Shoot or Leave McKay

Decide whether to shoot or leave McKay in Far Cry 6's 'The Deported' operation. Learn the rewards for each choice and how it impacts the story.

Alright, so you've made it to the operation "The Deported" in Far Cry 6, and you're about to come face-to-face with McKay. You'll be presented with a pretty big choice here: do you shoot him, or do you just leave him be? This isn't just about making a moral decision; it actually changes what you get as a reward and how Yelena reacts at the end of the operation.

Let's break down what happens with each choice so you can pick the one that suits you best.

Shoot McKay

If you decide to go with the more aggressive option and shoot McKay, you'll be rewarded with a special piece of Wrist Gear called "Canadian, Eh?". This gear is pretty neat because it gives you extra Pesos every time you take down an enemy using poison. On top of that, you'll get a slightly different bit of dialogue from Yelena when the operation wraps up, acknowledging your choice.

Leave McKay

Choosing to leave McKay alive and unharmed at the end of the operation comes with its own reward: you'll get 5000 Pesos. It's a straightforward cash bonus for letting him go. You might be thinking that leaving him completely unscathed is a bit too easy, and the game agrees! You can actually shoot him once in the leg before leaving him. This way, you still get the 5000 Pesos, and McKay gets a little taste of Yara's hospitality.

No matter which path you choose – shooting him, leaving him, or shooting him in the leg – McKay won't be showing up again in the story. So, pick the option that gives you the reward you want!
