Confront Joseph Seed in the final mission of Far Cry 5. This guide covers reviving friends, defeating Joseph, and escaping to Dutch's bunker.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Reach the Father’s compound: Prepare thoroughly with health boosts, weapon perks, ample med kits, body armor, and explosives. Piloting a chopper, approach the church to meet Joseph. He will offer you a choice: leave Hope County or resist.
  2. 2
    Revive your friends [1]: In a Bliss-induced arena, your companions will attack you. Focus on taking them down to revive them and turn them back to your side against Joseph. He will also attack; use a shotgun or similar weapon to keep him at bay while reviving your friends. Once all three are revived, confront Joseph.
  3. 3
    Revive your friends [2]: Joseph will again turn your friends against you. Use explosives to take out multiple companions at once and revive them. With your friends back, push the fight against Joseph until he retreats.
  4. 4
    Revive your friends [3]: This is the final stage. Joseph will turn all your friends, including Hurk, against you. Prioritize reviving them and use all available resources to defeat Joseph.
  5. 5
    Reach Dutch’s bunker before it’s too late [02:40]: The world is in chaos. You have 2 minutes and 40 seconds to reach Dutch's bunker on Dutch's Island. Drive a truck with the other deputies and Joseph, following the objective marker and avoiding the burning environment. Failing this timed section requires a restart.
Tips
  • Consider Perks like Health Boosts (up to 2), Rifle Mastery, Ammo Bag, and the Journey Pack for extra Med Kits.
  • Recommended weaponry includes a competent assault rifle (AK-47), an LMG, a shotgun (Spas-12), and potentially a rocket launcher.
  • Stock up on Med Kits, Body Armor, and all types of explosives.
  • Explosives are particularly useful when multiple friends are grouped together during the revival phases.
  • Prioritize taking out Hurk quickly if he's using his rocket launcher against you.
  • The timed drive to Dutch's bunker is challenging; focus on the objective marker and navigating the destruction.
