Select Knifey's Package in Bounty 5000

High on Knife - Knifey
While at your house, after checking the fridge, interact with the Bounty 5000. From the available list, select “Knifey's Package” to begin the mission and see what kind of chaos your favorite stab-happy companion has gotten himself into.

Make Sure to Equip Weapon Mods

High on Knife - Harper
You now have access to all the weapon mods in the base game - but you need to equip them manually. Open the pause menu, go to the Inventory, and select your Gatlian. From there, you can equip or swap mods directly.

With Kenny out of the picture (for reasons we're definitely not going to question), you'll be joined by Harper as your fresh-faced Gatliian companion. She fills Kenny's role in combat and traversal.

List of All Weapon Mods and How to Get

Speak with the Greeter

High on Knife - Greeter
Welcome to Peroxis! You'll run into a sickly greeter early on. As gross as he is, he'll tell you where to go. If you're ever unsure where to go next, make sure to use your Scanner - it highlights where to go and helps you stay on track.

Go to Salt Lick City

High on Knife - Salt Lick City
Follow the path toward Salt Lick City, your next major destination. Along the way, you might run into a few former G3 goons who haven't quite gotten the memo that the cartel's over.

Talk to the Instructor to Get B.A.L.L

In Salt Lick City, talk to the Instructor to kick off a little minigame called Peroxosquash. You don't need to be good at it - just get through it, but beating the high score nets you a little something extra.

Once it's over, you'll be rewarded with B.A.L.L. It's not quite a Gatlian, but it's just as powerful - and just as ridiculous, operated by three little aliens.

Use B.A.L.L. to Seal Geyser Holes

Now that you've got B.A.L.L., it's time to head out of Salt Lick City and put it to work. You'll find geyser holes scattered around the area - just fire B.A.L.L. into each one to seal them up and build pressure.

Once all geyser vents are sealed, the built-up pressure will launch you to higher platforms, unlocking new paths.

Bathe with Toxxo

Bathing with Toxxo


High on Knife - Toxxo
On your way to Muxxalon HQ, you'll encounter Toxxo - a massive, laid-back alien lounging in a pool of highly questionable green goo. He's more than happy to help you reach your destination... but there's a catch.

Toxxo wants you to hop in and marinate with him in his suspiciously toxic bathwater. The problem is the longer you stay in, the more damage you take.

Shoot the Parasites

To get Toxxo to help you, you'll need to fill up the Relaxometer - which means clearing off the parasites clinging to his giant body while soaking in the toxic goo with him.

The more you shoot, the longer you can stay in the toxic pool without getting melted, so keep those pests off him and try not to boil yourself in the process. Thankfully, you can hop out of the pool before you die, and the Relaxometer will keep your progress if it's at least half-filled.

Clean Off His Back

High on Knife - Clean Toxxo
Toxxo's not quite done pampering: now he wants his back cleaned. Head around behind him and pop the remaining parasites clinging to his back. The good news? You won't need to soak in the toxic sludge this time.

Wipe His Ass Clean

High on Knife - Clean Toxxo
You heard that right. Toxxo now wants you to clean his butt. To do that, head to the cave entrance to the right of him, then make your way down to, uh... meet Cheeks to shoot off the remaining parasites.

There's a short (and ridiculous) cutscene waiting for you - just embrace the absurdity. You've come this far.

Speak with Sam Shnot at the Duffalo Ranch

High on Knife - Sam Shnot
After Toxxo hauls you off to another island, head to the Duffalo Ranch and speak with the local Rancher, Sam Shnot.

He's not exactly eager to help, though. He'll only agree to smuggle you into Muxxalon HQ if you take care of a poacher problem first.

Clear Out the Poacher Outpost

Clear Out the Poacher Outpost





High on Knife - Poacher Outpost
The Poacher Outpost is just outside the Duffalo Ranch, so you won’t have to travel far. Use your Scanner to pinpoint its location, then get to work taking out every poacher in sight.

Expect reinforcements to warp in, so stay sharp and keep your Gatlians locked and loaded.

Use Gus to Create Platforms on Hotwalls

High on Knife - Gus Hotwalls Disc
When you see glowing orange Hotwalls, that’s your cue to switch to Gus. Use his alt-fire to shoot a disc into the wall, which creates a temporary platform you can tether to or stand on.

Use B.A.L.L. Again to Plug the Geysers

High on Knife - Use B.A.L.L.
You’ll need to fire B.A.L.L. into each geyser vent to plug them up and build pressure. Once they’re sealed, the pressure will launch you across the gap - turning the steam blasts into your personal trampoline network.

Launch Creature's Kids at the Tether Nest

High on Knife - Launch Creature
When you spot a Tether Nest, use Creature to fire one of his kids into it. This will summon a Hookbug you can latch onto and swing across with Knifey.

Use Harper’s Glob Shot on Splatforms

High on Knife - Harper
When you see this Splatform, aim Harper's Glob Shot at it and fire to launch yourself across the gap.

Use B.A.L.L. to Plug the Three Pipes

Fire B.A.L.L. into these three connected pipes to build up pressure. Once all three are plugged, a massive fan will activate, blasting you across to the final area of the Poacher’s Outpost. Time for the last cleanup!

Find the Poacher King

High on Life - Poacher King
Prepare for a series of enemy waves as you make your way through the final stretch of the outpost. Use B.A.L.L.'s ability to clear out groups of poachers quickly. Eventually, you’ll come face-to-face with the Poacher King, and surprise! He's human. At least there won't be any boss fights.

Collect the Poppers. With those in hand, it’s time to head back to the Rancher and move on to the next bizarre chapter of your journey.

Return to the Ranch

High on Knife - Elizabeth the Duffalo
With the Poachers defeated and the Poppers in hand, make your way back to Sam Shnot at the Ranch.

Now that the poacher problem is handled, he'll finally agree to help smuggle you into Muxxalon HQ. Hand the Poppers over to Elizabeth the Duffalo and climb inside her to get smuggled into Muxxalon HQ.

Talk to the Parasite

High on Knife - Parasite
Once you’re inside Elizabeth the Duffalo, you’ll meet a talkative parasite living in there. You can have a conversation with it - and if you’re hunting for achievements, here’s the strange part:

You’ll be given the option to flirt and have sex with the parasite using either Creature or Sweezy. It’s completely optional, but saying yes will unlock a missable achievement.

Find Knifey's Package

High on Knife - Stelson
Inside Muxxalon HQ, things get real dark. The lights are out, the atmosphere is tense, and you'll feel like you’ve walked into a full-blown horror game.

Make your way through the shadows until you run into Stelson, one of the only uninfected Muxxalon employees still standing.

Search the Boxes and Prepare for a Surprise

High on Knife - Mux
Start cutting open every box you can find - Knifey’s package is stashed somewhere in the cluttered mess of Muxxalon HQ.

Before long, you’ll be attacked by a horrifying creature, turning this search into a nightmare. And just when things couldn't get worse, the CEO of Muxxalon herself shows up to make it even scarier.

Get Knifey's Package at Last

High on Knife - Knifey Upgrade
Mux infects you with a Manager Parasite - one whose actual job is to manage you. After surviving a bizarre infected employee simulator, you’ll finally break free and find Knifey’s package is just ahead in the area.

Knifey gets a major upgrade, transforming into a chainsaw, more brutal, more unhinged, and somehow even more excited to stab everything in sight.

Use your new Chainsaw Knifey to carve through the membrane and get out.

Destroy Mux's Organs

Muxxalon HQ Walkthrough


Time to put Chainsaw Knifey to work. Ride along the fleshy cords, popping every pustule you see to rip through Mux’s vital organs one by one. There are three organs in total that you need to destroy.

The layout gets a little maze-like, so don’t forget to use your scanner to track the next objective and carve a path through this body-horror labyrinth.

Use B.A.L.L. to Sort the Boxes Correctly

High on Knife - Sorting Facility
In the Sorting Facility, boxes ride along a conveyor above the doorway. When a correctly colored box approaches the drop-off point, fire B.A.L.L. into the vent above the conveyor to plug it and drop the box into place.

Repeat this process for each color to complete the puzzle and move on.

Navigate the Turbine Room with Dash and Grapple

High on Knife - Turbine Room
Inside the Turbine Room, powerful fans blast wind in all directions. Start on the left side of the room, where you’ll spot a Magwall that helps you get closer to a grapple point. From there, use your dash ability to cut through the heavy wind gusts.

You'll need to chain together dashes and grapples to make your way up to the next level.

Return to the Core After Destroying Her Organs

High on Knife - Mux
With all three organs destroyed, it’s time to head back to Mux's Core for your final showdown with Mux. Bring your best weapons, your worst intentions, and get ready to finish this twisted nightmare once and for all.

Defeat Mux

High on Knife - Mux Boss
This is it: the final showdown with Muxxalon’s CEO, Mux. Throw everything you’ve got at her: Chainsaw Knifey, your full lineup of Gatlians, B.A.L.L., and every mobility trick you've picked up along the way.

She won’t hold back after you dismantled her internal departments, and neither should you.

DLC Post-Game Unlocks After the Credits

High on Knife - Post-Game
Once you chainsaw your way through Mux and the final cutscene wraps, the credits will roll: but it’s not completely over.

You’ll be free to explore Peroxis, track down missed Muxxalon boxes, and finish any side content you might've skipped during the chaos of the DLC.

How to Beat Mux

Mux Boss Fight Tips



Stay Mobile During the Mux Fight

Mux throws everything at you - lasers, energy blasts, and even her own employees. Use your jetpack to stay airborne and dash often to avoid getting overwhelmed. Keep moving, keep shooting, and don’t let her lock you down.

Blast Her Until Her Organs Appear

After dealing enough damage, Mux will spew out a mess of bile and reveal a pulsing organ.

You know the drill: chainsaw your way along the cord with Knifey, and make sure to hit all the pustules first to bring down the shield around the organ. Then carve it up!

Shoot the Parasites for DuraShield Pickups

During the second phase of the boss battle, she’ll start releasing parasites mid-fight. Don't ignore them! Shooting these parasites drops DuraShield pickups, giving you a much-needed layer of protection.

Destroy Her Brain Once and For All

At the final stage of the fight, Mux’s brain is exposed - and it's your cue to end this. Use Chainsaw Knifey to tear through it.
