Laputan Machine is an achievement in Deus Ex: Mankind Divided. It is awarded for finding the Kill Switch of Viktor Marchenko and using it to kill him.
The kill switch itself can either be found in GARM or in Apex Centre, London. In GARM, it is hidden behind a false panel inside a locker. The locker is in the north-western corner of Hangar 2 (the tent in the room with three guards). There is a switch at the back of the lockers in the corner of the room, requiring you to crouch jump on top of it and pressing it from there. This will open a hidden panel in the middle closet containing the kill-switch. Alternatively, it is located in Apex Centre's mercenary security hub near the catering area where you can find Jim Miller after he has been poisoned. It is hidden in a box under a table.
When Adam Jensen confronts Marchenko in Apex, he must activate the kill switch to be awarded the achievement. This bypasses the boss fight with Marchenko since it kills him instantly.
Notes[]
Getting this achievement voids the condition to unlock the Pacifist achievement, because Pacifist in Mankind Divided includes boss fights (unlike a similar achievement in Deus Ex: Human Revolution).
Trivia[]
- The achievement is named after the killphrase of Gunther Hermann from Deus Ex.
