The Holiday Sconce is a festive decorative item added in the Abiotic Factor Cryosphere Update, and it’s fairly easy to get once you know where to look. You don’t need to fight any enemies or complete a long quest it mostly comes down to exploring the new portal area and interacting with the right objects. This guide will walk you through the steps so you can get the Holiday Sconce.
How to Get a Holiday Sconce

Step into a magical world as you board the train, arrive at the platform, and find yourself in a snowy new area filled with mystery. To start uncovering the story behind the new Immurement Subjects, you’ll need to explore the Dirac Containment Wing inside Cascade Laboratories, but only after you’ve finished the required part of the main story.
First, make your way inside the Lab. Instead of heading toward the Sector, turn and go to the other side of the lab wing. In this wing, you’ll find the new portal, the one that gives access to the latest items and content. Open the door and step through it. Once inside the portal area, you’ll see a huge building nearby. Head straight toward it. Inside the building, keep an eye out for a specific light. Interact with it.
- There’s about a 50% chance it might break, so don’t worry if it doesn’t work the first time.
- If it works, you’ll get the item instantly.
This item isn’t limited to just one building. You can find similar lights in other buildings within the portal area. Not every light works, but many of them can drop the item. If one light breaks, just move on and try another. With a few attempts across different buildings, you should be able to get the item without much trouble.
