Follow our comprehensive Far Cry New Dawn 'Find Hope' walkthrough to gather resources, craft the Saw Launcher, and clear the Holland Valley Tunnel to reach Prosperity.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    After Carmina pulls you from the river, she'll explain that the Highwaymen have taken Rush and are still in the area. She wants you to accompany her to Prosperity to report to her mother, Kim.
  2. 2
    You've lost your gear, so search the shacks for resources. Look for glowing plants like Bougainvillea and Yucca along the riverbank for healing.
  3. 3
    Carmina mentions the Highwaymen blocked the tunnel to Hope County, requiring firepower to pass. Grab the nearby bat as a melee weapon.
  4. 4
    Follow Carmina under the bridge and search the old mine building near the river. It contains a Workbench.
  5. 5
    Gather 40 components and 40 duct tape to craft the Saw Launcher. You'll also find the necessary saw blades within the mine.
  6. 6
    Craft the Saw Launcher at the Workbench. This is a single-shot, silent, and deadly weapon effective against multiple targets.
  7. 7
    Follow Carmina south towards the marked tunnel. Engage the two Highwaymen on the dirt road using stealth or the Saw Launcher. Loot their bodies.
  8. 8
    Approach the Holland Valley Tunnel, defended by over a dozen Highwaymen. Scout from the brush near the derelict vehicle.
  9. 9
    Enter the tunnel via the bus, not by climbing atop it and using the zipline. Use the Saw Launcher on the group of hostiles at the entrance. Aim for explosive barrels if possible.
  10. 10
    Be prepared for advancing hostiles and a mounted machinegun inside the tunnel. Stay to the left, using the building's structure to funnel enemies and avoid the mounted gun.
  11. 11
    Carmina will join the fight but may get wounded. Revive her if safe, but prioritize your own survival. Heal her when it's safe.
  12. 12
    Watch for flanking enemies and target barrels near hostiles. Be aware of the mounted gun and enemies on structures deeper in the tunnel. A caged wolf may escape and attack everyone.
  13. 13
    Once the tunnel is clear, loot for ammo and resources. It's recommended to keep the Saw Launcher.
  14. 14
    Proceed into Hope County with Carmina to meet Kim in Prosperity. You'll learn about the supply train and Thomas Rush's capture.
  15. 15
    Speak to Carmina at the marker. She is now available as a companion. Use the nearby duffel bag to customize your character.
  16. 16
    Speak to Kim. She explains the need to recruit Specialists and rescue Rush. Three Specialists (Bean, Selene, Grace Armstrong) are now marked on your map.
  17. 17
    Kim reveals Rush is likely held at the old mine northeast of Prosperity. The mission 'Breakout' will become active, but it's recommended to tackle it later.
  18. 18
    Kim emphasizes the importance of ethanol for settlement upgrades. Liberating the ten Highwaymen outposts will yield ethanol.
