The Echoes of the Eye ending ties together events from the Outer Wilds story in spectacular fashion. But how hard is it to get to the Echoes of the Eye ending? It takes a lot of puzzle solving, and patience and even then, the Echoes of the Eye ending might not make a lot of sense if you haven't analysed all the slide reels and visions aboard The Stranger.

This video breaks down Echoes of the Eye's ending and the Echoes of the Eye story to give a full understanding of Outer Wilds' story - how one of The Stranger's inhabitants made a choice that led to the Nomai's discovery of the Eye of the Universe and, ultimately, how one Hearthian explorer (that's you!) unravelled the secrets of the solar system.

This video is split into an Echoes of the Eye story recap, Echoes of the Eye ending (and story) explained, and some general thoughts on how Echoes of the Eye compares to the main Outer Wilds story. Video chapters can be found below (and in the video) if you want to skip straight to a certain part.

Thanks for watching :)

Hi! Welcome to my channel. I do videos about video games, breaking down stories and analysing their narratives to discuss the ways games can tell stories that other mediums could only dream of. If you like deep dives into videogame narratives, please check out the channel! The videos are at least above average, I can promise you that - somewhere between mukbangs and hot tub streams in terms of quality (no one can compete with a good hot tub stream).
