Complete walkthrough for Part 17 of Gears of War 4, covering the Kryll highway chase and the Last Stand sniper section. Tips for Insane difficulty included.
Walkthrough
- 1Begin by driving on the highway. You'll encounter Kryll. Press X to switch between driving and firing the UV Turret. Kill the Kryll that appear after the first corner from a clocktower.
- 2Continue on the highway, hopping over a broken section and navigating around rubble. More Kryll will emerge from a building on your right; eliminate them.
- 3More Kryll will appear on the right; deal with them. Be aware of Kryll attacking from behind if you linger too long.
- 4You'll reach a point where you must smash through rubble. After this, you can go around to the right, followed by a jump off a small broken section.
- 5A building directly ahead will be swarming with Kryll. Destroy them all.
- 6More Kryll will come from behind. If you've cleared the front, turn around when the attendant says "SIX O' CLOCK!" and eliminate the threat.
- 7An off-ramp to the right is ahead. Take it and follow the small road until you can't go further.
- 8Make a right. You'll reach an underpass. Kryll will emerge from a building ahead and to the left; fire to take them out.
- 9Make a right, another right, and a third right to return to the highway.
- 10This is where you can choose to run for the end. Smash through all rubble, hit jumps, and burn rubber until the end-of-chapter cutscene.
- 11Last Stand Section: Head down the walkway. A doorway on your left contains regenerating ammo boxes and a Longshot. Pick up the Longshot.
- 12Engage distant Locusts using the Longshot. Avoid using the Lancer or the turret at the end of the walkway as they are less effective.
- 13At the end of the walkway, behind a broken wall, you'll find a Longshot and grenades.
- 14Shoot out of one of the windows in the room with the burning toilet to deal with the first enemies and an Emergence Hole.
- 15Two Locusts are on the roof directly ahead. Zoom in with the Longshot to spot them.
- 16Use the Y button to locate the next Emergence Hole and snipe from behind cover. Replenish ammo from the regenerating boxes inside the building if needed.
- 17Slightly left of the emergence hole, a sniper is in a hole in the wall. You can shoot the roof to make it cave in or snipe him directly.
- 18When enemies come from buildings on the far right, hide behind a low wall or the broken wall and snipe them.
- 19At the second checkpoint, a Boomer appears. Headshot it and then kill its minions hiding in buildings.
- 20When Boomers appear behind you, look for a giant rolling barrel. Shoot the propane tank beneath it to cause an explosion that crushes the Boomers.
Tips
- Insane Difficulty: On the highway, kill everything on the first highway and normal road, then RUN on the second highway. This chapter is incredibly difficult on Insane; you'll likely finish with very little health.
- Junker Controls: Press X to switch between driving and firing the UV Turret.
- Last Stand Weapon Choice: The Longshot is highly recommended for the Last Stand section due to the long-range enemies.
- Ammo Regeneration: Ammo boxes in the Last Stand section regenerate, so don't be afraid to use them.
- Boomer Encounter: Use the environment (propane tank) to your advantage against the Boomers.
