Days Gone Expect the Worst Walkthrough

Expect the Worst is a Main Story Mission in Days Gone. This walkthrough will guide you through all objectives of the “Expect the Worst” Main Quest.

Expect the Worst Starting Location

This mission will immediately start after the end of I Knew These People. This mission starts in Lake Crater.

Clear the Warehouse

After entering the facility through the emergency exit, you’ll need to eliminate some enemies. Equip your best weapon and make a clean, quick sweep of whomever is in your path.

Locate the Atrium

Have Sarah open the next doors in your path and be ready to open fire as some enemies are awaiting you behind said door. After clearing the enemies behind the doors, get rid of the two snipers on the roof.

After entering the room, take a moment to stock up. There are many items to collect here, including a Tourism and a Character collectible. Then, approach the door Sarah is trying to ID. However, Deacon fears that the enemies are right behind the door ready to shoot him and Sarah dead. Time for a different plan!

Get to the Atrium

Sarah has been locked out of security, but she somehow manages to get Deacon a temporary access code, allowing Sarah to access the atrium from the roof and kill some guys while Deacon IDs his way in from the door.

Boost Sarah to the Roof

Exit to the balcony and climb the air vent to boost Sarah up to the roof.

Use AIRI Code to Enter Atrium

Approach the panel and Deacon will enter the temporary access code Sarah gave him. Enter the atrium and a new wave of enemies needs to be eliminated

Clear the Atrium of Enemies

Equip your best weapon and make a clean, quick sweep of whomever is in your path.

Find Head of Security

After eliminating all enemies, go to your mission marker to start a new cutscene. In this cutscene Sarah will ruthlessly and cold-bloodedly kill the head of security for not allowing her former work colleagues to leave the compound and go back to their families. Sarah’s ruthlessness highly disturbs Deacon. Outside the building, Deacon thinks of radioing Rikki and Booze to let Lost Lake know about the food and water available at the Cloverdale. Mission complete.

This concludes Expect the Worst mission in Days Gone and transitions seamlessly to “We Couldn’t Take the Risk”.
