Before starting your complete walkthrough on Replaced, it’s important to understand that the game is quite different from other titles in certain respects. The game takes place in an alternate reality in 1980s USA, following an artificial intelligence named R.E.A.C.H. who is forced into the body of a human being in his quest for survival in Phoenix City and the corporation ruling over it.
The walkthrough presented here is aimed at providing players with a guide for all aspects of the game: the core storyline, combat, platforming, and all side collectibles. Expect fluid platforming, Arkham-inspired combat, stealth segments, and many more elements combined with an excellent narrative that should make Replaced an exciting adventure.
Each walkthrough segment will highlight objectives and provide clear instructions without getting in the way and slowing you down too much. If you want to go through the game 100 percent or simply avoid any difficulties, our walkthrough hub has got you covered.
Chapter 1
Warren Marsh leaves a lab that has been blown up, thanks to the help of the artificial intelligence called REACH. During his escape from the burning building, he sees the police killing people and runs away while dodging bullets and drones. When he passes out, he wakes up in the sewers and gets some basic equipment before going out into Phoenix City.
In the Termite Camp area, players are expected to fight using tactics like dodging, countering, and combining moves. Warren fights against the enemy gangs, explores around the area, and gathers information about the story. In the South Labor District, players use stealth techniques to accomplish their goals.

You can find more notes around the station.
In the arcade, Susan will ask you to repair her machine, which needs a Rectifier located close to the ticket machine. Moving further left, you come across the hospital where the doctor wants a Vacuum Regulator from Yo-Yo’s laboratory. In the laboratory, you meet Yo-Yo and Tempest, recall the story of your past, and get access to the combat system using energy and finishers.
