How to unlock the secret ending in Pragmata
To unlock the secret ending in Pragmata, you need to complete the game on any difficulty first. This initial completion allows you to unlock the Unknown Signal, which is essential for the next steps. Importantly, continue your playthrough rather than starting a New Game Plus file.
After completing the game, you must finish the following tasks: 100% the Solar Power Plant, Mass Production Array, Terra Dome, Lunum Mines, and Central Port sectors. Each sector must be fully explored and completed to qualify for the secret ending.
Additionally, you need to complete all Hidden Chamber challenges. This includes defeating the MK-II versions of each sector boss, which become available after finishing four Hidden Chamber challenges. Equip the Black Box mod, a reward from the Hidden Chamber, and then defeat the upgraded version of Eight.
Once you've beaten Eight, progress through the game until you confront the dead filament boss on the Moon. After defeating this boss, make sure to watch the cutscene that plays after the credits for the secret ending to complete.
