There are 15 base jumps, five of each type. After every jump a Base Jumps panel shows your accuracy, time and how many of each type you have done, so you can always see what is left.
How they work
Walk into a parachute icon to start. Free fall steers with the movement keys or stick, and the attack button opens the chute. Once it is open, shift your weight to steer and use the two air brakes to turn sharply or slow down. Land in the center of the target for the best accuracy, but anywhere on the target counts.
- Target jumps: jump off a building and land on a pink target in the street. The objective reads Base jump onto the checkpoint.
- Vehicle jumps: land on a moving vehicle, usually a slow flatbed truck. Two of them start with Luis on a motorbike, which you ride off a rooftop ramp before opening the chute. The objective reads Base jump onto the moving vehicle.
- Helicopter jumps: you are lifted into the air by helicopter. Open the parachute and glide through the floating rings on the way down, then land on the target.

Jump by jump
1. Purgatory motorbike jump
A motorbike waits on the roof by a ramp. Ride hard off the ramp toward the river, kick free, open the chute and steer for the boat moving along the water below. Aim slightly ahead of the boat, since it keeps going while you fall.
2. Westdyke helicopter jump
The helicopter drops you over the Alderney coast. Glide through each ring in turn and finish on the target in Leftwood.
3. Happiness Island helicopter jump
Drop from the helicopter over the harbor, line up the rings and finish on the target by the statue on Happiness Island.
4. The Triangle target jump
Jump from the roof of the tower in The Triangle and steer down to the target near City Hall.
5. Tudor helicopter jump
Leave the helicopter over Tudor, glide through the rings and land on the target in Tudor.
6. Alderney City vehicle jump
Jump from the rooftop and steer for the flatbed truck driving along the road. Open the chute high so you have time to match its speed.
7. Cerveza Heights target jump
Press the prompt to jump from the building, then drift over to the target in Meadow Hills.
8. Dukes helicopter jump
A night jump over Dukes. Follow the rings down to the target in Meadow Hills.

12. Star Junction vehicle jump

Another Star Junction rooftop, this time over Columbus Avenue. Fall, open the chute and land on the moving vehicle.

Jump from the rooftop in Easton and land on the vehicle in the street below.
15. Broker helicopter jump
The last helicopter jump starts over Broker. Glide through the rings and land on the target in Hove Beach.
Tips
- For vehicle jumps, open the chute early and use the air brakes to bleed off speed so you drop straight down onto the target.
- Rings are easier if you open the chute a little earlier than feels natural.
- A missed jump can be retried right away from the parachute icon.
