SCP-025 — The Wardrobe
SCP-025, known as The Wardrobe, is a mid-tier Safe-class anomaly that gained visibility during July 2026 facility showcase tours after the Cold War prop pack and third-floor expansion update. Vendor pricing sits around $3,000—between SCP-010 and SCP-099—making 025 a variety pick rather than a bootstrap income source. Tests behave like standard Safe objects once red triangle desk links connect, but bulky wardrobe props and narrow maintenance-office layouts demand careful pathfinding clearance. This guide covers when to buy 025, how to contain wardrobe hazards without Class-D walk penalties, and how showcase video CEuJCpCrNgQ demonstrates abandoned-wing aesthetics.
What SCP-025 Does in Game
SCP-025 presents as a contained wardrobe hazard. Per-test income follows Safe-class cycling once scientists and Class-D subjects are assigned through Lab Stations and laptops—no Wilderness capture required at the ~$3,000 vendor tier. Community July 2026 clips show Class-D touching the wardrobe during poorly gated maintenance wings, reinforcing that containment doors and staff routing matter even for Safe tags.
Compare Profit tab numbers against fully staffed SCP-005 before treating 025 as an upgrade. A connected SCP-005 chain often outearns a decorative wardrobe cell isolated on an upper floor without elevator-linked cafeterias.
Containment and Layout Tips
Build a standard Safe observation cell with reinforced door facing staff-only corridors. Leave buffer tiles around bulky wardrobe props—July showcase layouts use dim lighting and shelving clusters that widen collision boxes and stall scientist pathfinding if placed too tight.
Route Class-D from nearby Test Subject Zones without forcing them through the wardrobe chamber during transit. Failed pathing during NPC needs beta events can trigger incidental contact animations that interrupt test schedules and inflate medbay load.
- Standard Safe chamber with staff corridor door clearance
- Red triangle link from laptop to SCP-025 cell
- Dedicated scientist + Class-D pair per test chain
- Buffer tiles around wardrobe and Cold War prop clusters
July 2026 Showcase Context
Facility showcase embed CEuJCpCrNgQ walks through a decorated maintenance wing where SCP-025 sits behind blocked doors in an intentionally abandoned office aesthetic. Use the clip for prop placement inspiration—filing cabinets, removed lighting, and boxed clutter—not for assuming per-test income without checking your Profit tab.
The same July update introduced third and fourth floor editing and Cold War decoration packs documented in our patch notes. Pair SCP-025 with shared cafeteria coverage on the same wing as SCP-010 or SCP-067 rather than isolating wardrobe cells on remote upper floors.
Income Planning vs Other Safe SCPs
SCP-025 sits in the mid Safe price band alongside SCP-010 (~$2,000) and SCP-099 (~$4,000). Purchase 025 when you want layout variety and have spare containment tiles—not when SCP-005 still lacks a second Lab Station chain.
Hybrid wings work well: keep SCP-005 as baseline income, add SCP-025 for roleplay-heavy maintenance sectors, and graduate to SCP-067 ink tests once medbay and power coverage stabilize on the same floor.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does SCP-025 cost in SCP Architect X?
Community Safe-class lists place SCP-025 around $3,000 vendor purchase. Confirm on your anomaly vendor UI—beta tuning can shift prices between builds.
Does SCP-025 require capture?
No. SCP-025 is vendor-purchasable like SCP-005 at the Safe tier, unlike Wilderness captures such as SCP-999.
Is SCP-025 worth buying over SCP-005?
Usually no for pure income. Buy 025 for variety and showcase aesthetics after SCP-005 is fully staffed and connected.
Why does the July showcase show Class-D dying near SCP-025?
Poor door gating and path routing let Class-D enter the wardrobe cell during the tour. Proper containment corridors prevent incidental contact even for Safe-class objects.
