How to Escape Limbo and Avoid Getting Trapped

What Sends You to Limbo

Limbo is a dark, foggy dimension that acts as a trap when things go wrong in pocket dimensions. Instead of respawning normally in the Overworld, you will wake up in Limbo if any of the following happen:

  • Dying inside a pocket dimension: Falling to traps or taking fatal damage in any pocket dimension sends you straight to Limbo.
  • Falling into the void: Stepping off an edge into the empty space of a pocket dimension traps you here.
  • Getting caught by a Monolith: Monoliths are single-eyed creatures waiting outside dungeon walls. If you break through the walls of a dungeon pocket and a Monolith spots you, its gaze will teleport you to Limbo.

Finding the Exit

Escaping Limbo does not require crafting a door or fighting mobs. Instead, your goal is to reach the very bottom of the dimension.

1. Look for downward paths, ledges, and drops through the dark terrain.

2. Keep descending as deep down as you can go, watching your footing so you take minimal fall damage along the way.

3. At the bottom of Limbo, look for pools of a special liquid called Eternal Fluid.

4. Step directly into the Eternal Fluid. Touching this liquid immediately teleports you out of Limbo and back home to the Overworld.
