All Drift Crystal Locations in Luna Abyss
There are 15 red crystals scattered around various chapters in the game. Here are all Luna Abyss Drift Crystal locations:
Drift Crystal 1 – Chapter I: Sorrows Canyon
This is right after you’re introduced to the crouching mechanic of the game. Keep going down the path. Take a right and then right again. Jump off the moving platform to the other side. Instead of the stairs, take a left on the big pipe. A little bit down the pipe, you spot the first red crystal known as the Drift Crystal. Destroy it.
You’ll unlock the Dark Crystal achievement here.
Drift Crystal 2 – Chapter I: Wardens Regret
Right at the start of the Wardens Regret, head down the straight path, and then to your left, there’s your second Drift Crystal to destroy.
Drift Crystal 3 – Chapter II: Weeping Meadows
Once you spot this sign on the wall, shoot this creature off the floor. Then crawl to the other side. Make your way to the other side of the pipes. Then head up the stairs to destroy the third Drift Crystal.
Drift Crystal 4 – Chapter II: Weeping Meadows
In the very same sub-chapter, when you get to this open area and after the cutscene, walk down the stairs and turn right. At the end of this path, up on the rocky walls, there’s your fourth red crystal to destroy.
Drift Crystal 5 – Chapter II: Scourge Crater
It’s pretty much obvious where this location in the game is. It requires you to do some platforming. This gives you the fifth Drift Crystal. The moment you destroy it, you get the Crystal Cleanser achievement as well.
Drift Crystal 6 – Chapter III: The Drift Mines
The second you start the Drift Mines part of the game, turn around and continue down the path for the 6th red crystal.
Drift Crystal 7 – Chapter III: Riding the Rails
For the 7th Drift Crystal, in Riding the Rails in Chapter 3, in the purple room you talk with Otis, just like what the picture shows, it’s up on the walls.
Drift Crystal 8 – Chapter III: Riding the Rails
In the very same sub-chapter, where you get to this open space with floating hard rocks, look for the red crystal sign on one of the rocks. It’s pretty straightforward. Again, do some platforming until you get to the very rock I highlighted in the picture. Be warned, though. It’s a little bit tricky to get on top.
Drift Crystal 9 – Chapter IV: The City of Greymont
When you get to this church with these statues, you know you’re in the right place. It’s a bit frustrating to destroy the 9th red crystal. It’s located on the pipe that’s near the ceiling of the church. So, you have to do some platforming for sure.
Drift Crystal 10 – Chapter IV: The Catacombs
The 10th red crystal is hidden in plain sight. Crouch when you get to this section, then you’re going to fall. After landing, just turn around and destroy the crystal. You’ll unlock the Crystal Purifier achievement.
Drift Crystal 11 – Chapter V: One Last Job
After you do some platforming, you get to this big open area. When you get to this location where you can see this building, turn left for the 11th crystal to destroy.
Drift Crystal 12 – Chapter V: Pillar of Ash
Near the end of Pillar of Ash, you should slide through the crack of the wall. Get on the bouncing pads and slide through this spot. Go through the triangle door and destroy the red crystal.
Drift Crystal 13 – Chapter V: The Hanging Towers
After the Mother Eyes boss fight, head outside to the right. You can see the sign in the picture. That’s where you should go. Shoot a couple of these sticky things and continue to destroy your 13th Drift Crystal.
Drift Crystal 14 – Chapter V: Mani’s Folly
When you get off the roller coaster, use the three grapplers to get to the upper section for the 14th crystal.
Drift Crystal 15 – Chapter VI: The Womb of Silence
Last but not least, after the giant glowing white ball cutscene, turn back and destroy the last red crystal and be done with it.
Congrats. Now that you’ve destroyed the 15th red crystal, you just unlocked the Crystal Eradicator achievement, plus the three achievements (which I mentioned earlier) along the way.
