What are Emergency Exits and How Do They Work?
Emergency Exits are quick travel points scattered throughout each sector. When interacting with an exit, Hugh instantly returns to the Shelter – without loading screens or menu switching. There, you can upgrade equipment, replenish repair cartridge supplies, change equipment, and return to the same exit via the Tram Terminal.
The downside: enemies respawn, and some puzzles reset. However, collected resources are not lost. If you die before reaching an exit, you’ll simply respawn in the Shelter and return to the tram.
After unlocking Diana’s “Scanning” ability, the nearest emergency exit will be displayed on your HUD along with the current objective. This is especially useful in new locations with unknown layouts.
Important: Emergency Exits are not included in the sector completion percentage (100%). They are tracked separately for the following trophy/achievement:
Escape Master
- Unlock all emergency exits. Emergency exits are a way to return to the Shelter between encounters. Find and activate each exit in the Cradle.
