Zegnautus Keep

FINAL FANTASY XV WINDOWS EDITION guide · Chapter 13
← All areas in this guide

Zegnautus Keep is the massive imperial stronghold of Niflheim where Noctis infiltrates alone to rescue his friends and reclaim the Crystal. Stripped of his standard weapons and abilities for much of the run, Noctis must rely on the Ring of the Lucii and stealth mechanics to navigate elevator shafts and research sectors. After reuniting with Gladiolus and Ignis, the party regains their standard arsenal and battles through high-level daemons to reach the central elevator.

Tips

  • Use Death via the Ring of the Lucii to quickly eliminate standard Magitek troopers and recover health while Noctis is separated from the party.
  • Watch for unpowered Magitek troopers slumped along walls or inside lockers, as many will animate and grab Noctis as a jump scare when approached.
  • Use rest rooms frequently to establish checkpoints, as dying without saving can set you back through lengthy stealth and keycard-hunting sections.
  • If playing the updated Windows Edition route, you can choose Chapter 13 Verse 2 from the title menu or at the branch to experience an alternate, combat-heavy perspective playing as Gladiolus and Ignis.
