Go up the stairs, and you will find a security guard with an electric weapon. You can fight him or shoot him. Keep going up, and another guard will appear. Enter a room with lasers, climb onto the display case in the center before the lasers, turn left, and you will see a ledge high up with a large first aid kit. Walk to the end of the display case and jump forward to grab the edge of the ledge, climb up, and take the first aid kit.
Jump towards the area with the three display cases to avoid the laser. Now jump towards the middle display case, and when the lasers move down, jump to the next middle display case. Walk toward the edge of the display case and the next set of lasers will turn on. You will notice that the ones above will be turning on and off. You have to calculate your jump to the next display case so that you can make it.
Jump onto the display case and hang onto the right side to cross the lasers, climb up again and jump onto the display case on the right side and jump through the gap between the lasers. Go to the next room, which also has lasers, and you will see a movie.
Lie down on your stomach to pass the crossed lasers, stand up to save the game, because in order to avoid the next lasers, you will have to make a side jump in the middle. I suggest you look at the five tiles on the floor and position yourself between the second and third ones, from right to left, and then try the jump. Remember that it is a side jump (circle + left joystick).
Walk to the right side of the room and you will see a guard. approach him and fight him. When you defeat him, he will drop his pass. Pick it up, open the door, and knock out the next guard. Go to the small display case to the right of the Mona Lisa and pull it to the right to release a switch. Don’t touch it yet. Then go to the center of the room to the large empty display case and push it as far as you can toward the Mona Lisa. Return to the button where the small display case was: this will be a timed event!
Save the game at this point, press the button, climb onto the large display case in the center, and jump toward the Mona Lisa. Enter the duct above the Mona Lisa. Go to the right and continue straight ahead. After it stands up, crouch down again and go through the small duct. When you reach the ventilation room, climb the ladder. Be careful because there is a security guard. Wait quietly for him to leave, open the door, and follow him quietly so you can knock him out.
You are on the roof of the Louvre. To the right of the duct you came out of, there is a box. Climb up until you reach the highest point and jump to grab the ledge. Slide to the right and climb up when you pass the black railing. Hang on again and climb up after the next black railing, continuing until you reach the cable above you. Grab onto it and swing down to the first ledge. Hang on again and reach the other building. When you arrive, you will gain more strength.
Walk across the ledge and jump to the other side when you reach the end of the ledge. Hang on and go to the left, climb down the pipe and enter through the window, grabbing onto the ledge. Go inside, attack the guard, and he will drop a key. Take it and exit through the window again, climb up the pipe again, and return to the ledge where you were before.
Jump over the hole in the fence, to the other side of the roof, head towards the barred area, on the right there is a ladder, go down the ladder, go left, at the end there is a room, go in and take a metal bar, leave the room and go to the stairs you have to cross, straight ahead you will come to a wall, jump and climb onto the roof, continue to the other side of the roof and go down to the concrete corridor next to the skylight, at each end you will find a door, on the left there are bandages, on the right there is nothing.
Go back to the top of the stairs in front of the gate, enter through the door using the lever, there is a duct above, crouch down, enter it and climb down, climb down another ladder, walk down the hallway and you will find a room like a warehouse, where you will see a guard walking below, open the door and take him out, go left to the second door, enter stealthily and take out the guard, use the security camera on the left and look inside the office to get the code.
Use the two joysticks to control the camera and zoom. If you have trouble, the code is 14639. Leave the room and turn right. Enter the code on Carvier’s door. On his desk, there is a security pass that will allow you to enter the excavation site. Walk through the room and you will find information. Go down the hallway to the last door on the left, enter the glass door, and you will find a cabinet with three respirators. Kneel in front of the display case and press action several times to get all three.
Leave the room and go to the left, open the door and go through it, go down the stairs to exit the museum, go to the door on the right where there is a security guard, kill him. Go to the door at the back, you should be back in the laser room, there is a first aid kit on the right, go to the door past the statue on the right, use the pass to open the door.
Follow the hallway and stairs to the archaeological excavation site. There is a security guard who will see you halfway there, but you can run away to avoid him even if he is talking to you. Go through the door at the bottom of the stairs, turn left, and you will find a large underground room on the right. That is the entrance to the archaeological excavation site.
