Featuring both traditional combat encounters and one intense sniper battle, the Suburbs chapter can be tough to get through in The Last of Us Part 1. However, this chapter also allows for some extensive exploration with tons of missable collectibles and character moments, as well as a whole side story that players may miss.

The Sewers

After the cutscene, Henry and Sam will go left. Turn right and head towards the boat in the distance. There, players will find supplies as well as a Savage Starlight comic, an artifact, and a firefly pendant.

From the bottom of the boat, there'll be an opening that players can crouch under. Directly across is a log; hop over the log to find more supplies, as well as to unlock more dialogue with Ellie.

Return to the boat. Directly in front of the boat, Sam will be standing on some small stone ledges. Go up to him and climb the ledges to reach a large sewer.

Go up to the sewer and press the triangle button to try to lift it up with Henry. Hold the triangle button to lift the sewer door, letting Ellie and Sam inside. In a moment, Joel and Henry will enter the sewer. Inside, turn on Joel's flashlight and follow everyone. In the sewer hallway, there'll be a small opening leaking water to the right. Climb here and turn left to find a firefly pendant.

Return to the main passageway. Eventually, there'll be a fork in the sewer passageway. Henry and Sam will go left; follow Ellie and check out the right side of the path.

Down this path will be a room full of supplies behind a gate. The gate is blocked by a cart; to the left of the room is a small sewer grate. Press the triangle button to pull it open so Ellie can crawl through. She'll unlock the door, allowing Joel to enter. Inside will be supplies and an artifact.

Walk out the door and return to Henry and Sam straight ahead. Keep following them until they get to a large open area. Henry, Sam, and Ellie will need to cross via the platforms nearby, but Joel will have to get the power going.

Jump into the water; a firefly pendant can be found underneath the sunken car. Then swim to the large gate on the right side of the room. Henry will try to turn a nearby wheel to get it open, but it's jammed.

Dive underwater, where a pipe will be jammed on the left side of the gate. Swim up to it and press the triangle button to pull it out. Henry will then open the gate, allowing Joel to swim to the other side.

Swim over and climb up the stairs. To the right will be a small opening where Joel can find some supplies. To the left, climb up the ladder. A wooden palette will be leaning against the railing. Walk up to it and press the triangle button to push it into the water. To the right of the ladder is a door that leads to a room with two clickers. Inside are supplies and an artifact.

Jump into the water and press the triangle button to grab onto the wooden palette. Push it back into the main room and have Ellie jump onto the palette. Push the palette to the right side of the room where the generator is. Ellie will jump up and turn on the generator.

Meanwhile, swim back to Henry and Sam and get on the platform with them. In a moment, the platform will begin moving.

Follow everyone down the tunnel. To the left, there will be an open doorway that will lead to a room full of supplies and tools level three.

At the end, there'll be a set of doors against a wall plastered with coloring. Press the triangle button to open the door. A sound trap will trigger, but no enemies are around. Continue forward. On a table on the left will be a new weapon, the "shorty".

Moving forward, the path will split off into two directions. Go immediately forward first. On the shelves to the left will be a training manual that will improve Joel's bombs. There are also other supplies to be found ahead.

When ready, turn around and head down the new path. As players turn the corner and see a metal gate, infected will be heard. Be prepared, since as soon as players head through the gate, four infected will attack – three runners and a clicker. Before continuing forward, head into the room on the right for supplies and an artifact. Return to the main room and walk up the steps. On the left, there will be a door leading to another room with supplies and an artifact.

Return to the hallway and continue forward. Down the stairs, turn right to the gate. Press the triangle button to open the gate door. This will immediately trigger a mechanism that causes a large door to fall into the middle of the room. Joel will be stuck on one side with Sam, while Ellie will be stuck on the other with Henry.

Soon, infected will show up, chasing off Ellie and Henry. Turn around and crouch down, as numerous clickers and stalkers will be camped out in the room ahead. Considering how many stalkers are in the area, it can be difficult to get through this room only with stealth. Sneak for as long as possible. Continue forward into the upper room, then turn right. Next to the chalkboard will be an artifact.

Go to the ledge straight ahead and press the triangle button to boost Sam up. He'll drop the ladder down nearby, allowing Joel to climb up. Go down the steps and drop down the ledge. Here, Joel and Sam will finally reunite with Ellie and Henry. The reunion is cut short by a horde of infected chasing after them, however. Run and follow everyone down the hall.

At the door, press the triangle button to try to push it open. A pipe will be forcing it closed; press the square button repeatedly to try to open the door with Henry. After a moment, Sam will crawl through an opening and take the pipe out, opening the door. Run up the stairs and follow the path to an open room. The door leading outside will be stuck, but Henry can boost Ellie and Sam through a small open window.

It won't be long before infected will show up. Though they won't come after Joel and Henry immediately, giving them some time to prepare. Use this time to craft any necessary items and refill ammo. Place nail bombs at both entrances to the room for an advantage. Hold off the infected long enough for Ellie and Sam to unlock the door. Once the door is unlocked, head towards it to exit the sewers.

Suburbs

Outside the sewers, there will be a brown truck to the right; go to the back for supplies. Otherwise, continue following Henry. As Henry guides Joel through the neighborhood, there are plenty of houses that are optional to search, but players will find valuable supplies, collectibles, and story moments in or near these houses. The first house is a brown house on the right side of the street.

On the second floor in the first bedroom on the left, players will find an artifact on the dresser.

Go back outside through the same entrance and head down the street. On the left side where the street turns, there will be a house with graffiti that reads "No trespassers – will shoot on sight". Go up to it, where Ellie and Henry will comment on it. Wait for Henry to finish to engage in an optional conversation.

Another optional conversation can be had if players turn around; there'll be an opening in one of the houses that leads into a kitchen. Go here to trigger the conversation. Unlike most other optional conversations, there is no button prompt for this conversation; instead, Henry will begin talking automatically.

Continue going down the street. An ice cream truck will be straight ahead, where Joel and Ellie can have an optional conversation.

Go to the first house on the left. In the garage will be a workbench. Afterward, go up the stairs to the right and enter the red house. Go upstairs, where in the hallway players can press the triangle button to open the door to the attic. The door will break off, so press the triangle button to boost Ellie up into the attic. After a moment, she'll hand Joel a training manual to upgrade Joel's melee weapons.

Turn around and head into the room at the end of the hall. On the desk will be another artifact.

Go into the neighboring white house. In the living room, there will be a dart board; in a few moments, Ellie and Sam will play darts. Meanwhile, Joel can explore the house. On the second floor in the first room on the left, there will be an artifact behind the dresser.

There will also be a safe near the entrance of the room. The combination is 8-21-36. In the other room on the second floor, players can find a Savage Starlight comic. On the top level of the house, players can find another artifact. Then, return to the ground floor to watch Ellie and Sam play darts. At the table in between them, players can have Joel take a shot at darts by pressing the triangle button.

Head back out onto the street and turn left. When Joel hits a dead end, wait around a minute; in a moment, Ellie will take out her joke book one more time.

In the small yard to the left, there will be a firefly pendant. It's hanging from a tree branch, so either shoot it or throw a brick or bottle at it to get it down.

When ready, head into either of the houses and walk through to the other side. Then drop down onto the next street, where the radio tower will be straight ahead. As soon as Joel drops down, a sniper from the house at the end of the street will take a shot at Joel. At this point, players have to find a way to get to the house and kill the sniper.

Instead of heading straight down the street, go toward either side where the houses are. The houses can be easily used for cover and may contain supplies, but stay clear of open windows as the sniper can still spot Joel here. When trying to get down the street, several more hunters will attack Joel. The sniper generally won't make an attack against Joel while hunters are attacking. Continue using the houses as cover as you make your way to the end of the street.

Inside the house, climb to the top floor, where the sniper will attempt to attack Joel. Press the square button repeatedly to hold off his attack and kill him. Then, Joel will get a chance to use the sniper rifle to protect Ellie, Henry, and Sam.

Several hunters will attempt to get close to and attack Joel's companions. Keep an eye on them as they hide behind several vehicles. If hunters get too close, be sure to take them out before they can kill Ellie, Henry, or Sam.

The sniper rifle has unlimited ammo, so there's no need to be concerned about conserving resources during the second half of the sniper battle.
