By
Shane Williams

This page is a walkthrough for The Contract DLC Mission, Studio Time in the Contract DLC. It’ll navigate you through the necessary steps to clear out the gunman in Record A Studios.

Dre works on some new music.

You did good plugging them leaks but it ain’t over yet, partner. We got the copies, but Dr. Dre’s phone is still out there being played by who knows who. While we crack this, you better go see the man himself.

Once you’ve completed The Nightlife Leak, The High Society and The South Central Leak, return to your Agency and a scene with Dre will playout. Here you’ll discover that Johnny Guns has the phone of Dre’s unreleased music. After the scene has come to a close, wait a while and Franklin will call you with the request to get Dre’s Car back, so return to the Agency and go to Franklin’s office to begin.

Exit the Agency and take Dr Dre’s Car which is parked outside, then follow the waypoint to Record A Studios. Here you’ll find a large group of hired gunmen causing havoc outside, so take cover and clear them out by using a variety of equipment, such as stick bombs, rocket launchers and Assault Rifles. After the street is clear, enter the office and you’ll find more gunmen inside.

Equip a shotgun and slowly work your way through the office by going from cover to cover whilst clearing out gunman which are in front. However, make sure you look behind you as enemies have a chance to spawn in previously cleared corridors.
