How To Release The Prisoner In Alcatraz
Search Trash Bins To Find The Prison Keys In THPS 3+4
To release the prisoner in Alcatraz,THPS 3+4players mustknock over a series of trash bins spread out throughout the level. There are a total of five bins throughout the level – the blue trash cans don’t count, only the larger green wheelie bins count toward your search.
To search a bin,you must tip it over, either by grinding a nearby rail or just by running directly into it.
Upon hitting the fifth trash can, you will find the Cellblock Keys. Bring these back to the cellblock door at the top of the prison, and you will immediately initiate a cutscene in which a ghostly prisoner flies out of Alcatraz as he celebrates his freedom. You canreach the Secret Tapefrom here and a Skill Point node from this newly-unlocked interior prison area.
