Quick Links

The Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe Edition serves as a faithful recreation of the original 2013 release and expands on it with new content. There are even secret endings that can be accessed across multiple playthroughs, and the Heaven ending is one example.

Across The Stanley Parable's office layout, there are multiple computer monitors. Most of them are simple designs that turn off when the player interacts with them, but specific monitors display an ominous "AWAITING INPUT" text message. When all are interacted with successfully, the secret ending will unveil itself. This requires at least four restarts, which can be achieved by reaching another story ending or manually beginning the game again via the pause menu.

Heaven Ending Monitor Locations 1 - 3

The Stanley Parable - Ultra Deluxe Heaven 1

On a fresh playthrough, the first monitor that begins the Heaven Ending path is on Employee 419's desk. This is found in the second open-plan office room after Stanley leaves his office. Once the keyboard has been activated, a beep sound can be heard, with the text changing to "INPUT RECEIVED." This occurs for all five monitors.

The Stanley Parable - Ultra Deluxe Heaven 2

Once the player has reset to a new Stanley Parable playthrough, the next input monitor can be found on Employee 423's desk directly on the left after Stanley leaves his office. The next monitor can be found outside the Boss's Office, but it cannot be activated in the same playthrough, so another ending/reset needs to occur first.

The Stanley Parable - Ultra Deluxe Heaven 3

The third monitor requires the player to guide Stanley through the left door and up the stairs towards the Boss's Office. The monitor is outside the office; players should ensure they interact with it before entering the office, or they will need to restart and attempt it again.

The Stanley Parable - Ultra Deluxe Heaven 4

The fourth monitor is close to the start once again; as soon as the player resets, they can head over to Employee 434's desk and interact with it. Only one more input is required and can be seen immediately on a fresh playthrough.

The final monitor screen replaces Stanley's PC in the office. This will remain on the office monitor even if Stanley leaves the office to seek another ending, but since the door closes once Stanley leaves, it will require another reset to access it. Once activated, Stanley will be teleported to his own personal heaven.

Troubleshooting the Heaven Ending

The Stanley Parable - Ultra Deluxe Confusion

Due to the semi-random nature of The Stanley Parable's office layout and other Easter eggs, the corridors containing the input monitors can occasionally be replaced by another office design such as the above blue room or just a direct corridor. If this happens, the player only needs to reset until the layout has returned to "normal."

Also, the Heaven Ending can not be exited once all the monitors have been interacted with; the only way to return to a new game is by pausing and restarting the game again. This ending allows Stanley (and the player) to interact with all 432 brightly lit buttons to their heart's content.

The Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe Edition is playable on PC, PS4, PS5, Switch, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
