How to Save Violet in Oxenfree 2, Explained

Following the Charity Point Time Loop section in Oxenfree 2, Violet can be found on the bridge leading to the left half of the area. As soon as you bring Riley and Jacob to her though, she’ll start to ask how she can believe if you’re real or not. Jacob will also comment on how she isn’t well and you need to be careful.

You’ll then have the option to tell Violet how to get to safety. In order to keep her from harming herself, you need to choose the left dialogue option that tells her to cross the bridge by going left and away from you.

This sees her successfully move off the bridge, after which she realizes you’re real and tells you not to let “them” beat you. She’ll then be safe from any permanent danger for the rest of the game.

What Does Saving Violet Do? Explained

After you successfully help Violet in Oxenfree 2, it’ll have a fairly massive impact on the story and outcomes for several characters.

Because she’s alive, she’ll be able to help you stop Olivia from opening tears at the North Camena Community Center. She can also help convince Charlie to step away from Olivia’s plan to open the portals, and can act as a friend who is there for Olivia should she still be around during the epilogue of the game.

Making Friends with Olivia

It’s also worth noting that she needs to be saved in order to earn the “A Brighter Shade of Violet” Trophy. This is earned at the end of the game during the epilogue, but only if you also managed to help Charlie and didn’t make Olivia out as a villain to her.
