's better to restart 1 or 2 hours instead of the whole game,believe me.
Have fun guys ! Don't hesitate to put a like,it's still good to see and to make more early guides in the future.Also don't hesitate to comment my guide if you have any problems/tips.Thanks !
This is one of the trickiest achievements in the game. There are 42 kill-able humans in the game, and all of them must die by your hand. That means they can't be killed by Typhons or by suicide (including mind-controlled humans exploding their own heads). I recommend killing them at a long distance or by using the Disruptor stun gun and then finishing them off in close range. When you kill a telepath, any humans it controlled will drop to the ground unconscious, but not dead. Make sure to kill them.
Thankfully you can check your stats in the menus to see how many humans you have killed. Every time you encounter a human, save your game and kill them, then check your stats to make sure it went up by one. I'd also make a save every time you enter a new area, just to be sure that by the end you have them all. Sometimes mind-controlled humans will walk into environmental hazards, like electricity or fire, and the kill will not count for you. If you think you are missing one, you can use a security terminal to look up their name. Most of them do not have to be done in a certain order, but I included the order I did them in, and some tips on how to find and kill them.
1. Talos 1 Lobby - Trauma Center - Trevor J. Young

- If you don't kill Luka here, you can find him later on the Bridge. Make sure to kill him yourself, don't let the Recycler Charge finish him or let him bleed out.
At this point you should get an optional quest to save Dr. Igwe. Go save him and DON'T kill any of the people in the Cargo Bay...yet. Make sure none of them are killed when you open the door. Eventually Igwe will call you and let you know he is in your office. Now you can return to the Cargo Bay and kill everyone (Dr. Igwe might still be here but leave him alone for now).
25. Cargo Bay - Sarah Elazar
26. Cargo Bay - Austin Cool

30. Cargo Bay - Kevin Hague
31. Cargo Bay - Sam Hertz
32. Cargo Bay - Tamiko Hayashi
33. Power Plant - Mikhaila Ilyushin
These next two will tell you to go outside and blow the hatch manually to allow them to escape. Instead, go to the maintenance panel and launch Pod 2. This will cause the pod to explode, killing them both.
34. Shuttle Bay - Frank Jones
35. Shuttle Bay - Emmanuella DeSilva
Eventually Dahl will call you and give you the quest "Showing Initiative". These four people only spawn during this quest.
36. Life Support - Harley Grainger
37. Life Support - Maxine Ford
38. Life Support - Richard Coveney
39. Life Support - Steve Folson
In your office, Dr. Igwe will give you the "Incapacitate Dahl" quest. Dahl will be waiting for you with an ambush set. Instead of killing him right away, knock him out with the Disruptor Stun Gun. We will deal with him soon. Now continue the story until you come face-to-face with your older brother. Greet him with your wrench.
40. Arboretum - Alex Yu
Later in the story Dr. Igwe will tell you to meet him in the Neuromod Division to remove Dahl's neuromods. After a brief discussion, the doors to the operating area will open, and you can kill him.
41. Neuromod Division - Dr. Igwe
This would be a good time to grab the "Awkward Ride Home" achievement as well. Make a special save here, then kill Dahl to unlock "I and It".
42. Shuttle Bay - Dahl
Now reload to your earlier save. With everyone dead and Dahl still alive, activate the self-destruct sequence to destroy Talos 1. Dahl will tell you his shuttle is leaving, so hurry over to the Shuttle Bay and board his ship. "Awkward Ride Home" should unlock soon after.
Note: On the Bridge there is a terminal tracking an escape pod on its way to Seattle. You can destroy the pod with the terminal, but this won't add a kill to your stats, so it is not required for the achievement. Throughout the story there are characters who are killed by the Typhon; these deaths are scripted and cannot be interrupted, and are also not required for the achievement.
