Start your Uncharted 4 adventure! This walkthrough for 'The Beginning 2840' covers the thrilling boat chase, mine evasion, and your first firefight. Let's get started!

Alright, let's dive into Uncharted 4: A Thief's End! We're kicking things off with the Prologue, titled 'The Beginning 2840'. This is where the action immediately throws you into the deep end, so buckle up!

You'll start off in a boat with Sam, and you're both being chased. Your first task is to get to the island. Keep that accelerator (R2) held down and don't hesitate to ram into those smaller boats. Smashing them is a quick way to take them out.

Things get a bit more intense when a larger boat starts chasing you and dropping mines. Your main goal here is to dodge those mines as best you can. Eventually, you'll get hit, and Nate will be thrown from the boat. When that happens, quickly hold X to surface. Keep an eye out for the boat heading your way, and when you see it, hold O to dive underwater. This is how you'll narrowly avoid its propellers.

Once you resurface and make your way back to the boat, Sam will be busy trying to fix the engine. This is your cue to provide cover. Hop behind some cover on the same side of the boat as Sam and get ready for your first firefight.

The initial enemies on the first boat are pretty standard, but keep an eye out for an armored enemy who will rush to the left side of the boat. This guy is a priority because he's armed with a Grenade Launcher and can dish out some serious damage. Take him down fast!
