Start the two escort sections
Enter the Biohazard Disposal Shuttle after your transport stops. When it stops again, continue into the Central Hub and press its button. Escort both Loyalists along their separate rails through Section A and Section B.
Each section gets one of two gate-opening tasks. Check what your section actually contains; do not search both sides for Scapegoats.
Use the right device at a blocked gate
| Your section contains | What to do |
|---|---|
| Scapegoats | Use the Tracker to find them, then use the Microwave Trigger on their explosive head devices. Escape the Lies requires one bulb per Scapegoat. |
| Yellow Microwave Targets | Find the Unstable Microwave Triggers scattered through the section and use them to destroy the targets linked to the gates. Targets can be completed in any order. |
The Tracker is the locating device: its lights increase as you approach a Scapegoat and its arrows indicate a different floor. The Microwave Trigger is the firing device. Equip it, face the target and hold its use input until the meter reaches the firing area. Follow the on-screen prompt for your bindings.
The general item description mentions a three-use Scapegoat mechanic from other Trials. Use this challenge’s single-bulb requirement instead. For the wall-target side, search the surrounding rooms and upper walls rather than expecting a Scapegoat beside every gate. An Unstable Trigger is a different objective item from your Jammer Rig.
Open the gates and keep escorting until both Loyalists reach their incinerators. Return to the Central Hub and press its button to open the final chamber.
Complete the finale you receive
The final device is randomized:
| Device | Completion action | What can interrupt progress |
|---|---|---|
| Electric Chair | Operate the console levers to raise power to 100%. | Holding a lever too long overloads its console and damages you. |
| Incinerator | Open the two side-room valves to build pressure, then operate the furnace pumps. | Pressure drains when unattended; restore it when the pumps cannot advance. |
| Meat Tank | Take Hearts from the reservoirs and hit the safety signs matching the wound/protective-equipment clues on the TVs. | Missing the sequence timer requires restarting that body’s sequence. |
Jaeger pursuit starts during the finale. Keep a route around the chamber available; teammates can work while the assigned target moves. Harder difficulty or a larger group can add a Prime Asset.
The desert backdrop is not the exit
After the final objective, leave through the opened bunker door and follow the caves. At the apparent desert, press the button to call the Shuttle. Evade the renewed Jaeger pursuit and Prime Asset while the exit gate opens, then enter the Shuttle to leave.
The May 2026 changes removed this challenge from Escalation. This walkthrough covers the Waste Tunnel MK-Challenge; Communal Rebirth adds its own required secondary objectives.
