Act 4:1 - The Great Escape | Walkthrough Gears of War 4 Guide

Number of collectibles: 1

The documents are lying on the ground.

You will begin this chapter with a walk. Right at the very beginning there is also a collectible for you to find. After you reach the shaft, through the hole in the wall, turn left and right next to a cart, on the ground, there will be documents. Afterwards, keep advancing through the shaft until you reach a door, which you will have to kick open.

Driving a mech is pure fun.

In the new off-shoot of the shaft, you will find a mech that you have driven previously. Use it to get rid of the Locust Cocoons. When you achieve that, Drones and Juvies will attack you. It is best to ram into them all and reach the next location, in which you also must dispose of the Locust Cocoons.

When you are finished, another Snatcher will appear and you will have to hold your ground and fight it. Use the same tactics as before, only now you have a distinct advantage, as when he manages to catch you, you will only be temporarily immobilised. It cannot kill you this way.

Go back using the same route that you followed to get here.

When the fight is over keep advancing, and you will have one more nest to kill on your way. After you destroy the chain which blocks the door, you will reach a familiar location. After a short run, you will encounter another Snatcher and numerous Drones.

When the Snatcher devours you, it can carry you off the map and kill you.

It is worth it to use the Buzzkill here, which you could find by the entrance to the room. This time the Snatcher can kill you by devouring you, and carrying you off of the battlefield. You should position yourself on the right side, on the elevated terrain and wait for the Snatcher to jump down, as up to that moment it can one-shot a teammate of yours. After the fight is won you must run to the transporter, until a cutscene appears.

During your ride upwards avoid falling objects, and destroy any obstacles.

During the ride upwards you must shoot the red containers. It is best to aim at them using the right mouse button. After you reach the top, the act will end.
