Journey to the Savage Planet: How to get the Secret Ending

Journey to the Savage Planet’s secret joke ending

The reason you might miss out on seeing Journey to the Savage Planet‘s secret joke ending is that it requires you to complete some Science Experiments to increase your Explorer Rank. We’ve got our Explorer Rank mini-guide to help you out with this part.

After that, you’ll need to obtain at least five of the Javelin Fuel Sources. We’ve got these covered already in our Javelin Fuel Sources mini-guide so check that out if you want to know their locations.

You might be thinking that you should go ahead and defeat the boss now. Well, no, not quite. In fact, the only way to get the secret joke ending is to leave the planet before beating the final boss Teratomo.
