Posted by Darkness on October 10, 2002 (Updated: 08-Sep-2023)
This is the AvP2 Predator Walkthrough guide for 2001’s Aliens versus Predator 2. All seven of the predator missions are listed here.
Level 1: Hunt
Quick Facts:
Date: December 01, 2230
Time: 09:08 AM
Incident: +6 days, 4 hours
Hunt: +4.0 hours
Location: Canyons, 3 KM south of the Forward Observation Pods
The Mission Objectives:
1. Hunt down the human prey.
After the long introduction, you will start the level on a small platform with many trees in front of you. Immediately turn your Cloak Generator on so the nearby humans can’t see you. Jump onto the nearby tree and jump to the next tree. You should see three scientists chatting away. Fortunately for you, they don’t have any weapons. The only weapons you have are your Wristblades and your Speargun so go towards the exit of this area. You can now test out your Wristblades by sneaking up behind them and killing them.
Make sure none of them get away because they will alert the guards in the next area. Once you’ve killed them, get your trophies and move on to the next area. In the next area, there is a marine and another scientist on the ground. Sneak up on them and kill them. You can now go up the nearby ladder but be careful because there’s a guard waiting at the top. Use the nearby tree to get up to the platform. Now the next marine can easily be visible so kill him and continue to the next area.
If you have your thermal vision on, you will clearly see two marines standing near a rock. Kill the guy on the right with the Speargun but be aware that the next guard will come to the scene. Continue along the route and you’ll see two more guards. Kill them with the Speargun and collect your trophies. In the area to the right, you might see another scientist. Ignore him because you’ll run into these killer plants. You should see a Predator standing on a rocky bridge. Don’t worry because he’s on your side. Go and talk to him and he’ll give you your next weapon – the Combstick. Continue along the bridge onto the next area.
In the next area, you have two different routes in which to go. There’s one straight ahead and another one to your right. They both practically get you to the same place so for the walkthrough, we’ll go straight forward. Jump from tree to tree and you will see the exit of this area. Go through that and onto the next area. You will see on the floor that there’s a strange mist floating about. Do not jump onto the ground because the mist will un-cloak you. Jump from tree to tree again and you will see some more marines wandering about.
You can kill them if you want but I would just continue on to the next area. The exit from this area is nearby. You should soon see some murky water. Jump in that and go down the left path. Beware that it will un-cloak you. As soon as you get out, put your cloak back on and prepare to fight four marines. Get the Combstick out and slash them all to death and use your equipment to gain back health or energy if you need it. Continue down the patch and you should see two marines. Don’t worry because another Predator will show up and kill them for you. Talk to him and he’ll give you the Disc. Head forward to the opening in the mountain.
Some marines will appear so defeat them and move on into the mountain. You’ll soon see a waterfall and nearby is a radio. You can listen to that if you want but go up the spiral path up the mountain. You’ll encounter two more marines wandering about. Kill them and move on to the next area. In the next area, make sure you have enough health for the area. A lot of marines will come rushing out and they’ll spread out. Kill them one by one if you want and get your trophies. You should see an opening at the end of this area.
Follow through to the last area of the level. You will soon see a fight between a couple of marines and a couple of Alien Drones. Watch out for the water, as it will un-cloak you. After the battle is over, kill the remaining marines left standing. Save your game and prepare yourself for the last enemy of the level. Wander around in the left direction and you should encounter the last enemy. This is an angry Praetorian. This battle is not as hard as you may think. A couple of slashes of the Combstick will kill it. Once you’ve accomplished this, then you have completed the level.
Level 2: Trap
Quick Facts:
Date: December 01, 2230
Time: 05:13 PM
Incident: +6 days, 12 hours
Hunt: +12.00 hours
Location: Canyons, 3 KM south of the Forward Observation Pods
The Mission Objectives:
1. Pursue your abducted clan mates.
After the cut-scenes have been shown, there will be two APCs in front of you. One will drive off leaving two marines talking. Eventually, these will go to the APC and it will drive off. Whatever you do, don’t shoot the marines with the Speargun because the APC will shoot you down. After the APCs have driven off, go along the side of the cliff and through the tunnel at the end. You will soon emerge in the next area. Remember to have your cloak activated and you’ll see three marines patrolling the area beneath the platform you’re on.
You can kill them if you want but jump onto the tree and then onto the ground. You now need to go left of the platform you were on previously. You’ll soon see some crates situated near a tree. When you approach them, two marines will appear from behind them. Kill them and you now have a number of routes in which you can go. From the crates, you can go down the left, middle or right paths but each one is guarded by two marines. The easiest and safest way to go is to climb up the tree. Jump onto the crates where the two marines were and then jump onto the tree branch.
Work your way along the branch and jump to the next level of branches above you. You now need to get to the ledge on the right so take the right branch and jump onto the ledge. Follow the ledge and when you get to the end, you’ll see an APC on the ground. From the cliff go right and right again and follow the narrow ledge around and you’ll see some APC doors on the ground. Now jump onto the branch from the tree and then jump onto the next level of the tree. Remember to have your cloak on and a marine will appear on the platform near the tree. Take him out with the Combstick and jump from the branch onto the platform. Follow the tunnel onto the next area.
When you get out of the tunnel you’ll be on a small platform with numerous marines patrolling below. As long as you don’t jump onto the ground they won’t see you so jump onto the branch in front of the platform. Work your way along the left hand side and jump from tree to tree and you’ll see a platform at the end. When you’re on the final tree, jump up onto the branch above and a final jump onto the platform. Go through the platform and follow it through. You’ll emerge on a short ledge and two Dropships will fly by you. Don’t worry about them. Just go up the ledge and into another tunnel.
When you emerge from the tunnel, a marine will be standing on the platform. Kill him and again you need to jump from tree to tree to get to the high platform. When you arrive in the area, an APC will also arrive and it contains numerous marines and a Combat Synthetic. Remember to use your cloak but beware your cloak doesn’t work against the Combat Synthetic. As soon as he sees you in the tree, he will start shooting but the rest of the marines will be unaware of your presence. From the platform jump onto the nearby tree.
My advice to you is to go in the right direction because a marine is guarding a tree on the left. When you get to the tree near the APC, jump onto the higher branches and work your way along the branches part the APC. When you get to the next tree, jump onto the next set of branches above. Work your way along left and you should see the platform above now. Work your way along and get to the next tree. Go to the edge of the branch and jump up to the branch above. Then do the same on the next set of branches above. When you get to the next set of branches jump onto the platform nearby and follow it through to complete the level.
Level 3: Interloper
Quick Facts:
Date: December 01, 2230
Time: 11:15 PM
Incident: +6 days, 18 hours
Hunt: +18 hours
Location: Beneath the Forward Observation Pods
The Mission Objectives:
1. Rescue your clan mates.
2. Use the human lifts to follow your team mates.
3. Escape the core.
4. Beware of water, which will temporarily disable your cloaking.
When you start this mission, you are on a mountain slope and you’ll see green glowing lights on the ground. These are powerful Sentry Guns watching for intruders. You need to get inside the perimeter so go down the slope and go in the right direction. Remember to have your cloak activated and you’ll soon get to a pool of water. Get to the edge of the water and crouch-leap over the fence to be inside the perimeter. Do not wander away from the edge of the water because you will be killed instantly by the Sentry Guns.
Follow the water up staying to the edge. Go past the APC and you’ll get to a slightly raised platform from the ground and a few marines are patrolling the area. Kill them if you want but go over the raised platform and past the small tower until you get to another pool of water. You don’t have to worry about keeping to the edge of the water because the Sentry Guns won’t fire. When you get to the edge of the water you’ll see an elevator with some more marines around the area. You now need to jump across the water and run to the elevator.
Beware that your cloak will be de-activated when you touch the water but just keep running to the elevator. Once you’re off the water, activate your cloak again and kill the two nearby marines. Let the third marine come to the elevator so he can tell other marines to raise the elevator. Once he’s done that, kill the marine and ride up on the elevator to begin the next part of the level. When the game reloads, immediately run out from your position and hide behind some nearby crates. If you stay there, marines will fire EMP Grenades at you. You now need to get to the platform above so you can either use the crates stacked up to get up or use the crane to get up there.
If you use the crates, kill the marines and follow the path round to the other side. If you use the crane you can just jump from the platform onto the crates nearby and onto the platform above. When you’re on the next level, there will be two marines just ahead of you. Kill them and another two marines to your right. Wonder around where the two marines to the right were and you’ll find a switch. Press that and a crane will pull a crate up. Jump onto the crate and you’ll be soon approaching the next level. Jump from the crate or the crane onto the next level.
Wonder around the elevator and you’ll find a switch on the elevator. Use the Hacking Device to hack it and turn around to discover a ladder. Go up them and go along the ceiling to the elevator shaft. Open the panel on the top of the shaft and drop inside and kill the person inside. When you get off the elevator, there will be two marines and a Combat Synthetic roaming around. Kill them and go right. Kill any marines and you’ll eventually reach two Sentry Guns. Destroy them and go up the elevator.
Proceed in a left direction and kill the marines that you encounter. You’ll come to a door on your right. Go through that and kill the two marines when you go through. Head up the set of stairs until you get to a doorway and go straight in. Kill the marines inside and go around until you come to another door. The next bit can be very complicated because it involves a lot of jumping from beam to beam. Jump onto the ledge and onto another after that. Go along the narrow beam and head around to the right. You’ll soon come to a small beam so jump onto it and jump off once more time onto another platform.
Kill the marines and the Combat Synthetic which you encounter and continue on through. Head right until you get to a ladder and go up that onto the next level. On this level there are a few Combat Synthetics so try just kill them one by one. Explore and you’ll find some ladders leading into an opening. Go up them and into a confined room. The doors will be closed and you’ll be captured. That is the end of this mission.
Level 4: Unexpected Allies
Quick Facts:
Date: January 06, 2231

1. Find a clan mate’s Mask to replace your own.
2. Escape the Pods.
3. Recover your clans’ weapons.
4. Find a Cloaking Field Generator.
5. Leap onto the dropship.
Since the Alien has destroyed the Control Station, you’re now free of the chamber. Go straight out and turn to the left to find a small panel on the wall. Use the Hacking Device and go up the elevator to the next floor. Head straight through and go through the door. Keep to the left and kill the marines that will arrive by. Go left and continue down the corridor until you get to a room. Go down the pipe and kill the marines waiting at the bottom. Head down the corridor and keep to the left. You’ll come to a room with a window on the left, a door on the right and two pipes going up the nearby wall. Go up to the pipes between the pipes and use the Hacking Device to hack a panel behind them.
Jump down and continue on through. Keep going until you reach two marines wandering about. Kill them and enter the door they were guarding. Grab your Remote Bombs on the desk in the room. Use the Hacking Device on the panel on the left side of the room and a door will be unlocked. Kill the two marines when you go through the door and go through the next door. Grab your Net Gun and your Mask in the room.
Head back out the way you came in and you’ll notice a new door. Inside a nearby room is a set of ladders leading up to the next level and a marine guarding the ladders. Kill the marine and go up the ladders to the next area. Follow the pipe around and drop down to the room below. Kill the two marines and now you need to turn the two valves on in the room. Turn them on and go to the other side of the room and watch the explosion. Go through the newly created hole and kill anybody you see on your way.
After a while, go in the door on your right to find your Combstick and your Cloak Generator. Go down the previous corridor and through the door at the end. Kill the marine and go left and kill any Scientists in the room. By exploring you’ll find your Energy Sift and a new weapon called the Shoulder Cannon. These are lying on a circular table on a platform. As soon as you pick them up, two marines will come through the door nearby. Kill them and go up the other set of steps into a small room.
Head through the door to your right and kill the marines in the corridor. From where you came in the door is an opening in the ceiling. Jump into there and explore and you’ll find a box that needs to be hacked. Use your Hacking Device and go back down to the corridor. Kill the Scientist and the marine and in a room nearby is your Speargun. Grab that and go down the corridor and go straight to the elevator shaft. Jump onto the elevator and wait for it to stop. Jump off the elevator where two marines and a Sentry Gun are below.
Kill them and a Combat Synthetic will appear nearby as well. Kill him as well. Around the big room, lots of Combat Synthetics are situated. Watch out for the two at the bottom because they are carrying SADARs and as soon as you raise your head, they will fire you down. Kill the two Synthetics to the left and right and try to take out the two at the bottom. Once they’re dead, proceed down to the bottom of the big room. Use the ladders if they’re accessible. Once at the bottom, there are a few crates next to an APC. If you didn’t blow them up earlier, do it now and an opening in the wall will be created. Approach the opening and wait for the Dropship to fly by and jump onto it to complete the level.
Level 5: Old Debts
Quick Facts:
Date: January 06, 2231
Time: 11:25 PM
Incident: +6 weeks, 18.25 hours

The Mission Objectives:
1. Find high ground and signal your clan.
2. Restore the transmitter’s power.
3. Use the transmitter to contact your clan.
4. Recover your mask to restore your honor.
When you start the mission, go along to the right and through the fencing and drop down into the hole. You are now deep inside the Alien Hive. Switch to your Alien Vision mode and get your Shoulder Cannon weapon ready. Proceed along the tunnel until you come to a big area or opening. You now need to get to the other side. Be careful and watch out for numerous Aliens which attack you on the way. Head left and follow the tunnel around until you get to another opening. Leap on the rocks to get to the top.
Turn left and continue until you get to an opening on your right. Head on through and go left and you’ll fall into a pool of water. Swim out and explore and find the exit at the right-hand side. Keep going until you reach some pipes. Go straight ahead until you reach the pipeline. Head down and climb up the ladders and go right, along the pipes. Eventually in the middle of the pipe a Predalien will appear in front of you and to make that worse another one will appear from behind you. Kill both of them and continue along the pipe.
Kill the Aliens that attack you and continue along. Keep to your right all the time and eventually, you’ll reach an elevator. On the left-hand side is a switch. Flick that and a small explosion will occur. Go to the control box nearby and use the Hacking Device on it. Now you can ride up the elevator. When you’ve reached the top, kill the Aliens that you’ll soon see and turn left into a door. Go down the steps and along the corridor. Go along the room nearby and hit the switch.
You now need to make your way back up the previous steps and out the door. Go across the Landing Bay and find the switch near the large doors. Use your Hacking Device and immediately loads of Aliens will appear behind you. Run around the Landing Bay killing the Aliens and don’t stand near the main doors when the Dropship arrives. Watch out for a Praetorian that makes an appearance and soon the Dropship will fire the doors down giving you a way out. Kill any Aliens on your way out and switch to your Predator Vision and you’ll see a Predator standing nearby. Talk to him and he’ll give you your Disc back. Now just go through the door nearby to complete the mission.
Level 6: New Target
Quick Facts:
Date: January 07, 2231
Time: 01:50 AM
Incident: +6 weeks, 20.50 hours

Location: Tunnels leading from abandoned landing to Hive entrance
The Mission Objectives:
1. Find your original mask and pursue Rykov.
2. Descend to the Hive entrance to intercept Rykov.
When you start the mission, you start on an elevator. Jump down and continue on through the vents. Climb down the ladder and in the room will be a Scientist and a marine. Kill them quickly. Open the cage door in the room and jump down to be under the floor. Explore around and you’ll find a switch on a wall. Use the Hacking Device on the switch and watch the door open. Go back to where you came in under the floor and jump up into the opened door. Kill the marine on the left and kill the three marines to the right.
Nearby some crates is a grill in the floor. Go in the hole to be under the floor. Just go left and then right into the next area. Kill the marines with your Speargun and go forward to the small elevator. Jump onto that and onto the platform above. Watch out for a lot of Sentry Guns and destroy them as soon as you see them. Head to the nearby crates and destroy the Sentry Gun in front of them. Destroy the next few around the platform and another is close by at the end. Look for a corridor near the Sentry Guns and enter it. Go up the elevator into another room. Kill the two Scientists in the room and flick the switch on the left. Now you need to head back down the elevator.
Stand still and watch the fight between the Aliens and marines and kill anybody remaining. Jump into the middle of the area and down a hatch in the ground. Go down the tunnel and you’ll now encounter numerous Aliens. Use the Shoulder Cannon to take them all out and jump to the platform in front of you and go over the fencing. Carry on along the winding tunnel and kill the Aliens along the way. You’ll soon see some kind of platform with a couple of marines on it. Then loads of Aliens will arrive and attack the marines and you.
Kill the remaining survivors and go right, down the tunnel. Go out of the tunnel at the end and you’ll have to jump down from platform to platform soon. When you get to the doorway at the bottom, Aliens and marines will be firing at each other. Kill anybody left and continue on. You’ll get to another area with Aliens and marines fighting each other. Kill anybody left and jump into the middle section and through the vent to complete the mission.
Level 7: Trophy
Quick Facts:
Date: January 07, 2231
Time: 02:36 AM
Incident: +6 weeks, 21.33 hours
Hunt: +5 weeks, 1 day, 21:33 hours
Location: Hive Entrance
The Mission Objectives:
1. Find your original mask and pursue Rykov.
2. Bring down Rykov.
After the cut-scenes, jump down to the ground where Rykov was. Head to the right and through the tunnel with the pipes. Crouch down and enter until you get to an opening and you’ll see a dead Predator on the ground. Kill the Facehugger nearby and go back towards the way you came in. Immediately another Facehugger will attack you. Kill that and go inside the vent that it came out of above the crates. Destroy the grill at the end and jump out into the corridor. Use the Hacking Device on the panel near the vent and the wide doors will open.
Go through the doors that Rykov went through ahead and continue on until you get to another room. Kill any Aliens and go near the Drill Rig in the ground. By the wall is a switch. Press it a few times and the Drill will be raised. Press it again and it will be lowered. Jump down and go through the tunnel at the bottom near the Drill. Continue on, killing all the Aliens and watch out for the Praetorian lurking about down there.
Now you need to do a lot of jumping and you have to get to an exit right at the top. Go left or right and jump onto the branch. Work your way along jumping up onto each one and you’ll get to a broken branch. Jump down to the right, onto the below stem and go back to work your way up. Head through the tunnel at the top and you’ll get to another area. Kill all the Aliens that attack you and carry on to the other side of the room. Go through until you come to the next area. Go straight ahead avoiding all the Facehuggers and turn left when you can.
Head up and left again and you’ll come to the next section. Turn to your Normal Vision and you’ll see that one of the openings ahead is covered in some kind of alien material. Make your way to that opening and jump up onto it. Half way up however, Runner Aliens will come from above and attack you. Take care of them and jump up into the tunnel. Continue on until you get to the next area. Kill the Aliens and continue along the path in front of you. When you’re on the other side, look for the tunnel and go through it until you get to the next section. You now need to do a lot of jumping and head through the tunnel to the last area.
Head down to the centre of the room and you get the chance to fight the Queen Alien. Strafe around and fire Plasma Bolts at her and finish her with the Combstick to kill her. Once you’ve done this, you’ll will be attacked by lots of Aliens. Kill them and head down the passageway. Wander around the next area and keep an eye out for Rykov. Try and get as far away as possible and use your Zoom to use your Plasma Pistol on him. It won’t be very hard to defeat him and that’s it. You’ve completed all the Predator Mission. Well Done!
Originally, (from what I read in the manual), you were to find at least 1 Predalien in Mission 7, the tragic result of the dead Predator you find.
