How to unlock the Shortcut Killer achievement

    There are a total of 17 shortcuts in the six main campaign levels. Once you've opened/unlocked them they'll remain unlocked for any future playthroughs.

    The shortcuts are broken down as follows:
    - Dubai - 4 shortcuts
    - Dartmoor - 2 shortcuts
    - Berlin - 3 shortcuts
    - Chongqing - 3 shortcuts
    - Mendoza - 3 shortcuts
    - Carpathian mountains - 2 shortcuts (But if you get them in order you won't need these for the achievement)

    Below I've linked youtuber MrFreeze2244's video walkthroughs for unlocking all of the shortcuts (his walkthrough videos are, in my opinion, the best out there, I'd highly recommended checking out his videos if you're struggling with any challenges).


    Dubai (4 shortcuts)

    Dartmoor (2 shortcuts)

    Berlin (3 shortcuts)

    Chongqing (3 shortcuts)

    Mendoza (3 shortcuts)

    Carpathian Mountains (2 shortcuts)
    Note that this video actually covers all the challenges for the Carpathian Mountains (except suit only / silent assassin). If you follow through from the start you'll unlock the first shortcut at 6:32, and the second at 9:24.

    Chief RedrumAnd it just popped now as I started the elusive target in Argentina. Finally.

    Funky MonkeeI can confirm this has been fixed for me too. I loaded each level and then quit out and it popped after loading the last level. Thanks IO, a couple months late but still :)

    Firebird22xI’ve only played Dubai so far (I have imported my Hitman 2 data) and this unlocked on the first Escalation mission, The Sebastian Principal, after I completed level 2.

    Jamiereloaded23Same for me Firebird, I'm only halfway through Dubai and it unlocked. I've only opened 2 of the shortcuts so far.

    Drazer76I have done one ladder on Dartmoor.
    On a wrap up play if it, this popped.
    So bugged in a good way for me (shame it isn’t one of the more difficult ones that popped)

    Like with a bunch of achievements in this game, this popped when I reloaded a save after getting the 15th shortcut in Mendoza.

    GTAmissions1Can confirm that once I unlocked the shortcuts in all maps, save your game and reload it after which it popped for me shortly after.

    FaelPadovanI was killed seconds after the 15th shortcut and it popped.
    I think after you finish the mission or killed in the mission the achievement will unlock
