Outlast Part 12 walkthrough: Find fuses, batteries, and the 3rd Floor Key. Learn how to navigate the laundry room and fuse box puzzle.
Walkthrough
- 1In the laundry room, film the machine making noise for the [_THE SOUND IN THE MACHINE_] note.
- 2Head through the nearby door. Go right into the next hallway, then right again to the burned stairs to find the [_WALRIDER AND NIGHTMARES_] document.
- 3Return to the laundry room, head left, and go straight to find a foyer with an elevator. Film inside the elevator for the [_NO SAFE PLACE_] note.
- 4Head downstairs into a dark room. Use night-vision to find the [_PROJECT PAPERCLIP EXCEPT_] document on a desk in the far right corner.
- 5Head back up to the elevator, go up the left stairs, and jump.
- 6Enter the door on the left. Follow the path and crawl through an opening to find a fuse box with the message "The laundry chute needs three fuses."
- 7To the right of the fuse box, find [_BATTERY x2_] (you may only get one).
- 8Exit through the left window (facing away from the fuse box). Close the door to the room with the "Drive in the Nails" message and push a crate over it. Pick up [_FUSE 1/3_] to the left of the central display. Wait for the banging to stop, then return to the central fuse room.
- 9Head out the front door. Keep the dead end with lockers to the right in mind as an escape option. Head down the left hallway. At a split, find a [_BATTERY_] on the floor near a corpse.
- 10Head left to find a single door. Inside is a psychopath. Go in, grab [_FUSE 2/3_] to the right of the center spectacle, and quickly exit, shutting the door.
- 11If you encounter the patrolling psycho, take the right path. Hide in a cubby by a bed if not being chased. Find [_BATTERY x2_] here.
- 12The right path leads to a room similar to the first fuse room. Block the door with a crate before grabbing [_FUSE 3/3_] from a box near a stretcher. Find a [_BATTERY_] in the fireplace.
- 13Wait for the banging to stop, then exit and return to the central fuse room.
- 14Insert the fuses into the fuse box. The key will fall down to the laundry room.
- 15Head back to the gap in the stairs, jump over it, and return to the laundry room. Avoid the patrolling psycho.
- 16Interact with the lit panel by the chute to claim the [_3RD FLOOR KEY_].
- 17Head back up the stairs, past the gap, and open the door to the left of the elevator.
- 18Jump another gap. After seeing writing on the wall, you'll get a new objective: Follow the Blood.
- 19Grab a [_BATTERY_] from a table in the light and head right.
- 20Follow the blood around the corner and shimmy out onto a ledge. Jump the gap to a new room.
- 21Past the first barrier of beds, the floor will collapse. You can avoid this by shimmying left, but it's recommended to fall.
- 22In the room below, find a stack of beds in the back-right corner to climb back up. Find a [_BATTERY_] in the opposite corner by a radio.
- 23Use the beds to climb back up.
Tips

- Be aware of violent patients patrolling hallways.
- Use doors and crates to block pursuing enemies.
- Collect all batteries to ensure your night-vision (HUD) lasts longer.
