1515 Use Axiom Force on the pillar to the right of the Abyss Nexus and lift it up. This triggers an aerial camera view showing the full puzzle path ahead.Select the central pillar using the shoulder triggers (L2/R2 or LT/RT), then press the action button. Moving the nearest pillar draws your current platform toward it, allowing you to cross the chasm.Continue selecting and activating the pillars closest to your position, methodically crossing all platforms toward the end goal. Walk along each pillar to locate the Axiom Force conductor slots for subsequent manipulations.Once you reach the final pillar, climb to the top using the climbable walls. At the top, jump to the island and follow the steps up.Approach the pressure platform and use Force Palm on it to trigger a cutscene, completing the puzzle sequence.
