Before you start
- Chapter 8 complete
- A retained pre-final-approach save
- Current release build and party menus checked

Sources for this section
Before entering the final sequence
[Confirmed preparation] Review recovery, EP, Quartz/Arts, Crafts, S-Crafts and Brave Gauge. If the full edition exposes new menus or rewards, record them before assuming they match the demo or older SC.
Finish the collection work you want from the current save, then stop changing the pre-final file. A clean return point is more valuable than one extra unverified item.
- Create and label a pre-finale manual save.
- Restock recovery and inspect the active party.
- Check the current objective and any explicit point-of-no-return warning.
- Record notebooks, achievements and DLC/costume state if they matter to your run.
Classic finale context Reveal solution / story details
Classic SC’s finale explores Liber Ark. The official remake story overview is not a source for its room order, bosses or rewards; those details still require remake-specific evidence.
Save at every safe point, read the map and journal, and keep a note of each one-way transition. Do not use a classic treasure route as a substitute for current evidence.
After the ending
[Release checklist] Keep the pre-finale and completed files separate. Check the current achievement/trophy state, clear-data rewards and any postgame or Viewer Mode unlocks from the menus and official platform notices.
If you imported a demo save on PS5, retain the transfer warning in your notes: the official trial page says trophies cannot be earned upon transferring save data. Do not generalise that wording beyond what the platform notice says.
- Save after the ending without overwriting the pre-finale file.
- Review achievements or trophies from the platform UI.
- Check the notebooks and optional systems that were unavailable in the demo.
- Report any postgame behavior with platform and version.
