Where to find the red button in High on Life 2?
Red button place
The red button NPC is in Circuit Arcadia City Plazadirectly in front of Circuit Arcadia Mall, next to a cream colored car and near the palm trees. He will be standing behind a dark brown standing desk with a single red button in front of him.
As you approach, he will shout out to attract your attention and promise you an interesting moral problem to consider. Whether you engage him or not is up to you. In total, the red button NPC will present their choices to you three different times for increasing amounts of cash.

When you talk to the alien standing next to the red button for the first time, he will offer you the following choices:
- Press the red button: Someone random in the world will die, but you will get 500 Pesos.
- Do not press the red button: No one will die, but you won't get any money.

Yes, you should. If you press the red button for 500 Pesos, you will receive the promised cash from the alien, and he will say that someone random in the world has died. Right after, you'll get a call from your sister Lizzie saying that Gene, your former handler and friend, may be dying. However, this will turn out to be a false alarm, and Gene will be fine.

What happens if you press the red button for a million pesos in High on Life 2?
To get the second encounter, fast travel away from Circuit Arcadia to reset the zone. When you come back you will find the red button NPC in the exact same place.
When you talk to the red button the second time, he will offer you the following choices:
- Press the red button: Someone random in the world will die, but you will get 1,000,000 Pesos.
- Do not press the red button: No one will die, but you won't get any money.
Should you hit the red button for 1,000,000 pesos in High on Life 2?
It doesn't matter. Pressing the red button will give you a million Pesos instantly but it will soon be taken away from you. Unlike last time, the random person who dies isn't so random. Immediately after the button is pressed, the Gatlian you currently have equipped will begin to show signs of death, indicating that it is their life that you must give in exchange for the money.
When you see this, the red button NPC will offer you a second choice:
-
Press the second red button in front of you to change the previous decision.
-
Don't press the second red button and keep one million pesos.
Although this is presented as a choice, it is actually mandatory that you choose the first option. The game will force you to save your weapon's life and refund by preventing you from moving away from the red button, essentially reversing the first decision. There is no way to keep the 1,000,000 pesos.

What happens if you press the red button for ten million pesos in High on Life 2?
To get the third encounter, fast travel away from Circuit Arcadia to reset the zone (just like the previous instance). When you come back you will find the red button NPC in the exact same place.
When you talk to the red button the third time, he will offer you the following choices:
- Press the red button: Someone random in the world will die, but you will get 10,000,000 Pesos.
- Do not press the red button: No one will die, but you won't get any money.
Should you hit the red button for 10,000,000 pesos in High on Life 2?
It doesn't matter. Whether you press the red button or not, you will not get the 10,000,000 Pesos. This is because as soon as the button is pressed, the alien behind the table will keel over and die, meaning the person who would give you the money is the random person who got the short end of the proverbial stick.
Interestingly, if you go behind the table and actually look at the face of the “dead” alien, you will see that his eyes are actually blinking, indicating that he is most likely alive. You can use your Gatlians to shoot this NPC, but no matter how many bullets you put into his skull, he will continue to play dead to avoid having to give you ten million pesos. There is no way to get the money.
The next time you come back to this location, the alien and his red button will be gone. Additionally, there is no achievement or trophy attached to this encounter, so no matter what you choose, there are no lasting consequences. The most you can get out of this interaction is 500 pesos for pressing the red button the first time.
