How Long to Beat Syphon Filter

Syphon Filter is now available to PS Plus Premium subscribers, giving players the opportunity to experience this classic third-person shooter on up-to-date hardware. That said, before players take control of Gabe Logan and set their sights on Erich Rhoemer, they may want to know how long it will take them to beat Syphon Filter. This guide is here to shine some light on this matter, and it will also provide a complete list of the game's levels.

Syphon Filter: How Long to Beat

Players that are enjoying this PlayStation Classic for the very first time, should expect to complete Syphon Filter in around 13 hours. While this is not a tremendous amount of time, the length is comparable to other action games of the same era. As an example, Metal Gear Solid also clocks in at around 13 hours, and indeed Syphon Filter is frequently compared to that title.

For those players that would like to extend their time with Syphon Filter, activating the hard mode cheat code is something that they may want to consider. This code is entered from the start screen, and fans that want to try it should highlight "New Game" and then press all of these inputs at the same time: Left, L1, R2, Select, Square, X, Circle. While some players may still be able to breeze through this classic PlayStation shooter with the increased difficulty, it can certainly serve to prolong the experience.

Alternatively, cheats can be used to get through Syphon Filter more quickly, as there are several that make the game significantly easier. For instance, highlighting "Weapons" in the pause menu and then pressing Right, L2, R2, Square, X, and Circle will give players access to all weapons and infinite ammo. Fans can also highlight "Map" in the pause menu and then press L2, R1, and X to weaken all the enemies.

Syphon Filter: Mission List

Syphon Filter is composed of 20 levels that can be grouped into five large missions. A complete list of those levels, divided by mission, can be found below, though players should know that their titles may act as spoilers. As such, stealth video game fans that want very little information about what they can expect as they progress through the title are advised to stop reading now.
