Get Briefed is the sixth main mission in High on Life 2 that appears multiple times throughout the story. This one typically functions as an intermission between missions to prepare for the next one. The first time Get Briefed appears is just after visiting Circuit Arcadia and learning that Jorb has set up shop at Quarters. Use our walkthrough to unlock double jumping, to pick your first bounty, and plenty more as this mission later reappears.
Check Out Jorb’s New Shop
After completing the mission Explore Circuit Arcadia, you’ll return to Quarters where you can find Jorb’s shop. Exit the RV hallway and head down one floor to find Jorb’s shop. This is the same area where you can find all the arcade machines and Knifey.
While there are many upgrades available here and even a couple of collectibles, we’re here for one specific upgrade. For Get Briefed, we’ll need to buy the Double Jump upgrade to the left of Jorb. Fortunately, it only costs 100 pesos, so you should theoretically have enough to buy it.
If you’re looking to buy more upgrades, you can advance the story to earn money and hunt down Lugloxes. These are the cube and chest-like creatures all over High on Life 2 that will reward you for opening them. As our tips and tricks guide mentions, you can use your radar for help spotting them. When near a Luglox, a green indicator will appear on your radar.
Talk to Lizzie Before Heading Back Out
Once you’re finished shopping at Jorb’s, make your way up to the top of Quarters. Speak with Lizzie near Gene back at the couch. She explains that our goal is to take down Rhea Pharmaceuticals. In order to do that, we’ll need to hunt any major players working with the corporation. Which means while we may be an outlaw, we’re back to hunting targets!
The first two targets we can chase are Larry Pinkstock and Senator Muppy Doo. As Gatlian Harper mentions, we can go after them in any order. For this walkthrough, we started with the billionaire Larry Pinkstock. Once you’ve finished speaking with Lizzie, you can wander the base to speak with other characters for optional dialogue.
The Latest Real Movie is Live
If you’re keeping track of what real movies are in High on Life 2, the latest one will appear. This is the 1986 horror movie, Spookies. The previous movie on Gene’s TV was Manborg.
Check in With Everyone or Go to the RV
Aside from checking in with all the characters and Gatlians around Quarters, you can also check the TV to see what’s on. As mentioned above, you’ll catch real movies and short, silly shows made for High on Life 2. When you’re ready to leave and continue the main story, make your way to the RV. You’ll be able to interact with the dashboard terminal named YomYom this time.
Before you can pick a bounty, you’ll need to accept the Terms of Service on the device. If you decline, you won’t be able to continue. Upon accepting, you’ll see both Larry Pinkstock and Muppy Doo as choices. Clicking on either will give you more information about them. After clicking to track one of them, you’ll unlock the other two YomYom tabs.
The NAV area is for fast traveling to call stations you’ve unlocked. But the Horn tab is for changing the RV’s horn sound. As Gene explains, he’ll use whatever horn you pick when arriving to pick you up. When ready, return to the NAV and tap on the City Plaza, downtown. This will lead into either of the two missions below:
Cross Larry Pinkstock Off the Board
Upon completing your Larry Pinkstock bounty, you’ll wake up back at Quarters. Travis is now a permanent part of the crew. For this brief intermission, go cross out Pinkstock’s photo or draw whatever you want on it. After doing so, be sure to check Jorb’s shop just in case there are any upgrades you want or new ones that weren’t there before.
When you’re ready, head over to the RV and start your next bounty. If you took out Pinkstock first, you’ll now have Senator Muppy Doo as a target. If this was your second bounty, the next mission is Explore And Rest Up.
Cross Senator Muppy Doo Off the Board
Once you’ve finished hunting down Senator Muppy Doo, you’ll end up back at Quarters after fainting. You’ll also now have Sheath going forward for any other missions. He’s learned that he no longer has to work alone. After a short conversation, make your way to the board and cross out Muppy Doo’s photo.
As goes with any other time you complete a bounty, we recommend checking Jorb’s shop in case there are any upgrades you want. If this was your first bounty, you’ll now need to take on Larry Pinkstock. But if it was your second, the next mission is Explore And Rest Up.
This walkthrough is currently a work-in-progress while we work through the other guides that lead back to Get Briefed. We’ll update this page once they’re available!
