SiN Reloaded Guides Hub

SiN Reloaded is Nightdive Studios’ KEX remaster of Ritual Entertainment’s 1998 FPS SiN, shipping with the Wages of SiN pack. The full game launches 24 September 2026 on Steam, GOG, Epic, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and Switch 2. The Steam demo is playable now. The campaign is single-player; online PvP is a separate mode. This hub is the table of contents for every campaign guide on the wiki.

You play Colonel John R. Blade of HardCorps in Freeport, 2037. Doctor Elexis Sinclaire, CEO of SinTEK, is flooding the streets with the mutagen U4. Operator JC hacks DOS terminals in your ear. The opening job is a bank heist by Antonio Mancini that Elexis funded. If you only remember 1998 FAQs, start here anyway: Reloaded adds POI markers, weapon tweaks, and map overhauls that change how those old routes play.

Start here

• Getting Started — wishlist and storefronts, demo versus the full campaign, first hour, difficulty, saves, and the HardCorps fantasy.
• Demo Guide — Steam app 4679680, the two-mission slice (including silo-style content), dual Magnums through the HV chaingun, and Proton notes for Linux and Steam Deck.
• Controls — keyboard and mouse defaults, gamepad, Switch 2 mouse, gyro notes from the demo patch, and why Use both loots corpses and reloads.

Play the campaign

• Walkthrough — Freeport City Bank through subway, sewers, the SinTEK chemical plant, Area 57, biomech factory, missile silo, estate, oil rig, dam, construction, xenomorphic labs, and the Thrall finale. Includes the missile-timer branch.
• Secrets and Branching — pulse rifle parts, hidden caches, ATM and terminal hacks, Reloaded POI markers, Episode 5 linearization, and fail-forward paths.
• Combat Guide — locational damage, knocking guns from hands, armor pieces, ammo economy, mutants versus mercs, Quantum overcharge, and Reloaded weapon buffs.
• Wages of SiN — the 2015 Inc pack after the main campaign: Gianni Manero, new mutants, speargun notes, and the crossbow detonator.
• Hacking terminals — DOS prompts, cameras, JC, and Reloaded POI pings on panels that used to look like furniture.
• Vehicles — forklift, patrol boat, helicopter turret, ATV, and the Bank intro branch if you dump the gunship.
• Multiplayer — online PvP versus the solo campaign; deathmatch / CTF family, no shared story.

Ranks, tools, and launch notes

For numbers instead of a story path, use the weapon tier list and its weapons, enemies, and characters pages. Pair ranks with loadouts. Swap remastered textures for SiN Gold in settings. PC 4K/144 and Switch 2 docked 4K/120 live on system requirements. Nightdive’s map and gun changes are on what’s new. Store SKUs: platforms. Storefronts: Links. Parent tools and updates hubs collect the rest.

How Reloaded changes old advice

Ritual’s maps still branch on timers. Nightdive added POI marks on easy-to-miss keys, cut Episode 5 backtracking, and overhauled Silo and Chem. Dual Magnums fire and load independently. Spider Mines steer. Pulse lightning chains. The flamethrower hits harder. The speargun is worth taking underwater. The Wages of SiN crossbow got a detonator. Toggle remastered art against SiN Gold at any time. Higher tick rate is why gunplay feels snappier than Gold.

Use the child pages as the actual guide. This index is only the map.
