How to Complete Returning Home Challenge 1

Each step comes from the Challenge wording plus named weapons, executions or places. This page does not invent a path the game does not name.

  1. Step 01

    Play Returning Home

    What to do. Challenge 1 only registers during this chapter.

    Returning Home walkthrough →

  2. Step 02

    Find a Campfire Pin opportunity

    What to do. Only the Campfire Pin context execution registers this Challenge.

    Doesn't count

    • A normal kill.
    • A different context execution than the one this Challenge names.

Why Didn't Challenge 1 Count?

  1. 1. Did you complete the named action?

    No: this Challenge only registers when the official wording is met.

    Yes: continue.

  2. 2. Did you meet every named condition?

    Check the numbered Challenge, the named target, place, weapon, execution or state. A weapon cinematic is not an environment execution.

  3. 3. Did you start from a clean chapter attempt?

    If you resumed from a checkpoint or partial run, use a fresh Returning Home attempt as a controlled retry.

  4. 4. Everything looked clean but still no credit?

    Then a tracking problem remains possible — after the requirement and a clean retry, not before.
