Mission walkthrough

  1. Take the red-phone follow-up

    Finish Taxi Drivers Must Die! and return with maximum Loony respect. Obtain a serviceable Zaibatsu Z-Type before approaching the first group of targets.

  2. Hit the three Yakuza lieutenants

    Use the Z-Type to run down Johnny Zoo’s marked lieutenants. Line up deliberate approaches rather than making repeated uncontrolled turns that give a target time to flee.

  3. Change to the Yakuza car

    After the first three targets are eliminated, steal a Miara. Wait for the objective to switch before starting the second set of attacks.

  4. Hit the three Zaibatsu lieutenants

    Drive the Miara into Zaibatsu territory and run down Trey Welsh’s marked lieutenants. Watch each target’s movement and confirm the final completion message.

Key point

The gang cars are part of the deception. Use the Z-Type for the Yakuza targets and the Miara for the Zaibatsu targets, rather than clearing both groups with one vehicle.
