Use the details in this walkthrough guide to learn how to progress through Psycho Patrol R, how to finish missions and for endings.
Psycho Patrol R Complete Guide
Welcome to the ultimate Psycho Patrol R walkthrough! This guide is designed to help you navigate the critical path, ensuring a fast and efficient journey through the game’s intense mech battles and narrative.
Note: This guide focuses exclusively on the main story. Side quests, optional areas, and exploration content are not covered.
Pro Tips for Beginners
- Peek Corners: Use Q and E to peek while on foot—this prevents enemies from detecting you. Right corners offer better shooting angles due to your character’s right-handed stance.
- Mech Combat Advantage: Corner peeking also works in your mech but requires precision due to glide momentum.
- Movement Speed Boost: Move diagonally (W + A or W + D) for faster traversal. Jumping while moving diagonally further increases speed.
- Don’t Stress About Money: The game equips you with powerful mech weapons early. Upgrades and personal gear are mostly picked up, so debt or currency is irrelevant for the main route.
Psycho Patrol R Walkthrough
Starting at EFP Headquarters
- Grab the HE Grenade from the table. Equip it via the inventory (TAB) and throw with V.
- Visit Lorenzo Visconti (your boss). Exhaust all dialogue to avoid an unwinnable mech encounter outside.
- Head to the garage (across from your office) and equip Ikon 25MM Rifles in both mech weapon slots for maximum firepower.
- Exit HQ and prepare for your first encounter.
Outside EFP HQ
- Eliminate the V-Stalker mech to your right using corner-sniping tactics (hold Shift to zoom).
- Navigate left towards the tunnel leading into PHC Free City.
Navigating PHC Free City
- Expect enemy fire from local hostile factions. Keep your armor intact by staying mobile.
- Progress under the Brigate Incel flag incline, eliminating nearby V-Stalkers.
- Retrieve the Rheinstahl VS-A armor module from the construction area, providing superior defense with reduced weight.
- Proceed through the next tunnel to Versten Residential.
Versten Residential Zone
- Hit the extraction checkpoint. Upgrade your mech if desired by returning to HQ and installing the VS-A armor.
- Continue through the area until you locate the tunnel leading to the Abandoned Highway.
Surviving the Abandoned Highway
- Snipe the helicopter from a distance, aiming carefully while zoomed in.
- Use left-side corner bias to eliminate the truck, a second helicopter, and tanks.
- Collect the Rheinstahl MG52 from grunts for future infantry combat. This also unlocks it at the garage for future missions.
- Follow the road until you reach the tunnel leading to Bitter Gorge.
Through Bitter Gorge
- Use the nearby extraction point if needed. Sleep at HQ to recover if it’s dark.
- Carefully corner-peek and eliminate multiple V-Stalkers and enemy grunts.
- Progress through mountain passes, clearing enemies, and hit the Decrepit Hut extraction point before moving towards the Countryside.
Crossing the Countryside
- Avoid provoking distant mechs. Move past the service station and down the dirt path.
- Watch for random V-Stalkers along the route and enter the canyon that leads to Famenne Wetlands.
Fast Route or Scenic Route Through Famenne Wetlands
Quick Skip (Advanced Players):
- Use a mech boost trick to reach the wooden hut in the swamp directly by pushing your mech up the left wall. Reload if you fall out of bounds.
Exploration Route:

- Take out CERH soldiers at the wooden hut and collect the Fobors CBT-ME, a useful firearm.
- Enter the CERH Research Facility to begin the final sequence.
