MISSION INFORMATION
CHARACTERS
DEAD ECHO
DEAD ECHO was once the most elite squad in the confederation of colonies. Today, however, they’re a band
of feared space pirates. Stranded on a once-beatific vacation world full of deadly mutants and psychopathic
flesh-eating gangs, this battle-hardened crew must find a way off the planet to exact revenge on the man
who betrayed them.
GRAYSON HUNT
This headstrong leader of the surviving members of DEAD ECHO is like a pitbull on the prowl, willing to do
anything necessary to achieve his goals. This killing machine thrives on drunkenness and debauchery to
escape the haunting memories of the atrocities that he committed under the orders of General Sarrano.
After discovering the truth, Grayson Hunt and the members of DEAD ECHO—including his best friend Ishi
Sato—went AWOL and stole a confederation ship, The Spectre. The only means to survive as a hunted man
meant plundering the galaxy with his band of brothers and leading lives as space pirates.
But it wasn’t a life of rum and treasure. Grayson’s once proud profile faded quickly as he chose to become
best friends with booze and bloodshed.
ISHI SATO
An honorable man with a cool head and a focused demeanor in battle, Ishi is a born leader. From a wealthy
family, he chose to pledge his life to peace by enlisting in the Central Unit. Ishi was personally selected by
the General to serve in the Central Unit’s elite DEAD ECHO squad.
Ever loyal to Grayson, he and the other remaining members of DEAD ECHO chose to follow him into a life of
galactic looting and pillaging. Though disapproving of the group’s indulgent behavior as space pirates, Ishi’s
loyalty means he continues to be their voice of reason through thick and thin.

TRISHKA NOVAK
Not much is immediately known about Trishka Novak. Behind her steely and strong willed attitude, a warm
and intelligent woman is obvious.
With a take-no-prisoners resolve, Trishka is one woman you want on your side, as she’s one of the top
members of Sarrano’s newest squad: FINAL ECHO.
DR. WHIT OLIVER
Acting as the resident father figure to the crew of the Spectre, this is the guy you want patching you up after
coming in from a storm of bullets. Hailing from Tennessee, Whit brims with southern charm and education,
having attained two masters degrees and a PhD. In addition to being the crew’s doctor, he loves to tinker,
and has assumed the duty of the ship’s primary engineer. Having mastered both professions, Whit perfected
his “Hack and Weld” method of Field Limb Replacement, and can replace any arm, leg, finger, or toe in
under two minutes.
While not as aggressive as some of the crew, Whit often butts heads with Grayson and Rell, often siding with
Ishi on most issues. Like Ishi, the pirate lifestyle doesn’t suit Whit, but he doesn’t have much of a choice as
a wanted man.
RELL JULIAN
Rell never did well in school, but what he lacked academically, he made for up with his aptitude in
developing explosives. General Sarrano made a note of his performance on the battlefield and decided that
he wanted Rell for his Central Unit. While Rell proved an incredible talent in munitions development, he has
been docked as many paychecks as he’s earned under the General’s command.
After DEAD ECHO, Rell and Grayson formed a bond over the art of fighting, intoxication, and skirt chasing. In
battle, Rell is a mastermind when it comes to mines and other explosive traps.
GENERAL VICTOR SARRANO
With an appetite for war and power, this ruthless yet brilliant tactician yearns for an age of martial law
throughout the galaxy, and will stop at nothing to achieve it. As the mighty leader of the Central Confederate
Unit of Resolution (CCUR), he was once considered the most powerful man in the entire star system. Feared for
his ruthlessness in battle, the mere sight of one of his Battleliners causes potential adversaries to flee in terror.
His most trusted band of mercenaries were known as DEAD ECHO. Grayson Hunt led this elite team, and
fulfilled every command General Sarrano gave them. They were a band of ghosts at his loyal command who
could make entire colonial cities vanish. Sarrano’s wrath was tested during a mission, and now they are the
most wanted men in the galaxy.
WEAPONS
PEACEMAKER CARBINE
The PMC is a standard issue military assault rifle. Its high accuracy at mid range makes this weapon a
good choice for most combat situations. When charged, it fires a special purpose clip of 100 bullets in one
concentrated blast, which completely obliterates multiple enemies in a single shot.
SCREAMER
The Screamer is a powerful and accurate high-caliber revolver that stops almost any enemy dead in their
tracks. The secondary fire option launches a rocket-propelled flare that slams into enemies and sends them
flying into the air before exploding. The explosion sets fire to any nearby enemies.
4
5
FLAILGUN
Entirely custom-built, the Flailgun is a lethal tool that fires two high impact grenades linked by a steel chain.
This flail chain wraps around a target, rendering them completely helpless. The user can then detonate the
explosives whenever they like. Enemies or objects can be wrapped then kicked towards groups of enemies
and detonated for mass destruction. Charging the weapon will superheat the flail chain, turning it into a razor
that will slice through any enemy in its path.
BONEDUSTER
The Boneduster is a custom-built quad-barreled shotgun. That’s right: four barrels for quadruple the fun.
At medium range, it will send enemies flying. Up close, it’s more than capable of tearing enemies in half.
Use the Boneduster’s charge shot to fire a burst of super-heated air that can vaporize the flesh from multiple
targets in a single shot.
HEAD HUNTER
The Head Hunter is a semi-automatic, high-powered rifle built for long-range sniping. Each round contains
a radio-controlled guidance device, allowing you to steer the bullet around obstacles to reach the target.
A charged shot fires a guided explosive round that can be used to grab the target and then steer them into
other enemies or environmental hazards before detonation.
BOUNCER
This huge bazooka fires impact-resistant explosive rounds that can bounce off any surface, making even
the difficult to reach enemies into a potential target. The balls can be bounced along the ground, explode on
impact, or explode in mid-air. The Bouncer’s charge shot is a constantly bouncing explosive ball that can be
kicked and leashed around for maximum carnage.
PENETR ATOR
The Penetrator is a heavy-duty industrial power tool modified into a deadly projectile weapon. It ejects
a high-velocity self-motorized drill bit that can impale enemies into any surface. Several targets can be
impaled with a single drill. In charged mode this weapon shoots a rocket-propelled drill that suspends an
enemy in mid-air, allowing them to be retargeted to any destination.
CHAINGUN
The Chaingun will shred almost any enemy to pieces in a fraction of a second. The huge rotating barrel
provides an extremely high rate of fire, but requires a lot of energy. Once the chaingun has been lifted from
its stand, the weapon’s in-built power source will only keep running a short time.
GA MEPLAY
OBJECTIVES
Bulletstorm™ is objective-based, and objectives briefly appear in the upper left-hand corner of the screen
before fading away. Use objectives to guide you as you progress through Bulletstorm.
SKILLSHOTS
Every kill earns points, but the more difficult or stylish the kill, the more you are rewarded. Skillshots give
you extra points on top of a standard kill, so skilled players can purchase weapons and upgrades at an
accelerated rate.
Skillshots are sorted based on how many points they award. Basic Skillshots are blue and are generally the
easiest to perform. Normal Skillshots are yellow. Finally, advanced Skillshots are red, and are often very
difficult to master.
SKILLSHOT DATABASE
View information on Skillshots by looking at the Skillshot Database in the Skillshots menu. Skillshots are an
integral part of gameplay, and if you don’t know how to properly perform them, then your time in battle will
be short. Consult the database when in need.
KICKING AND SLIDING
Engaging in physical attacks with enemies is an effective way to set up Skillshots or knock them into the
environment. Kicking an enemy knocks them straight backwards in slow motion, setting them up for further
attacks. In addition, sliding can be used to quickly get within melee distance of an enemy when leashing
isn’t practical.
LEASHING
The leash allows you to grab a distant enemy and yank them toward you. Once the enemy is dragged up
close, they are suspended briefly in slow motion so you can utilize your weapons or melee attacks. The leash
can even be used to setup complicated Skillshots, pull levers, yank down debris, or pull enemies directly into
environmental hazards.
By earning Skillpoints, the leash can be upgraded with the Thumper functionality. Utilizing it smashes the
ground, launching standard enemies into the air with extreme force. Larger opponents will be slammed to
the ground and stunned.
NOTE: In Multiplayer mode, once you use the leash, the blue meter displays the recharge time.
DROPKITS
In-game military supply boxes are known as Dropkits. These are scattered throughout the world. If you see a
Dropkit, leash it to gain access to the Dropshop, Skillshot Database, and player stats.
Dropshop
The Dropshop is where you go to spend your skillpoints to buy ammunition and upgrades or unlock earned
weapons. Every upgrade makes you more deadly. Gain more powerful weapons. Perform increasingly lethal
Skillshots. Earn more points and keep your kill count rising. Check here often for new available upgrades!

ANARCHY
Bulletstorm’s online cooperative multiplayer mode is called Anarchy. Anarchy is all about killing waves of
enemies in cool ways, while working as a team with your friends. Utilize both individual and team Skillshots
to gain enough Skillpoints to progress to the next wave.
There are tons of ways to kill enemies, and almost every one of them is a Skillshot. Certain enemies award
extra points if you perform a certain Team Skillshot on them. Up to four players can partake of the carnage,
and you are always rewarded more for working together to take down your foes than working alone.
The points you earn in each round are based on the difficulty of the Skillshots you and your teammates
perform. In addition to enabling you to progress to the next wave by hitting the point goal, Skillpoints can
also be used between rounds to upgrade your character or weapons and replenish your charged shot and
secondary weapon ammo before going back into the fray. Anarchy lasts for up to 20 rounds, but the real
question is whether or not you’ve got the chops to get the highest score.
BLOOD SYMPHONY
Skillpoints aren’t your only reward for creating unprecedented levels of carnage on the battlefield. As you
play Anarchy, a red meter in the lower right hand corner of the screen builds up. When it’s full, activate
Blood Symphony. Leashing or kicking enemies results in fountains of blood and massive points. Build your
meter and activate Blood Symphony at the right time to maximize your score.
TEAM CHALLENGE
You survive in Anarchy on your own, but if you want to rack up the highest possible Skillpoints, you need a
teammate. Team Challenges give you a chance to work together with your teammates to kill one enemy in a
specific way. Pull it off and you complete the challenge and gain a ton of points. Fail and you just get to kill
another enemy. Look for the blue shine around your target and pay attention to the descriptor floating over
the enemy’s head to know what to do. When you’re ready to do the deed, synchronize your efforts with your
teammates and rake in the Skillpoints.
BARRACKS
Check out your rank on the leaderboards, view your statistics, and adjust your customizations in the
Barracks. You can also view your multiplayer progress, current level, experience, and experience needed
to gain a level. Feel free to adjust your player’s animation, helmet, skins, leash color, and boots in the
Customizations menu, as well.
