Sword Crossed Lovers Treasure Hunt Walkthrough – Far Cry 6

Tags:

The Sword Crossed Lovers treasure hunt is one of the shorter Far Cry 6 side hunts, tucked into Calavera Cave on the east coast of Barrial near the Oku Creek Checkpoint. It’s a straightforward dive-and-climb hunt with no puzzles, just careful platforming and a swim through a sunken ship’s hold to reach the chest. Along the way you’ll also pass a Hidden Histories document, so keep an eye out for it during the ship section.

Smash the entrance to the cave and go inside. You have to complete the whole tour to get to the chest. Follow the staircase up and use the grapple on the ceiling where it’s broken to swing on the higher platform.

Continue on the path and follow the ship’s wheels back into a cave higher up. Here’s you have to smash another barricade to get inside. Make your way through the cave by just jumping – no grappling here – until you get to the ship.

The greenish-yellow glow in the water of the ship looks suspicious but it’s where you have to dive through to the other side. Don’t miss the Hidden Histories document here. A skeleton is holding a book at the other end of the dive. Climb up onto the deck and use the cannon.

All you need to do now is use the grapple on the ceiling to climb back up and get to the chest.
