Future Fragments: The End/Catacombs Guide?
Short answer
Suggested fix (unconfirmed): Toggle the switch located at the bottom-left of the map once you have all the Fragments and Gold Databanks. Use your charge shots matching the color element of the final boss's current shield outline to defeat him.
What you need to know
To finish The End/Catacombs you must first gather every Fragment and Gold Databank in the level. Once you have them, a switch appears in the bottom‑left corner of the map that you need to activate. The final boss can only be beaten by charging shots that match the color of his shield outline at the moment you fire.
Step by step
- Explore every area – Move through each room and use the alternate brane ability whenever a wall blocks your path. The minimap shows the name of the room you’re in, so you can verify you’ve visited it.
- Collect all Fragments – Pick up every fragment you encounter. Some are hidden behind walls that require the alternate brane to pass.
- Collect all Gold Databanks – These are scattered throughout the same rooms as the fragments; make sure none are missed.
- Locate the bottom‑left switch – After the last fragment and gold databank are collected, a switch becomes active in the bottom‑left corner of the map screen. Toggle it.
- Face the final boss – The boss will appear with a colored shield outline that changes over time.
- Charge the correct shot – Hold the shoot button to charge a shot. While the shield outline is a specific color, fire a charged shot of the same element/color. The boss’s shield will break, allowing damage.
- Repeat as needed – The shield will cycle through colors; keep charging and firing matching shots until the boss is defeated.
Tips
- Use the minimap to confirm you’ve entered every room; each room’s name appears on the map, helping you spot any you may have missed.
- Alternate brane is essential for bypassing walls that seem impassable; don’t ignore it when a corridor ends abruptly.
- Auto‑charge option can be enabled in the options menu if holding the shoot button feels cumbersome.
- Watch the shield outline closely; the boss changes colors, so timing your charged shots to the current color is crucial.
- Don’t rush the switch – make sure every fragment and gold databank is collected first; otherwise the switch will remain inactive.
What players reported
So far the only level that's genuinely annoying, just feels like dead end after dead end, I've collected a couple of fragments, the rest are all either on the other side of a wall I can't seem to find a way around even with the alternate brane, or in rooms i can't even get to in similar ways, just feels like dead end after dead end. I can't be the only one?
What players suggest
There shouldn't be any dead ends; almost all the rooms have multiple entrances in/out of them. Can you check what rooms you're in where you seem stuck (it should be listed on the minimap) and then write them down here, so I can try to help?
Glad to hear you're enjoying it :) for that boss, you need to use your charge shots (hold the shoot button down) that are the same color element as his current shield outline color. You can enable auto-charge shots in the options menu if you're having trouble using them.
