Navigating the sci-fi horrors of The Beast From Beyond requires a solid understanding of map layout and objective steps. Players entering this final Infinite Warfare Zombies chapter must quickly restore power and locate key items to survive. Finding every floppy disk is a critical milestone for repairing N31L and advancing toward the main Easter egg battle.
Initial Steps for Map Power and Setup
Your journey begins by dropping down the central pit to retrieve N31L's missing head. Returning the head to the main console restores basic power across key facility doors. Once power is online, players should focus on unlocking the Pack-a-Punch area by assembling the bridge pieces scattered around the station.
Acquiring the Entangler tactical weapon is another necessary step for map interaction. This special tool allows players to manipulate hidden objects and pull required quest items out of unreachable zones. Having the Entangler ready ensures you can easily handle subsequent floppy disk puzzle triggers.
Locating the Four Floppy Disks
To fully restore N31L, players must track down four distinct floppy disks hidden throughout the environment. The first disk drops from a Phantom Cryptid inside the Pack-a-Punch projection room after waiting out the initial timer. A second disk rests directly on the ground near the large power pole outside the main portal.
Finding the third disk involves using the Entangler in the red hallway near Bang Bangs to launch it through a metal floor vent. The disk will then randomly spawn in one of several vent locations, such as near the Proteus wallbuy or inside the break room. The final disk becomes available inside the Med Bay forcefield room after launching a white space helmet at the green monitor.
Inputting Symbols and Programming N31L
Each floppy disk features a unique symbol that dictates the exact order required for insertion into N31L. Players must match their four gathered symbols against the computer printout sheet found within the map layout. Placing the disks into N31L in the top-to-bottom sequence displayed on the matching paper successfully completes the programming phase.
Failing to insert the disks in the correct order resets the symbol values and forces players to repeat the identification process. Once properly programmed, N31L becomes temporarily hacked, triggering a countdown timer. Players must swiftly entangle N31L's head and escort it to the projector desk inside the Pack-a-Punch room.
Preparing for the Boss Fight Encounter
With N31L's head placed in the terminal, all players can interact with the computer screen to initiate the arena encounter. Preparing powerful weapons like double Pack-a-Punched shotguns or high-damage light machine guns is essential before entering. Stocking up on core perks ensures your squad maintains mobility and health during chaotic waves.
The encounter tests player coordination through multiple phases of Cryptid spawns, laser hazards, and tanky boss creatures. Defeating the final Slasher and Mammoth threats completes the main storyline quest for the facility. Mastering these key map progression steps guarantees a smoother run for solo survivalists and co-op teams alike.
