How to Acquire Powers

Powers (Space Magic) are acquired by visiting Temples. There are a total of 26 Powers. Each Temple unlocks 1 Power. Players visit the temples as part of the mission Power from Beyond, which is unlocked after Into the Unknown, the 5th Main Mission.

Locate Powers

You can unlock Powers during the Main Mission Into the Unknown. After Powers are unlocked, players will uncover further Temples and Powers through Missions called Power from Beyond which can be obtained while exploring space.

• Power from Beyond missions can also be provided by Vladimir after completing enough Main Missions.

If you are exploring and your scanners pick up a near anomaly, your quest log will automatically update the Mission Power from Beyond and add the location of the anomaly for you to investigate.

When you land on a planet to investigate a scanner anomaly, you will be informed that an anomaly is nearby and the location needs to be identified via triangulation. To triangulate anomalies and locate temples you must:

1. Land your starship and open your Survey mode by pressing [F] on PC or [LB] on Xbox Controller.

2. When looking into the direction of the anomaly / temple, the scanner circle will start to distort.

• You may need to turn your character slowly for 360° degree until you see the distorted scanner circle.

3. Walk towards the direction in which the scanner shows the distorted scanner circle.

4. Once you get close enough to the anomaly / temple, you will receive a location marker on the map. 5. Get closer to the temple and enter.

• You might have to wait for a moment for the door to be accessible, as the pillars in front, where the stars are on, have to unlock the door first.
