Important: This is an endgame quest. You need to have beaten the game to access this content.

Once you login to the game you should start up your save. Like the previous DLC you will get a prompt for a new quest. This DLC quest is called A Dark Place. If you are not in the Executive area head there now. Once there approach the Sector Elevator to see a familiar face sitting at a type writer. This triggers the new quest and starts the DLC.

    I don’t get the new mission prompt either and when I go to the sector elevator I don’t have the “investigations sector” in the list. I’ve beaten Face of the Emeny.

    You on PS4? Have you tried heading to PSN, then Control. Once you’re in the game “page”, you can see to the right the option “expansions”. Just click, choose AWE. Once you get back to the game, make sure you’re in the Central Executive and a few seconds later, the mission will pop up. Just track and have fun. 🙂 At least this worked for me, perhaps it works for you too.

    I had the same problem at first. I solved it by going to the PSN store and actually clicking ‘download’ on the AWE DLC. Afterwards, I jumped back on Control and it worked right away.
