FEZ Cutscenes

"Some things are there, but you can't always see them" This article is a stub. You can help the wikia by expanding it.

"Reality is perception. Perception is subjective." This section contains MAJOR puzzle and/or story spoilers below.

FEZ's Cutscenes are the introduction and closing sequences that differ based on how the player starts the game and their progress through it. There are 2 game mode and 2 ending cutscenes the player can experience:

New Game

The New Game mode is the first mode the player will start off with. The player starts off in Gomez's House and then exits the house to get to the village. Gomez has received a letter telling him to go to the top of the village. Once the player has done that, Gomez will have a conversation with Geezer, the person who sent them the letter, and will then be introduced to the Hexahedron that will show him the 3rd dimension. After speaking to him in the Zuish Language, he will recieve the titular Fez that will allow him to switch between 4 perspectives in the 3rd dimension. However, upon switching perspectives, the Hexahedron breaks into cubes and Bits, crashing and rebooting the game.

Gomez will then return to his house, and as he leaves, gets introduced to the hypercube, Dot. It explains the collapse of the Hexahedron and that it's the player's mission to collect all 32 cubes to reassemble the Hexahedron and restore order to the universe. After the explanation, the player's playthrough officially begins.

32-Cube Ending

The 32-Cube Ending is first ending in the game, and can be viewed if the player has 32-63 cubes.

After partially assembling the Hexahedron, the game crashes, reboots, and the player starts back at Gomez's House. However, after exiting through the door, the game slowly zooms in, becoming increasingly pixelated, until a quantumized cutscene is played. After that, Gomez is seen at the top of the village playing his drum set and the game reaches its conclusion.

New Game Plus

New Game Plus (New Game+, or NG+) is a game mode attainable after reaching the 32-Cube Ending. It is nearly identical to starting in a New Game mode, however the players inventory is kept, and Dot does not explain the situation to the player, as was done in New Game mode. Since Gomez retains his fez, the player can get diferent items depending on how many cubes they've obtained when beginning this mode:

First Person Shades

The First Person Shades are an item that's always recieved from the Hexahedron when starting New Game Plus, enabling the ability to go into first person. This item is required for obtaining some Anti-Cubes since there can be hidden Tetromino codes on the ground near certain pillars.

3D Glasses

Like the first person shades, the 3D glasses are an item that's recieved when starting New Game Plus, but it also requires the player to have all 32 Golden Cubes and Anti-Cubes. They allow the player to enable spectography on their screen.

64-Cube Ending

The 64-Cube Ending is the second and final ending in the game, and can be viewed if the player has all 64 cubes (excludes Heart Cubes).

After completely assembling the Hexahedron, a bright light shines from it and simply restarts the game. The player starts at Gomez's House just like before, however after exiting through the door, the camera zooms out of Villageville, first showing many Hexahedrons in a hexagonal pattern, then Hypercubes in the same pattern. Finally, the game goes static, turns off, and thus reaches its conclusion.

Trivia

• Dot's explanation in New Game mode is a misconception, since it states that the player has to find all 32 cubes when there's actually 64 cubes in total.
• The 32-Cube Ending is the only time "Continuum", from the original soundtrack, and "Fin", from the Side Z remix, is played.
• The sunglasses Gomez recieves in New Game Plus is a reference to the 2010 meme "Deal With It".
• The player can have spectroraphy enabled on alternate save files, so long as one of them have achieved the 64-Cube Ending.
• In New Game Plus, there is a special code the player can input that will allow for flight, which is (↑ ↑ ↑ ↑ [Jump]). This will last for as long as the player doesn't make contact with the ground.
• The 64-Ending is the only other time "Legend" from the original soundtrack is played, as the first time is during the game's splash screen.
• The style of Hexahedrons is used as the album cover to FZ: Side F, a remix to the original soundtrack by various artists.
