"We are leaving this barbaric planet behind as soon as our ship is repaired."
- Brevon, intent on leaving Avalice once the Dreadnought is repaired


The Dreadnought is a massive galactic warship that is owned and used by Lord Brevon to achieve his goal of galactic conquest. Prior to the events of Freedom Planet, the Dreadnought was locked in a space battle with the Spectrum Chasers, in orbit of planet Avalice. It was shot down and it crashed in the Snowfields near Shuigang. Unfazed by this setback, Brevon made a plan to spark a civil war between the Three Kingdoms, so he could steal the Kingdom Stone in the confusion to power up the Dreadnought, leaving the planet on the brink of war. Thanks to the efforts of Team Lilac, the Dreadnought was destroyed in Avalice's low orbit, while the defeated Brevon escaped the planet. In Freedom Planet 2, wreckage of the Dreadnought was salvaged from the Robot Graveyard by Serpentine and Brevon's remmant forces, and used to build the Shade Armory.

The Dreadnought is also the Final Stage in Freedom Planet, called "Final Dreadnought", and is divided into 4 Rounds.

Stage Overview[]

Team Lilac manages to board the Dreadnought as it blasts off into space, and they come face-to-face with Lord Brevon and the full force of his Army. And so, the Final Battle for the Kingdom Stone Begins, with the fate and future of Avalice hanging in the balance.

Final Dreadnought Round 1[]

"We have intruders on the ship! Mobilize!"
- Lord Brevon, alerted to Team Lilac's presence on the Dreadnought

Final Dreadnought Round 1 is the 9th Stage in Freedom Planet, taking place within the Ship's Main Hanger.


Area 1[]

The area begins as the Player bursts through the walls, running through corridors of the ship (Milla will enter through a hole in the ceiling instead). As that happens, Brevon is alerted to their presence and mobilizes his troops. These corridors have plenty of enemies to deal with and traps to avoid, such as swooping lasers and energy orb-producing pillars. The Stage also introduces teleporters that can be used to get around the area, as well as platforms on rails that can be used to get across gaps in the floor. Further throughout the area, Brevon will appear on the screen in the background and says:

"*Growls*. . . GET THEM."
- Brevon, ordering his troops to attack Team Lilac

In this section, it's recommended to hop into teleporter located near this area and grab an Invincibility Shield Crystal, as the section contains a large group of enemies, such as Shade Elites and Tankbots. After that, it's a few more teleporters and rail platforms and a shorter straightaway to the exit.

Area 2[]

Shortly after the Player enters this area, Brevon will say:

"Open the airlocks!"

Afterwards, the Ships airlocks open up, creating wind that attempts to suck Player down into the holes below, which would lead to an instant death. There are also more enemies, traps, rail platforms, and teleporters awaiting the Player as they make their way through. When the final door is reached, a seemingly endless hallway begins as the door shuts behind and the laser behind activates. Enemies and traps will try to hinder while dashing through the hall, and Brevon will say:

"Run while you still can, creature!"

After a few obstacles, the Boss Fight against Syntax in her Morpher-Mode will start. The boss has three basic attacks: Shooting down and shooting up, then transforms into Train Mode, where she shoots lasers, which travel a rectangle shaped route. In a certain section, the boss adds a Pogo Form causing shockwaves as it lands. In the last form, Syntax goes right side of the screen and shoots energy balls.

Final Dreadnought Round 2[]

Final Dreadnought 2 Stage Select Icon Overview Transcript

Final Dreadnought Round 2 is the 10th Stage in Freedom Planet, taking place in the Ship's Armory.


Area 1[]

The Player teleports into the area and there's several Axle Turrets at the beginning of the Stage. This area features plenty of enemies, traps, teleporters, barricades that use pressure mechanism by closing when going off from them, and locked doors that require keycards to open, like the ones seen in Thermal Base. As the Player continues, they'll ride elevator platforms to proceed even further up through the area as well. Along the way, if playing as Lilac or Carol, Milla will appear out of the air ducts and assist the Player by throwing Life Flowers and Shield Crystals (Wood and Water). In the section where Milla first appear in this stage, there's a Robosquid, who needs to be damaged until it drops its keycard while avoiding the lasers it shoots. After reaching the bottom of the area, few more enemies and making use of the rising platforms before proceeding to the next area.

Area 2[]

This area is dedicated for rotating platforms while dealing with more enemies and avoiding more traps. Once the Player reaches a certain point as Lilac or Carol, Brevon will say the following line:

"You're forgetting something important about our troops. They don't . . . . . . need . . . . . . oxygen!"
- Brevon, cutting off the Dreadnought's oxygen supply


After this, the room goes dark and no more oxygen is available (this doesn't happen if playing as Milla). Unlike underwater, the oxygen gauge depletes faster for Lilac. On Casual and Easy Mode, there are air bubbles scattered in this area to keep air gauge filled. To avoid running out of oxygen in the absence of the air bubbles on Normal and Hard Mode, Milla will assist by throwing Water Shield Crystals, which are the best and unavoidable way to get through the rest of the Stage alive. Another key card must be found to proceed through the door as well. Later on, there's an elevator, which works by holding down press switches to raise platforms through three vertical chambers filled with spiked mines. Once the player reaches the top, the oxygen supply will come back on and there are 4 Extra Lives in the way (a 5th one is hidden the other side of the bridge) before the Boss Fight with Serpentine, who turns into a Mutant Monster and attacks the Player.

Final Dreadnought Round 3[]

Final Dreadnought 3 Stage Select Icon Overview Transcript

Final Dreadnought Round 3 is the 11th Stage in Freedom Planet, taking place in the Ship's Warp Drive.


Area 1[]

The Player teleports into the area like they did back in Round 2. This area introduces gates that boost the chosen character's speed, allowing them to move even faster. There's also plenty of enemies and traps as well, including the rotating flame jets that are also introduced here. As with Thermal Base and Round 2, keycards are needed to open up keycard doors as well. Once again, Brevon taunt the Player by announcing the following dialogue:

"Ohhh nooo! My ship is being infiltrated! What ever shall I do? How about THIS."
- Brevon, before activating an array of turrets


At this point the alarms will go off and Gatling Guns will be activated that follow movements with rapid blasts of double lasers enabled to Stunlock.

Area 2[]

There are more enemies in this area to deal with as proceeding through this area, as well as more Gatling Guns, speed gates, teleporters, and other traps. Another keycard must be found and use it to open a keycard door as well. The last obstacle before the exit door is a giant rotating ring with flames spouting inward. Though there is a small opening to which our heroes can use to enter and escape this minor obstacle.

Area 3[]

Lilac, Carol & Torque's Stories[]

When entering this area, a cutscene will play where Lilac & Carol use the devices they received from Torque to deactivate the Dreadnought's power supply to recover the Kingdom Stone, only for Brevon to show up with Milla as his hostage, forcing them to remove the device and reactivate the power supply for the sake of their friend's life. Brevon destroys the device, drops Milla and leaves the room. As the Player tries to comfort Milla, her eyes glow red and she transforms into a Mutant Monster beginning the boss fight where Lilac and Carol are forced to fight against their own friend. After defeating Milla, another cutscene will play showing her falling into a death-like coma and the Character's reactions. Lilac will scream in anger, then Dragon Boosts out of the room, Carol will dry her tears, angrily pouncing out of the room and Torque will blame himself for what happened, then dashes out of the room in anger, cursing Brevon's name.

Milla's Story[]

If playing as Milla, there is no Boss Fight, since she's playable in this Round and the next. Instead, a cutscene will play where Milla finds Torque with an unconscious Carol. He tells her that Brevon ambushed her and Lilac went off to stop him alone. Milla resolves to help Lilac and head off to do so after she promises Torque to keep an eye on her.

Final Dreadnought Round 4[]

Final Dreadnought 4 Stage Select Overview Transcript
"I offer you one final chance. Leave! Now!"
- Brevon, threatening Lilac, Carol or Milla to make them leave the Dreadnought

Final Dreadnought Round 4 is the 12th and Final Stage in Freedom Planet, taking place within the Ship's Core.


Area 1[]

This area begins in a vertical chamber that must be climb up through. Along the way, they must fight enemies and make use of hovering springs and the disappearing blocks first seen in Pangu Lagoon. At one point, there comes a section, where every teleporter sends the player back to the bottom. When getting to the top of the section, there's one last teleporter, which takes upwards. After that, gravity fields must be used to climb even higher. At the top, it's a short straightaway to the right and then back down to the exit, where are few more enemies and more large turrets to fight.

Area 2[]

In this area, more climbing back up even further, fighting more enemies, avoiding more traps, and making more use of the gravity fields along the way. This section introduces a mega laser firing downwards. The damage of the laser can Stunlock and kill the Player with one shot, but sometimes if lucky, some health is still left. Fortunately, there are short pause in-between firings, giving the Player some time to act before the laser fires again. After finally reaching the top again, it's just a short straightaway to the exit at the right, lined with just a few more enemies. Just as the Player enters the final area, the entire screen will pause and turn red as a dramatic effect, showing that they are about to face the Final Boss of the Game: Lord Brevon.

Area 3[]

As they enter the final hallway, the player fights a few more stationary turrets while being locked on target by an off-screen gun/cannon, which doesn't appear in Milla's story, as they're heading towards the final gravity field. After entering said gravity field and riding it up to the final room above, the Character will have a smack-down talk with a certain heartless monster sitting on the pillar to the right of the one the Kingdom Stone is in: Lilac shouts at Brevon enraged, that she will never forgive him for mutating Milla, Carol angrily states that what he did to Milla is unforgivable and wants to see him dead, and Milla, with tearful terror in her eyes, desperately asks him where Lilac is. Brevon, of course, responds to the former two, stating that he has no use for forgiveness from someone putting his homeworld at risk for an "Oversized Battery", while he tries to make Milla despair when he claims what a fool Lilac was for challenging him and even claims to have killed her. He offers them one final chance to leave, but the Character refuses, and from there, the 3-Phase Final Battle will begin against the alien overlord, Lord Brevon himself. In Milla's Story, it is a 2-Phase Final battle.

The Final Battle begins as the wall in the background disappears and a purple night sky is shown for effect as the Dreadnought moves across the sky. In the 1st Phase, Brevon jumps into the Absolution and attacks. After the Player damages the Absolution, it will fly to the center of the room, where Brevon exits out of it and equips his Power Suit, beginning the 2nd Phase of the fight. Before the 3rd Phase of the fight begins, a short cutscene will play for Lilac or Carol. Lilac will angrily state to Brevon that his machines will not save him from the "Dragon he has unleashed", that she will destroy everything thrown at her, making him pay for what's he's done, while Carol taunts Brevon, declaring she'll be taking the Kingdom Stone. Brevon, breaking out of his damaged Power Suit, states that he'd like to see them try, beginning the 3rd and Final Phase of the Boss Fight.

After defeating Brevon, one more cutscene will play, showing the Character delivering the final blow. Lilac will Dragon Boost into Brevon as she shouts out "Nobody. . . Hurts. . . Milla!!!", with the third boost being a Super Dragon Boost. Carol will throw a barrage of Claw Combos at Brevon, getting faster as she attacks. In Milla's Story, a pestered Brevon will break out of his damaged Power Suit, then grabs Milla by the throat in an attempt to choke her to death. Luckily, she is saved by Lilac, who Dragon Boosts into Brevon (just like in her own ending).

Trivia[]

  • Final Dreadnought is styled after the final sets of stages in several Mega Man Games and various Mega Man-inspired games, most notably the Wily Castle Stages in the Classic Mega Man Series as well as the Tower of Fate in Shovel Knight and both the Zeppelin Stages and the Iris Stages in the Rosenkreuzstilette Series. One notable difference is the lack of a boss rush room near the end of Final Dreadnought.
    • The final part of the stage seems to also be reminiscent of Ristar's final level, Planet Greedy, where the hero had to climb up a tower to reach the game's antagonist, fighting through the remaining defenses and going up a shaft to reach the final boss.
  • The Extra Life music does not normally play should a 1-up be obtained within any of the 4 Final Dreadnought stages.
  • When Mutant Milla is defeated, the Player can destroy her other eye while she is exploding.
    • If there are still Life Petals when the fight is over, they are collected if the character passes them during the Cutscene Animation.
  • In the dialogue with Brevon, one of the text boxes of the Playable Character appears in the same color scheme used when Brevon talks, which is red.
  • In Final Dreadnought 3, once Carol reaches the power supply room, if she is still riding her bike she will automatically jump off of it to play out the cutscene.
  • In Final Dreadnought 4, the Absolution, Brevon's Power Suit & Lord Brevon himself, are the only Bosses in Freedom Planet who have visible Life Meters, although Brevon's Life Meter appears into the original game's HUD as the Final Battle with him starts. The Life Meters of the Absolution and Brevon's Power Suit appear as the two columns in the foreground next to the Kingdom Stone: green for the Absolution's Life Meter is the Green Column, and the Power Suit's Life Meter is the Orange Column.
