Walkthrough

8 steps across 4 objectives

Step 1 of 8
  1. Follow Milena

    Push through the club crowd after Milena and follow the on-screen prompts to learn Attack and Block.

    Don't let her get too far ahead; losing her fails the mission. Use View Objectives if you lose sight of her.

  2. Follow Milena

    Get past the bouncers with a Parry followed by a Counter Attack, then take down the bouncer blocking her route.

  3. Follow Milena

    When Price spots Makarov getting into the elevator, beat the bouncers nearby and the two Konni guards inside, then pick up their Krait P68 pistol.

  4. Locate Makarov

    Fight across the upper floor, clearing the entertainment rooms and the hallway, where you can grab an SMG.

    Shooting a civilian fails the mission, so pick your shots in the crowded rooms.

  5. Locate Makarov

    Clear the kitchen, then head to the manager's office for a cutscene with Milena.

  6. Locate Makarov

    Go up to the rooftops, kill the Konni guards there and tackle Makarov to start the chase.

  7. Chase Makarov

    Keep up with Makarov across the rooftops using vaults, slides and climbs. There's no shooting in this part.

    Jump out of a slide to keep your speed. If you fall too far behind, reload the checkpoint.

  8. Fight Makarov

    Fight Makarov with Attack, Block, Parry and Takedowns, the same moves you used on the bouncers, until Price pins him.

Achievements

Safety's On

On Hardened or higher, clear the kitchen without firing a shot. Throw bottles from the kitchen shelves to disarm enemies, then pull them into the hallway for takedowns.

Can't Touch This

On Veteran or higher, beat Makarov in the final fight without getting hit. Block and parry, and reload the checkpoint if you take a hit.

Rewards for finishing

  • No More Rules Calling Card

Veteran tips

  • For Can't Touch This, use Veteran rather than Realism: Game8 reports that some fight prompts don't appear on Realism.

Story

Five days before the invasion, Price is working alone and off the books in New York. He follows Milena Romanova, a financier connected to Makarov and the Konni Group, into a nightclub and fights his way up through its VIP floor.

Milena won’t give up Makarov’s location when Price corners her, but Price catches up with Makarov anyway and chases him across the rooftops. The two fight hand to hand in the snow until Price pins him down. (Guides disagree on whether Makarov dies here.)

Afterward, armed operatives grab Price and bring him to Valeria Garza, who offers him a way to reach the Archer.
