Just Cause 3 eGuide Story Missions

The Great Escape

Annika calls you after the end of Derailed Extraction. She asks for a meeting, over in Maestrale. Travel there and see what she’s planning. It sounds like a prison break!

Go Into Underground Prison and Activate Two Switches

Glide down the hill toward the prison entrance. It’s super easy to break in there. And no one is in your way as you head down. That’s, well, actually rather alarming.

Things go pear shaped very quickly. Soldiers pop out in an ambush. Use close quarters weaponry to fight through the corridors. Search for the two switches as you go; they are on opposite sides of the floor. Both are against the far walls and are surrounded by electrical paneling.

Hack the terminal by the large, lower door after you’ve pushed both switches.

Move Deeper Into the Prison

You must do the same thing on the lower level; find two switches. However, this area has snipers all over the place. Don’t try for the high ground this time. Stay in the area between the buildings to block the line of sight between Rico and the snipers. This lets you fight groups of enemies here and there rather than getting shot by everyone at once.

If enemies pile up in one particular area, use grenades or a rocket to blow them apart. Otherwise, stick with your guns to eliminate targets that are somewhat isolated.

One of the switches is closer to the center of the room compared to last time; it’s not on the outer wall. Push both buttons and then hack the terminal that unlocks. You gain access to the generator level.

Destroy Both Generators

The enemies in the next room have a great angle of fire against you. Use the depression where you enter the room as cover, and return there to regain health if anything goes wrong. Blast everyone down before you explore too much, because their damage output is quite decent if you simply ignore them and try to run through.

Use the switches in this room to expose each generator, and attack the machines directly to blow them apart. As soon as you finish, hurry to the surface via a vertical tunnel here.

Defeat the Soldiers

Grapple out of the tunnel and back into fresh air. Glide to the next waypoint, and help the escaping prisoners fight off Di Ravello’s men. Focus on the snipers in the guard towers first; they’re some of the deadliest targets, but they die quickly if attacked.

The mission ends after you save your allies and kill off all of the militia forces in the area.
