Uncover the Elusive Sasquatch in GTA 5’s “The Last One”
In the depths of Blaine County, a mysterious hunter sets Franklin Clinton on a thrilling quest to track down the elusive Sasquatch in “The Last One,” a captivating Strangers and Freaks mission in Grand Theft Auto V. This challenging side quest, unlocked only after achieving 100% game completion, tests your skills in pursuit, combat, and strategy. Dive into our comprehensive guide to master the mission’s objectives and claim the coveted Gold Medal.
You first need to beat the game in 100%
Availability: Franklin
Location: You get the opportunity to start this mission after you complete the game in 100%. You can check on your current progress from the level of the stats window. Furthermore, the detailed information concerning all of the activities for the 100% completion of the game can be found in “GTA V – Game Guide”.
This mission does not become available right after you attain the 100% game completion status. You need to be patient and spend a lot of time doing some other activities, and wait for the moment when there will appear a question mark in the North-Western part of the map (close to Mount Chiliad). Go there as Franklin to meet a hunter there (the above screenshot). From him you will learn about a beast in this region.
The region where you need to look for the beast
After you have listened to the conversation, go to the place with footprints to the North-West of the mission’s starting point. Walk on foot because using a means of transport will render you unable to complete this mission in 100%.
Try to shoot the beast with the scoped sniper rifle
After you get there, explore the entire marked area and you should be able to notice the running beast, which you of course need to follow. During the chase, try using the sniper rifle to cripple the beast but, do not target the head, and different body parts. At the same time, try to hit the beast, at least, three times. For tracking the beast, listen out for the sounds it makes and use the red dots appearing on your radar.
Do not allow wild animals kill you
An additional disadvantage is the fact that, along his way, Franklin will bump into several wild animals. It is a good thing to deal with them quickly by using a good assault rifle, for a change.
The chase ends either after you shoot the best on the head (which is not an easy task) or at the cliff shown in the above screenshot. Using any weapon, shoot at the beast, thanks to which you will determine that this was only a man in disguise. This is the end of the hunt.
Rewards for the completion of the mission: none
Requirements for the completion of the mission in 100%:
- Wounded – You need to shoot the beast three times, at least, by targeting any part of the body apart from the head.
- Hunter – During the chase after the beast, you need to kill, at least, four wild animals. This can be both carnivores as well as elks.
- Mr. Green – You need to play through the entire hunt on foot.
What makes “The Last One” mission unique compared to other GTA 5 missions
What Makes “The Last One” Mission Unique in GTA 5:
-
Unlocking Criteria: The mission is unique because it requires players to achieve 100% game completion to unlock it. This makes it a special reward for dedicated players who have explored every aspect of the game.
-
Sasquatch Hunt: Unlike most GTA 5 missions, “The Last One” involves hunting a Sasquatch, which is a mythical creature. This adds a touch of fantasy and humor to the game, setting it apart from the more serious or satirical missions.
-
Exploration and Completionism: The mission encourages players to explore the game’s world thoroughly, as it is only accessible after completing all other content. This aspect appeals to completionists who enjoy discovering hidden elements in games.
-
Narrative and Gameplay Variety: “The Last One” offers a distinct narrative and gameplay experience compared to the main storyline missions, which often focus on heists, gang conflicts, or character development. This mission provides a refreshing change of pace with its focus on a mythical creature hunt.
How does the player’s choice at the end of “The Last One” mission affect the game’s outcome
The “The Last One” mission in GTA 5 does not directly involve player choices that affect the game’s outcome in the way that the final mission does. However, the final mission of GTA 5, which involves a choice between killing Michael, killing Trevor, or sparing both (the “Death Wish” option), significantly impacts the game’s ending.
-
Killing Michael or Trevor: These choices lead to a tragic ending where Franklin must confront the consequences of his decision. If Franklin chooses to kill one of his friends, the game concludes with a sense of loss and betrayal.
-
Death Wish: This option allows all three protagonists to survive, leading to a more positive ending where they work together to overcome their enemies. This choice emphasizes the theme of friendship and cooperation that is central to the game’s narrative.
The “The Last One” mission itself is more about completing a unique side quest involving a Sasquatch hunt rather than influencing the game’s overall narrative outcome. It is a special mission available after achieving 100% game completion, offering a distinct gameplay experience without altering the main storyline’s conclusion.
