Dunwall Sewers

Dishonored guide · The escape after the betrayal

After being poisoned and dumped into the Flooded District, Corvo recovers his gear and must navigate the Dunwall Sewers beneath the city to return to the Hound Pits Pub. The route requires bypassing or neutralizing infected Weepers, River Krusts, and aggressive rat swarms. Your primary goal is to find a way through the gate mechanisms and access the surface near the pub.

Tips

Use Blink to move between suspended pipes and wall platforms to avoid rat swarms and Weepers wandering the flooded floors.

Turning on the steam valve in the lower tunnel will disperse the feeding rat pack without spending any ammunition.
