Learn how to get the Cage Opener Trophy in Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII Reunion by finding all four LOVELESS tablets and defeating the G Lucifero enemies in the Lake of Oblivion.

Alright, so you're trying to snag that 'Cage Opener' Trophy in Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII Reunion? It's tied to opening up a path to a secret area in the final dungeon, the Cage of Binding. Don't worry, it's not too tricky, but you do need to pay attention to a few things before you dive into the Lake of Oblivion.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    First things first, you'll eventually reach a Save Point in an area called the Depths of Judgement. This is your starting point for this whole sequence. You'll notice a few exits from this area, but the one you're interested in for the Cage of Binding is to the south, leading to the Lake of Oblivion.
  2. 2
    Before you head south, though, look to the right of that Save Point. You'll see a tablet with text from LOVELESS - Prologue. Go ahead and examine it. This is the first of four tablets you need to find.
  3. 3
    Now, let's track down the other three. The text from the tablets is from LOVELESS, so keep an eye out for those specific passages.
  4. 4
    LOVELESS - Prologue: You should have already found this one right by the Save Point in the Depths of Judgement.
  5. 5
    LOVELESS - Act I: This tablet is located in the cave that leads to the Lake of Oblivion, to the south. It's a good idea to leave this one for last since it's right where you're headed next.
  6. 6
    LOVELESS - Act II: You'll need to leave the Depths of Judgement by heading east. This will take you to an area called Howling Fang. The tablet for Act II is at the end of the path, right before a locked gate that leads to the Behemoth King.
  7. 7
    LOVELESS - Act III: For the final tablet, leave the Depths of Judgement by heading west. This will lead you to the Portal of Severance area. The tablet for Act III is right in front of you when you enter this area.
  8. 8
    Once you've examined all four tablets, it's time to head to the Lake of Oblivion. You'll find this area to the south of the Depths of Judgement.
  9. 9
    As you explore the Lake of Oblivion, look closely for five spots that have a crystal above them and a slight glow on the water below. These are interactive points.
  10. 10
    When you interact with one of these glowing spots, a powerful enemy called a G Lucifero will appear. You need to defeat it. Once it's defeated, it will disappear from that glowing spot.
  11. 11
    You need to repeat this process for all five glowing spots in the Lake of Oblivion. Defeat the G Lucifero at each one.
  12. 12
    After you've cleared all five glowing spots, a new path will open up, leading you to the Cage of Binding. This is an optional area within the final dungeon that's packed with chests.
  13. 13
    Congratulations! At this point, the 'Cage Opener' Trophy/Achievement will unlock. This is noted as the last missable trophy/achievement in the game, so if you've been following along, you've done great!
Tips
  • Make sure you've examined all four tablets before heading into the Lake of Oblivion. The game won't progress the trophy requirement otherwise.
  • The G Lucifero can be a tough fight, so make sure Zack is well-equipped and has some good Materia equipped before you start tackling the glowing spots.
  • If you miss this trophy, you'll have to replay the chapter or potentially the whole game, so it's best to get it done now!
  • Cage Opener Trophy/Achievement
  • Access to the Cage of Binding area
