Last Play – Make Ends Meat walkthrough

Reach the slaughterhouse

Drive to the Raven Slaughterhouse in Cypress Flats. It is night, and Gerald says the rivals run the lab from here, so expect armed men both in the yard and inside. Stop short of the building and approach on foot, taking out the guards outside before you go in. Look for the open roller door and enter along the side wall where the crates give you cover.

Fight through to the safe

Inside, follow the objective marker toward the safe. Fighters hide behind meat racks, crates and corners, so move from cover to cover and clear each room before you step out. Hanging carcasses block your view in the main hall, so use the radar to see red dots before you enter. Stay close to your team and keep an eye on health, because the fighters appear from several sides.

Crack the safe

At the safe, start the lock mini-game. Hold the control to turn the dial and stop where the vibration is strongest. Lock 1 turns one way, lock 2 turns the other and lock 3 goes back again. Turning the wrong way resets the safe, so go slowly. Once the last lock clicks, open the safe and take the formula. Make sure the room is clear first, as the fighters will keep arriving.

Chase down the gang boss

Gerald then tells you to take the boss out. The boss flees in a car, and more fighters stand between you and the exit. Shoot your way out through the loading area, grab a fast vehicle outside and follow the marker. Stay close enough to shoot but avoid ramming other cars. A partner can drive while you shoot. When the boss goes down, regroup at Gerald’s apartment.
