Basics

Spirit walking is great for solving Prey's many puzzles, but it's good for much more than that. If you're heading into uncharted territory and feeling cautious, spirit walk through the halls ahead to scope things out. Enemies typically won't notice your spirit form, letting you pass by them for sneak attacks.

Also remember that every shot you take while spirit walking drains your spirit meter. This meter is restored by collecting the souls of downed opponents. If you kill an enemy and the soul is out of reach, simply switch to spirit walking mode and the soul will automatically pull towards you.

The first gun you get in the game is a useful rifle that's good for close-range and long-range attacks. You'll be using it frequently, which means you may also be running its ammo sources dry. No problem!

If you run out of ammo with the sniper rifle, simply hold the weapon for a couple of seconds without firing. It should regenerate a couple of shots in reserve, just enough to let you take one sniping shot.

Prey's world is riddled with tricky puzzles that may not always be apparent. If you've run into what seems to be a dead-end, be on the lookout for a small puzzle. Often times you can unlock a new passage to continue the game.

There are two main things to look for. The most common puzzle type can be solved by spirit walking. Look for barriers that you can pass through in spirit form, or walkways that are invisible under normal conditions. Another common puzzle solution can be found on the walls and ceilings. Glowing blue activators, when hit with a bullet, will change the pull of gravity, letting you pass through doorways and passages that are otherwise out of reach.
