Meet Hakon – your new ally in town. To move forward, you’ll need a Biomarker. Follow him across the rooftops, and should you run out of stamina, don’t worry – he’s got your back. Along the way, you’ll also need to secure an Inhibitor. Fortunately, both can be found in the same place.

2 – Search the Roof for Loot

You arrive at a Roof Grove, a haven of towering trees rich with loot and crafting materials. The key to progressing your quest lies in the large chest tucked away inside the small hut.

3 – Follow Hakon

Follow Hakon as he leads the way. Along the journey, he’ll pause to introduce you to a faction known as The Peacekeepers. After the introduction, continue trailing him to the rooftop, where he aims to loot a large airdrop box.

4 – Search the Airdrop

The box is empty, but you can use the GRE key provided by Spike’s contact in the tunnels. This key will allow you to unlock special doors and boxes, proving useful in the future.

5 – Get to the Safe Zone

As night falls, you’re introduced to the UV light – your safe haven in the dark. Stay within its glow to protect yourself. Follow Hakon to the Bazaar, the largest settlement in Trinity Territory. However, entry isn’t granted without a Biomarker. As you make your way to the next location, you’ll need to dodge hordes of zombies and fend them off until you’re allowed inside. Just as things seem under control, a screecher zombie spots you, triggering a frantic chase.

6 – Follow Hakon

Pursue Hakon across the rooftops as you evade your pursuers. Once you reach the door, engage in a conversation with him.

7 – Kill the Virals/Help Hakon

Defend yourself against the zombies as Hakon handles the negotiations. Once the battle is won, speak with him to proceed.

8 – Go to Sleep

Use the bed in the “Civilian’s Hideout”. Pick up the Tapes Collectible “Journal of a Nightrunner #1” at the TV while you’re here.

It all began in the ’80s when I was just 7 years old. Starting with basic arcade games, I soon delved into titles like Loom and Monkey Island by Lucasarts. Throughout the years, as I indulged in more and more games, I consistently sought clear guides to swiftly navigate my gameplay. Now, it’s my turn to contribute back to the community.
