AllReady or Notmissionswill be immediately available to players in multiplayer and singleplayer Quickplay, and they’ll be able tochoose whatever mission they wantright off the bat. However, for those who want to experience the game’s lore and story as naturally as possible, here’s what missions they should play first.
Updated Jun 21, 2025 by Marc Santos:Ready or Not’s console release also came with Los SueñosStories, a free update for everyone that introduced a boatload of adjustments and fixes to the game. This update also added two standalone maps for players to clear. We’ve updated this guide to include these new missions as well as the other major additions from theLos SueñosStories patch).
All Ready or Not Maps in Order (Unlock Progression)
Take note that the in-game mission list in the briefing room alreadyshows all levels in the order they are unlocked in Commander Mode. Players who arestrictly doing a co-op playthroughdon’t have to guess much if they want to do everything in the original unlock order. Here’s the complete list for those who want a point of reference:
Ends of the Earth
Valley of the Dolls
Sins of the Father
Carriers of the Vine
Hide and Seek
Port Hokan
Lore-Connected Maps (Potential Spoilers)
Some maps are related to others, and together, they form the bigger picture regarding the cases going on around the city. These connections aren’t made immediately noticeable to players, though, and they’ll have toconnect the dotsthemselves if they want to experience the full story of each connected crime scene. Here’s what we’ve been able to piece together so far based onthe crimes committed on each map:
Murder and Assault
These associations are based on information available in each of the missions, including mission briefs and evidence found from secondary objectives and the personal logs of suspects. This isn’t a strict list of interconnected maps, and some (particularly Port Hokan) are connected toa much wider web of conspiracies.
Players don’t have to play the game in this particular order, but if they want to connect the stories of each map by themselves, then this list should prove to be a good starting point.
