Giant Ink Machine
- This article refers to the ink realm's giant machine. For other uses, see Ink Machine (disambiguation).
The giant Ink Machine is a massive machine created by the Gent Corporation that's located in the giant Ink Machine lair of the ink realm. The Ink Demon used this location as his lair to stop the cycle from resetting.
History
At some point, presumably close to the creation of the regular Ink Machine, Gent created the giant Ink Machine likely under Joey Drew's orders. How the machine ended up in the ink realm is unclear; however, it is possible that it was built into the ink realm rather then being re-created from the real world.
Background
The giant Ink Machine is a huge machine with a labyrinth-like facility underneath the machine. It is a large area filled with test tubes that are creating ink creatures, such as the Lost Ones and Boris clones. The location also includes a throne room, a pumps station, and a mechanism that is used to reset the cycle with "The End" reel. The giant Ink Machine is also the Ink Demon's lair as he takes his possessions there and protects the location through any means necessary.
Unlike the regular Ink Machine, it is unknown if this version of the machine has a real world counterpart as well.

Functions
While not much is known about its function, the machine contains multiple of test tubes with Lost Ones and Boris clones being in the creation process. Meaning that it also could be used to create ink creatures just like the regular Ink Machine. The ink realm's Ink Machine also seems to be connected to its giant counterpart as it was lowered straight onto it from above.
Additionally, while not exclusive to the machine, the giant Ink Machine was the main location that was used to reset the cycle using "The End" reel thanks to a mechanism located inside the machine.
Behind the scenes
The giant Ink Machine was seen in Bendy and the Ink Machine: Chapter 5 in the giant Ink Machine lair. It also serves as the main setting for the chapter's climax.
The Joey Drew Studios Employee Handbook seems to imply that the giant Ink Machine was a real world object and was stored in the depths of the studio itself.[1] But since the books are not canon, whether this implication matters to the games is unclear.
