This time trial merges racing and drone warfare like Knight Time Strike, though this challenge is wider-ranging. Starting in Miagani Island, this race detours into some unexpected places, starting with a dockside leap clean over the water onto Founders’ Island—no bridges needed here. The first combat encounter also takes place in Founders’ Island, against a small contingent of four Rattler drones. Eliminate them as fast as you can, then continue south across the bridge back into Miagani Island.

More mandatory leaps are packed into Drone Zone than in other time trials combined.

Be ready for some unexpected twists in the route, including this diversion up an onramp and then off the edge.

The second encounter comes in central Miagani, after cutting back there in a roundabout way, which includes a leap north off the upper deck of the highway before cutting right back south through back alleys. The combat encounter in central Miagani is against a half-dozen Rattler drones, which should be nothing you can’t handle by now. Dispatch them cleanly and quickly to move on to the third encounter as fast as possible.

The path to the third encounter involves a thorough and speedy tour of the grounds of WayneTower, involving two huge jumps and a detour through the underground parking area. Finally emerging from WayneTower parking, you’ll engage the last cohort of drones in a suffocating space in the shadow of Grand Avenue Station. Apart from the proximity, the other thing to keep in mind here is that one of the Rattlers is an armored Diamondback variant. Destroy the last drones to clear the challenge.

Getting to Grand Avenue Station for your final date with drones involves cutting through WayneTower’s enormous parking substructure.
