Mission walkthrough

  1. Meet the contact upstairs

    Drive Playboy to the apartment and follow him to the third-floor meeting. Before entering, make sure you have health, armour and ammunition for a confined fight.

  2. Work through the ambush

    After the deal collapses, use doorframes and stairwell corners as cover. Follow Playboy’s route through the building and across the roof section, clearing officers who block the way. Avoid rushing past him into a new group while the previous floor still has enemies.

  3. Escape together

    At street level, get a vehicle with a passenger seat and wait for Playboy. Break police line of sight, move outside the search area and then drive him to his apartment. Reaching Algonquin does not remove the need to keep him alive.

Key point

Algonquin opens during this mission. Finish the escape and delivery before treating the newly accessible island as free-roam territory.
