We have a while until Doors Floor 3 comes out, but that doesn’t stop us from theorising! The final cutscene on Floor 2 gives us a few clues.
It’s time to wait for Doors Floor 3! As I discuss a lot of the ending in Floor 2, why not have a read of our Doors Floor 2 Ending Explained guide?
Doors Floor 3 Theories
Don’t read ahead if you want to avoid spoilers! There are discussions of the Floor 1 and Floor 2 ending scenes.
Like with the ending of Floor 1 (before the release of Floor 2), the player is sent crashing down in the elevator. We know now that this is The Mines, so it was teased from the beginning! With this knowledge, I suspect that the ending of Floor 2 also points to a clue as to where Floor 3 will take place. I could be wrong, of course, but this is purely speculation for now until we have more information.
What We Can Gather From the Floor 2 Ending
Upon completion, the end of Floor 2 takes you to a castle with large double doors. It’s a grand building, lit up with fire torches and lanterns, sitting at the top of a small set of stairs. You walk down the pathway to the building and approach the doors, before pushing them open.
As you begin to walk into the castle, Grumble emerges from the ground to attack. For some reason though, Seek drags Grumble back down while in its giant goo form before its usual humanoid figure steps out. It looks up at you as the doors close and then you’re hit with a ‘To Be Continued’ screen!
Is Seek saving you? Is it a redemption arc? I doubt it, it probably wants you all for itself. But, with the doors closing, and Seek watching you enter the building, I imagine that won’t be the last time we see the entity.
It looks as if Floor 3 is going to take place inside the castle, which is a pretty cool concept. We’re not in The Hotel anymore, and we’re above ground so we’re nowhere near The Mines. With Seek being able to change form, it’s not difficult for it to make its way into the castle at any given time. It’s not clear as to whether Grumble was killed by Seek either. We may see a reappearance of that entity too!
