Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Exit the deposit using the Skiff and drive until you find the COG gate.
  2. 2
    Get off the Skiff, go to the passage on your left, and then left again to find a crimson mark on the rock. This is your first relic weapon, an Enforcer Relic.
  3. 3
    Go right and enter the broken wall to access the gate. Inside, you'll find weapons, a Trigun, and ammo. Use Jack to open the door; he will also get a map.
  4. 4
    Take the Trigun, proceed outside, and use Jack to open the gate again. Return to the Skiff and place the Trigun on the front. Drive the Skiff to advance.
  5. 5
    After the jump, go northeast towards another gate. Near this gate, you'll see two vehicles in the snow. The first vehicle has a corpse nearby with the 4th Collectible (Islander’s Lost Earring) and a Torque Bow.
  6. 6
    Go to the second vehicle to find ammo and 1 Component near the wheel.
  7. 7
    Return to the Skiff and head northwest to find a cabin. Inside, you'll find 1 Component near the crates and the Longshot Relic on a table. The crimson omen is on the cabin's wall.
  8. 8
    Take the Skiff and drive northwest towards a yellow flag, indicating a place to explore and complete side missions. This leads to the train tunnel.
  9. 9
    Side missions: From this chapter on, you can complete side missions to upgrade Jack's abilities. These collectibles are key items for side missions, which can be completed in Chapter 4.
  10. 10
    Near the cave entrance, find weapons. Advance into the tunnel. To your right is an ammo crate. On the right side of the train, find a Mulcher above some crates. Upgrade Jack's core to retrieve heavy weapons.
  11. 11
    Continue deeper into the tunnel to find a train car. Inside, you'll find a collectible and 1 Component. A Carrier will engage you. Use ice stalactites for cover and focus fire on its glowing chest.
  12. 12
    After defeating the Carrier, kick open the door to the train car. Inside, near a corpse, you'll find the 1st Collectible (Grindlift Maintenance Notes) and 1 Component on the other side. This collectible triggers the first of three side missions.
  13. 13
    Go back to the train car near the exit and climb it to reach the Skiff.
  14. 14
    Follow the train tracks to find another train car. Inside, near a corpse at the end, you'll find the 2nd Collectible (Faded Photograph).
  15. 15
    Head to the main objective marked on your map, which leads to the outsider campsite.
  16. 16
    At the campsite, find the 3rd and last Collectible (Lena’s Journal) near the campfire and 1 Component near the second tent, along with a Snub pistol and ammo.
