Valkyrie Elysium Endings: How to Get All Four (October 2022)

Valkyrie Elysium is the latest entry in the cult classic JRPG series. Coming a long time after the last, not very popular entry, the game introduces Valkyrie Nora, a new heroine on a quest to prevent Ragnarok. Also new in this game is a focus on a more action-oriented RPG experience, which makes it more appealing to a wider audience. That said, it still stays true to its roots by offering multiple endings depending on how you play. Valkyrie Elysium has four different endings: normal, good, bad and true. Each has different requirements you need to fulfill, and the true ending has the strictest ones. Depending on the ending you want, you may need to plan for it from the very start of the game. What are the four endings in Valkyrie Elysium, and what do you need to do to get all of them?

How Do You Get the Normal Ending in Valkyrie Elysium?

The normal ending is the easiest one to get. Most likely, it is the ending you will get if you play the game naturally without going out of your way, but there is an easy way to miss it.

• Do not collect all nine Verdant Blossoms in the game.
• In Chapter 9, do not approach or talk to Armand.
• Continue with the boss fight.
• Defeat Fenrir.
• Watch the final cutscene and get the Twilight of the Great Wolf achievement/trophy.

How Do You Get the Good Ending in Valkyrie Elysium?

The good ending is the other possible ending you may get without realizing it, depending on what kind of player you are. Here is how to get it.

• Do not collect all nine Verdant Blossoms.
• In Chapter 9, look for Armand and talk to him.
• Accept that you are a Valkyrie and do what needs to be done.
• Defeat Fenrir and Hilde.
• Defeat Odin.
• Watch the final cutscene and get the Twilight of the All-Father achievement/trophy.

How Do You Get the Bad Ending in Valkyrie Elysium?

Although no ending really feels that good, there is a bad one that is quite unsatisfying even in gameplay terms. If you are curious, here is how to get it.

• Do not collect all nine Verdant Blossoms.
• In Chapter 9, meet Armond.
• Select Choose to Be Human and continue with Armand.
• You have no final boss in this ending, but you get the A Momentary Escape achievement/trophy.

How Do You Get the True Ending in Valkyrie Elysium?

This is the true ending that most people will want to get, and it has the strictest requirements. By now, you probably have a guess about the most important thing you need to do, but here is the full list of requirements.
