Navigate Part 20 of The Evil Within walkthrough. Learn how to defeat The Keeper, avoid traps, and find collectibles like Green Gel and ammo.
Part 20 begins with a few harmless crawling creatures. A few rounds will defeat them. You can find 500 Green Gel on the right side of the hall. Move to the end and turn the wheel.
Continue through the hall and ascend the long ladder. A Harpoon Bolt can be found in one of the corpses in this room. Proceed to collect the last litho. Place it in the final slot and save your game.
Before continuing, return down the right stairs. The large gate will open as you descend. Upon entering, The Keeper appears. Cut yourself loose and step back. You must quickly run to the other end of the hall without triggering any instant-death traps. A suggested path is: Left, Right, Left, Right, Middle.
THE KEEPER
TIP: Rely on explosive bolts for this fight. Craft more when needed. There is a unique trophy associated with this fight; check the trophy tip below for details on how to obtain it while conserving ammo.
Free Leslie in the next room and collect 6 Handgun Ammo and 1 Shotgun Shell. Use the lever to trigger a scene and initiate the boss fight with The Keeper. The easiest strategy is to maintain distance. Avoid the traps he lays. Circle around the cage and shoot an explosive bolt at the floor twice to temporarily incapacitate him. He drops 1000 Green Gel. Move to the adjacent room (not the one with gas) and collect the Explosive Bolt and Syringe. Note the valve and quickly turn it in the next room.
If you are fast enough, you can do this before The Keeper revives. Enter the door to the next chamber. Here you will find 8 Handgun Ammo, 2 Shotgun Shells, and 3 Parts. Use the valve again to close off the gas. The Keeper will reappear. Use explosive bolts to defeat him. Once you turn the valve, return to the previous chamber (with the first valve) and look left; a new path will have opened.
The Keeper will destroy the valve you needed. However, a spare valve was located on a table in the hall connecting to the first room. Retrieve this valve, defeat The Keeper again, quickly turn the valve, and head downstairs to your left. Follow the path, turn right, and climb the ladder. A scene will play, requiring you to wiggle the left stick.
TROPHY TIP: I DON'T HAVE TIME FOR THIS!
This trophy requires you to defeat The Keeper only twice throughout the entire encounter (excluding the final scene). The first mandatory kill occurs when doors are locked and gas appears. After turning the first valve, enter the nearby door. After turning the second valve, The Keeper reappears; this is the second mandatory kill to open the door. Proceed through the opened door, turn left, and you'll see him destroying the third valve.
Head right to the room with the spare valve. Collect it. Craft/shoot The Keeper with a freeze bolt to gain time. Immediately place the new valve and turn it, then head downstairs to the left. The freeze bolt is key to escaping.
The trophy may not pop until the chapter ends. It popped for some on the
