Chapter 3 information

This chapter is set up almost entirely underwater. It focuses on the search - and eventual retrieval - of a trailer of a truck located at the bottom. During this chapter you won't be meeting any enemies, and you don't have to worry about running out of oxygen in your oxygen tank. There are four secrets to find here, and three of them are located under the water. Aside from that, after reaching the deck of the ship, the protagonist can initiate two optional conversations with the members of the crew (the exact locations of every additional activating are marked in the text).

Finding the sunken trailer

After you regain control over the protagonist swim to the right side. Not far from the starting point in this chapter you will find the first treasure (Antique Padlock), located underneath the tree trunk lying on the bottom. The location can be seen on the above screenshot.

Now swim a little further. After reaching a place with large rocks turn slightly to the left and dive deeper to approach the floor. There's a second treasure (Chirigui Shark Ticket) of this chapter to collect here - the exact location can be seen on the above screenshot. You can now venture forth. Nate will soon reach the area with the sunken trailer of the truck lying on the floor. You will listen to a conversation with Jameson about plans of retrieving it.

Pulling the trailer back to the surface

Don't rush to reach the trailer, as there's another secret to uncover here. Start from the place at which Nathan had a conversation with Jameson and swim to the right. Stick to the rocks on the right side and look around the area carefully, as this treasure (Antique Pocketwatch) is hidden a lot better than the previous ones in this chapter. The exact location can be seen on the above screenshot.

The location you can find one of the chests at.

You can now swim to the trailer. If you want to you can examine it first. Pay attention to the axle of the trailer - you will be able to attach hooks there later - as well as to the hole in the side wall of it, which will allow you to take peek inside. You must reach the rear door of the trailer. Open it, swim inside of the trailer and check the cargo located inside of it. You will notice that two chests are missing. The first one is hidden directly beneath the trailer - you can examine it right now and Nathan will leave the retrieval of it for later. Swim out of the trailer and search the area on the right side, where you will be able to locate the second chest. Grab it and start swimming in the direction of the trailer. As the chest weights Nathan down, you must rhythmically press the X button whenever you want to swim higher. Swim with the chest inside of the trailer and place it near the other ones.

Leave the trailer and wait for the device to pull it out of the ocean floor to be descended. It has two hooks - each one of them needs to be attached to one of the aforementioned axles. After Nathan grabs the line, swim around one of the axles so that the rope wraps around it and attach it by pressing the Triangle button (like on the screenshot provided above).

The second chest can only be picked up after pulling the trailer off the floor.

After you attach both hooks to the axles of the trailer, swim away a little so that the object can be slightly raised. Use this opportunity to pick up the second chest that was crushed by the trailer (the one that you could only look at). Similarly to the one you've collected before, swim with the newly acquired chest to the trailer and place it alongside the rest of the cargo. Press the Triangle three times to secure the load, leave the trailer and swim to the device attached to it. You now have to wait until both Nathan and the trailer is pulled out of the water.

Meeting with Jameson on the ship

After boarding the ship, don't rush to meet with Jameson yet, as you will end the chapter prematurely. Instead, look around the deck of the ship. You can initiate two optional conversations with the members of the crew (Salvage Worker) here. You can recognize them thanks to the icons floating above their heads (one of the characters can be seen on the above screenshot).

Afterwards, explore the balcony of the ship located on the higher ground. On the right side of it you can find the last treasure (Antique Arcade Token), shown on the above screenshot. Now that you've completed all the additional activities in this chapter you can head on to meet with Jameson (he can be recognized by his red suit). Follow Jameson to the cargo you've just retrieved and examine the contents of it by pressing the Triangle button. Afterwards, this chapter will end.
