How to unlock the Madness at the Core of Time achievement in Infernax - Definitive Guide

To go to the future you need to get at least 90% complete in the Demonology. This will most likely need you to do good, pure good, evil and pure evil runs in order to reach all areas and see all enemies and bosses. But it seems like you can miss some as you will see a max of 95% in all 4 playthroughs and players are reporting that Gregor will do this once you are over 90% Demonology.

Once you are over 90%, get the Necronomicon again and go see Gregor in Tohan Passage and he will take you to the future.

In order to get the Necronomicon, you must be on an ultimate good playthrough doing enough good deeds to trigger the attack on the cult. (see Necronomicon achievement)

Complete this short level and kill the boss and pop.

Last edit: Just confirming that you can use Game Wizard cheats and the Konami code to still unlock achievements and build up your Demonology for this ending. And if you're going to try to go for Ultimate Evil, then you really need to commit since it seems stricter than Ultimate Good as far as I can tell.

^CageDemon is from the choice you encounter outside of Arkos barracks at night, one screen right of the main town. Either option should get you the entry in your book so it's just a matter of showing up at night.

Possessed is pretty missable too: after you beat Stormheim Castle (3rd dungeon, east of Arkos) you have to go one screen west of Darsov Barracks/Cathedral. The priest Julius will be standing by the hole and will tell you about the situation. This is missable if you're teleporting and infinite jumping all across the map to speed through the 5 main dungeons.

I'm about to head into what I think is the Good dungeon and have 70% after doing just about everything I can think of, if that helps set expectations. I'm going to try an evil playthrough with game wizard codes before I proceed to see if that helps me go from Good to Ultimate Good and I'll edit in an update here unless someone beats me to it.

Edit: I sped through a cheat-filled evil run and it didn't add much to my demonology count, but I proceeded to the sealed door in my good playthrough and was surprised to find I had gotten mixed up. I was able to do the ultimate good playthrough after all and added quite a bit to my demonology. Up to 86% now and I guess I'm going to do another evil run, being more careful not to lock myself out of the last cult quest this time.

Also to note, you must be on a ultimate good playthrough to do this, so you can just load up your ultimate good run, you should get an autosave before you go into the last area

I somehow missed a mage on my ultimate good playthrough, so I was at 94%, though I was still able to progress with Gregor.

You actually dont need 95% - I did it at around 92%,so I guess 90-ish is egnough.

You need to be at 94% at least. I'm currently at 93% and Gregor won't let me acces it.

He rejected me at 93%, missing the 'normal' final boss and a cultist in the second base (that I'd left to Tancred).

He accepted me at 94%, having beaten the final boss, but still missing that cultist.

Worked for me at 93%, I had already killed all bosses (normal, UGood and UEvil). The only thing I was missing was killing the possessed priest and the human mage and obviously all the future entries. So it might be 90ish% with all 3 boss versions

You can go to Gregor after beating the last boss if you have 94% of entries or more in the library. No need for yet another playthrough.
I just did it after Baphomet, the true last boss of the ultimate good playthrough.

To travel to the future, you need to complete at least 90% - 94% of Demonology. This will most likely require you to complete the game perfectly for good and evil in order to reach all areas and kill all enemies and bosses.

As soon as you exceed 90% of the book, go to Gregor in Tokhan Pass with the Necronomicon, then he will send you to the future.

To obtain the Necronomicon, you must complete the best possible playthrough, doing enough good deeds to provoke an attack on the cult. (see achievement Necronomicon)

To travel to the future, you need to complete exactly 95% of demonology. Filled with an ideal passage for good + ideal for evil (you may also need to complete an ordinary passage for evil or good). All this, of course, must be done without replacing save files. You can move to the future on any character, even after completing the entire plot.
The remaining 5% of demonology will be filled after the future.

When passing, 92% was enough. Complete completion was taken into account for true evil and good. (+ final choice for the bad guy - kill Robert. In order to get one boss in Demonology.)
