Deus Ex: Human Revolution Hints

Retrieve Burke's eye.

  • 1 of 7: Go back the way you came until you reach the security checkpoint, then do the scan thing so you can get back to the detention camp.
  • 2 of 7: You'll then need to get back down to the bottom floor so you can return to the security checkpoint that leads back to the administration sector.
  • 3 of 7: Past the security checkpoint, turn right to return to where you knocked out a guard to deactivate a laser grid, then turn right again and go up the stairs.
  • 4 of 7: Wait in cover mode at the top of the stairs until the two nearby guards finish talking, then wait until one of them walks away. You're going to need to take the other one down without letting the security camera see you.
  • 5 of 7: Wait until the camera is turning to the left, then sneak-run up to the door that's to the right of it.
  • 6 of 7: That's Burke's office door, so hack the security device that's to the right of it so you can go inside.
  • 7 of 7: Look on the desk to find Burke's spare retinal prostheses. Take them to get the next objective.
