*Assassin’s Creed Shadows* finally delivers the long-awaited feudal Japan setting that fans have been clamoring for since the series began, and it's nothing short of spectacular. With a wealth of activities to engage in—or avoid—the game offers a rich experience. If you're considering scaling the torii gates in *Assassin’s Creed Shadows*, here's what you should know.
Can You Climb the Torii Gates in Assassin’s Creed Shadows?
To get right to the point, yes, you can climb the torii gates scattered throughout *Assassin’s Creed Shadows*. However, doing so won't affect your gameplay in any significant way.
Early in the game, as you take control of Naoe and explore the open world, you'll encounter Shinto shrines marked by torii gates at their entrances. The game advises against climbing these gates to honor their sanctity, but if you choose to defy this suggestion, you can reach the top. However, you won't find anything of interest up there; it's merely an act of defiance without purpose.
Why Shouldn’t You Climb the Torii Gates?
In Japanese culture and Shinto beliefs, torii gates serve as spiritual gateways, marking the transition between the sacred and the profane. These structures are treated with reverence, and climbing them is considered disrespectful. This cultural significance is why the game explicitly advises players against such actions.
While climbing the torii gates won't lead to any in-game penalties, it's important to respect these cultural symbols. It's simply good manners to refrain from doing so.
That covers everything you need to know about climbing the torii gates in *Assassin’s Creed Shadows*. For more tips and insights on the game, be sure to visit The Escapist.
