THE FLAME

The Flame is an engaging side mission storyline consisting of four missions. It kicks off in the Financial District and continues in Chinatown as the second Flame mission in the series.

EVERYTHING BURNS

“The Flame: Everything Burns?” is the second installment in a thrilling four-part Side Mission series. Following the hospital incident, Wraith reaches out to Spider-Man, revealing that the Flame has taken refuge in Chinatown. Access the building through a rooftop door adorned with a distinctive red firehand symbol.

Once you’re inside, join forces with Wraith to swiftly take down the cultists. Look out for a photo on the table that you can interact with in the same room. Furthermore, crawl into a vent located in that room, which will guide you to the next area. In this new space, you will encounter and defeat another group of cultists. Please note that the door to the next section is currently locked.

To unlock the door, begin by scanning the surrounding area using L2. Explore the large whiteboard near the locked entrance and examine the graffiti on the wall that says “The Unworthy Hide Everywhere”. Moreover, there are four flames featuring four names displayed on a nearby wall. To progress, begin your investigation of the unconscious cultists individually, searching for the appropriate tattoos that will grant access through the door.

Proceed to the next area by entering the door. Engage and defeat additional cultists while ensuring the safety of their captives.

To progress to the next room, navigate through the opening above the “Intensive Care Unit” Door. Engage in combat with additional cultists, then conduct another scan using L2 to spot a mechanism for unlocking the cells. Follow the path of the cell wiring, leading you to a machine situated on stage. Interact with the machine to liberate the prisoners.

After completing the cutscene and engaging in a fight, use the combination L2 + R2 to forcefully open the doors of the Quarantine Wing. Proceed to engage in further encounters. Due to the obstruction, the imprisoned individuals are unable to exit. Ascend above the doors of the Reception/Lobby elevator and kick open another door to confront the cultists within the cafeteria. Afterward, the way forward is clear, ensuring the prisoners’ successful escape.


EMF EXPERIMENT – Little Tokyo: Plant Science

Located on the rooftops in the northern reaches of the Chinatown district, the experiment beckons. Initiate it by interacting with the experiment station.

COLLECT PLANT SAMPLES

After receiving instructions from Dr. Foster, Peter is tasked with gathering nearby plant samples and utilizing the gene splicer. To commence this process, it’s essential to conduct a thorough scan of the area. This scan will highlight the plant roots, guiding Peter towards the accessible plants. Among these, you’ll find oranges, berries, and what appears to be a weed-like specimen.

GENE SPLICER – SOLUTION

Once you’ve got all three plant samples, head back to the Gene Splicer on the rooftop’s EMF Experiment station. The minigame is a bit like playing “Catan”. Here’s how it works: each card you place in the four remaining spots has lines on its sides – either four, three, two, or one. When you put down the cards, just make sure the lines match up.

Right below the “Plant Attributes” title, remember to use at least two plant cards and one “H” card.

Place them like this to solve the puzzle:

WATER THE PLANTS

After the successful combination of attributes, Peter has to plant a new seed. Yank the valve at the highlighted water tank with L1+R1.

As the water starts to run through the old pipes, the pipe will start to leak. Plug them by shooting webs R1. You sometimes have to yank something away that blocks pipe access. The leaking pipes are highlighted when you scan with R3.
