How Pitchfork Executions Work
Weapon equipped
The execution belongs to the Pitchfork family.
Target setup
Execution availability may depend on the target's current state and the game's execution conditions. Extra thresholds are listed only when they are confirmed for this family.
Execution interaction
A weapon execution is different from finishing the victim with a normal Pitchfork attack.
Environment object not required
If the prompt comes from a cash register, car, wall, telephone or another object, that is an Environment Execution instead.
How to Perform a Pitchfork Execution
Only confirmed family steps are listed. Extra Stalk, Bloodthirst or grab thresholds are not published here until they are confirmed for this family.
Equip the Pitchfork
The cinematic execution belongs to the equipped Pitchfork.
Reach the weapon execution interaction
Use the weapon execution system, not an environment-object prompt and not a regular attack.
Use the execution input shown by your current control binding
Do not copy a third-party key or button list. Rebinds and platforms differ.
Confirm a Pitchfork cinematic execution plays
If a regular attack finishes the target, that is a normal kill, not this execution family.
Required for Into the Shadows · Challenge 2

The Challenge names a weapon execution. A normal kill with the same weapon is not automatically the same action.
Open Challenge Guide →Normal Pitchfork Kill vs Execution
Normal Pitchfork Kill
Victim dies from a regular Pitchfork attack.
Pitchfork Execution
Weapon-specific cinematic execution system is triggered.
If an Achievement or Challenge explicitly says “execute” or “execution,” do not assume that an ordinary weapon kill satisfies it.

Can You Choose an Execution Variant?
The database confirms 4 distinct Pitchfork cinematic variants, but it should not imply that the player can manually select a specific numbered variant until the selection rule is confirmed.
Why Isn't the Pitchfork Execution Appearing?
Do you have the Pitchfork equipped?
Why Didn't the Challenge Count?
First check the exact wording, then whether a cinematic Pitchfork execution actually played, then the overlay conditions.
- Target
- Cop
- Finish
- Kill a Cop with a Pitchfork Execution.
If a cinematic never played, you may have completed a normal weapon kill. Overlay conditions such as Stalk Level 3 are not proven as the global Pitchfork trigger.
