Overview
The Park is the one zone the main story never forces you through — PowerPyx marks it optional on the recommended route. Skipping it means skipping its Resonant, its ability, and its trophy, so completionists should treat "optional" as "do it anyway."
Key places
- FBC Base — the rooftop is where New Growth begins: finish Zoe's Briefing or speak to the female soldier on the roof to start the hunt for Dr. Underhill.
- Underhill's apartment & the sewer lab — stops on the New Growth trail, ending in a three-specimen Mold fight.
- The subway station — enter from the street slightly north at "Nomand Avenue Station" for Freeze Frame camera #9; camera #10 sits on a platform above the sewer entrance.
Resonant
The Collective is The Park's Resonant — the Mold faction's representative among the six zone guardians.
Route advice
The natural slot is after the Underpass, when the kit is built and the remaining story is the Hedron endgame. The zone carries side stories the main line never touches — Zoe's Briefing, New Growth, and the Carbon Copy questline — which together feed the Budding Mycologist trophy.
