"I am getting closer. This is the black heart of Dexter Industries. Part of me dreads what I might find down here. Human experiments... children as weapons? This is all too close for comfort. All the more reason to pull the plug. I will find Victoria and destroy all data that Dexter's researchers might have uncovered. This ends here."

Notes[]

  • Sometimes in the Testing Facility, landmines being tested will kill guards when exploding. Even if the player isn't responsible, the score will still be reduced.
    • Also, 47 will be killed if the mines are active, should he step into one.
  • All three targets share names with characters in the Resident Evil series, where bio-weapons and weapons research is also a main staple.
  • The R&D segment cannot be completed with ONLY the suit, no detection and achieving a Silent Assassin rating, as the bottom floor has 2 test subject civilians, who cannot be bypassed through any means. This may be a bug, as the test subjects' eyes are actually closed, but it is not likely this will be patched.
