Uncharted 3: Chapter 7 - Stay in the Light walkthrough Uncharted 3 guide, walkthrough

Last update: 16 April 2020

This page of the guide contains the walkthrough of chapter 7 of Uncharted 3 Drake's Deception. The chapter is titled Stay in the Light and it is also a very valuable hint. Staying in lighted areas is required to avoid being devoured by spider creatures. In the rest of the stage, for a change, Nate must escape from the burning estate and at the same time kill the thugs encountered on the way.

We will find ourselves in a difficult situation. Not only we will lose our newly acquired trophy, we will also end up in a room filled with spiders [1].

To avoid being eaten alive, we must keep close to Sullivan holding the torch. If we are swarmed by the spiders, we can shake them off by pressing the Square. While standing in the middle of the room, we look around to find a hole in the wall [1]. We run under it and give Sullivan a leg up [2]. Once he gives us his hand, we jump out and climb up the cave.

Now we need to sprint through narrow corridors, with spiders chasing us. To increase our chances of survival, we need to stay in the middle of the track as much as possible and we cannot stop. When the situation starts to look terrible, we will jump through the door which Sullivan will close behind us [1].

Unfortunately, the spiders will pass through the ceiling and we will be forced to flee. While running through the corridor, jump onto the winding staircase. At its top we launch ourselves at Sullivan, who will drag us up [1]. We now need to jump off the tower to finally escape the spiders.

By looking around we will find a hatch [1] through which we must jump down. Sullivan will find out that the door is locked and we will have to look for another way. So we go to the right, jump through the hole located around the corner [2] and go over the wall towards the chandelier.

We jump across to the other side of the room with the help of the hanging lamp [1]. Going up to the ceiling [2], we will collapse a piece of the floor which Sullivan will use to join us.

Moving deeper into the room, we find a hole in the floor, through which we jump to run into our competition, preparing to burn the estate [1]. We eliminate the first two enemies and then we find a nearby destroyed corridor [2] that we need to use to get to the other side of the building (to reach the place where we took out the two thugs).

Enemies will appear during our ascent of the walls. Sullivan will protect us [1]. Unfortunately, in spite of everything, we will receive damage from time to time, so we need to accelerate our ascent. When we are finally close to the enemies, we deal with them using our fists [2].

Once the area is cleared, we help Sullivan get to us by dropping a wooden beam [1]. While our comrade will be going through the beam, we take out the enemies shooting him [2].

When we find ourselves in a dead end, we have to wait for a while until the fire starts to consume the wall, which will then be knocked over by several enemies. We eliminate the enemies and go through the opened passage [1].

Going further, we descend the stairs and run down the corridor that will collapse under our feet. We put a few steps on the beam on the left wall [1] and when it starts to collapse, we climb onto the wall and further onto the ceiling [2]. We will get to the other side of the room and will be able to descend near Sullivan.

We break down the door together with our companion and start the encounter with the muscle head [1]. In order to easily defeat him, we need to counter his strikes, so that we will be able to launch several effective attacks.

Once the encounter is over, we go down the stairs and initiate another fight with a group of opponents [1]. The exit doors below will be barricaded [2]. We deal with the remaining enemies and run downstairs.

We go to the left and use the fallen boards [1] to enter the room. Once the exit doors are blocked, we run up to Sullivan [2] and slide down the falling floor onto the burning staircase.

We go upstairs as quickly as possible. A part of the stairs will collapse in front of us [1]. Once that happens, we jump onto the wall and climb upwards to join Sullivan. A few steps further we get stuck in a wooden floor and when Sullivan pulls us out we will deal with several opponents. When we are almost at the top of the stairs, they will collapse and we will have to help Sullivan pull up [2].

After the next collapses, we climb up towards the door and go through it to enter the attic. We leave it through the collapsed fragment of the floor [1], head straight ahead and then to the left to run into a group of enemies [2].

Once the battle is over, we go along the tilted fragment of the floor [1] to enter a room. Running forward and to the right, you will reach a ladder before which flames will burst [2]. Despite this, we jump on the ladder and go to the roof.

Now we must quickly run to Sullivan and then run over the crumbling roof before the tower collapses [1]. If we succeed, we will leave the burning mansion.
