Unlock the “Unplugged” achievement / trophy guide in Atomfall.
Atomfall is the latest and newest game from the developers of Sniper Elite and Zombie Army, Rebellion. Their latest title is a first-person survival mystery game, where you must figure out what’s going on in the Quarantine Zone in Windscale.
You must unravel the mystery, escape the Quarantine Zone, and try to survive, and there are plenty of excellent ways to do that in the game that will earn you tasty achievements / trophies (if you’re so inclined).

“Unplugged” Achievement / Trophy
The “Unplugged” achievement / trophy tasks you with extracting a battery from an overheating robot. You can do this achievement at the same time as the “Batteries Not Included” and “Any Old Iron” achievements / trophies if you do it in the right order.
To get “Unplugged” you need to remove an Atomic Battery from an enemy robot that is overheating. To get a robot to overheat, you need to deal it damage until it stops attacking. It will then crouch down, with an audio cue telling you it is overheating. Run to the back of the robot and the Atomic Battery should be protruding out of the top of it. Press and hold X (Xbox) to remove the battery (you need enough space in your backpack).
On doing that, you’ll unlock the achievement / trophy.
If you want the “Any Old Iron” you need to then destroy the robots weak spots. On a machine gun robot, that it’s top circuit board looking area, and its middle one.
I’d recommend creating a save before doing this.
There are plenty of robots to try this with, across Wyndham and in The Interchange too.
