Coccyx Phase

Coccyx Phase is the first stage in Octo Expansion's finale.

Gameplay
The player must guide Agent 8 past a series of Sanitized Octarians without being seen, as the player has no weapon. If seen by a Sanitized Octarian, the player will be quickly surrounded by additional enemies and must escape immediately to avoid being splatted.

If the player gets repeatedly splatted they have the option to skip this phase, with each splat contributing to 20% Skip Charge, where the following dialogue will be displayed:

"Agent 8 was able to keep out of sight and sneak past the enemies..."

Trivia

 * This phase shares many similarities with the Metal Gear Solid series, such as similar stealth mechanics and the dialogue presented if Agent 8 is splatted, though these similarities may be coincidental. However, it is worth noting that Jordan Amaro, one of the designers for Octo Expansion, has previously worked on Metal Gear Solid V and stated he placed an homage to the series on his Twitter account, as well as his name in the credits bearing strong resemblance to the font used for the original Metal Gear Solid logo.
