Sekiro's Map Layout Explained
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 7 авг 2024
- Let’s take a close look at how the Ashina Lands fit together.
How accurate is the positioning of the various areas as seen from afar?
How the hell did that door lead to the Senpou Temple?
Is the antique map really that useless?
And most importantly, is it animal abuse to use a giant serpent as a ruler?

I was desperately searching for someone to make an in depth explanation of the Sekiro map, so I could understand certain weird connections and this video scratched my itch perfectly, so thank you for that. Also, for such a small channel this is a very well done video, so keep making these!
The world design of Sekiro is one of my favourite aspects of the game. It just flows really beautifully and I cannot help but have a deep appreciation for the artistry and thoughtfulness involved. Truly a masterpiece of a game.
I loved every bit of the video! You should make more (and you definetely deserve more views too)
I absolutely fricking loved this video! As an all-time Sekiro fan, I always had that itch to understand the game's map better since its completely outstanding and you managed to scratch that.
You truly managed to honor this underrated gem's legacy, mate!
omg this deserves so many more views, such a huge effort you took to explain everything! Thank you!
I was just asking myself where that broken bridge in the beginning of the game leads to and now you uploaded this video, awesome!
Thanks a lot for the kind words!
I love game maps stuff, and if a few people learned something interesting from this, then it has been worth it!
@@addypaloozajust be aware that vaatividya WILL steal your content, and even if his braindead viewerbase learn of this, they will make excuses for him.
As an avid Sekiro fan, things like this are endlessly fascinating to me. Fantastic work man. The "great serpent as a ruler to measure depth" bit made me laugh out loud lmao
This is so well made, I don't know why the algorithm hasn't picked it up
Amazing video, this really cleared up some of the questions I had about the game space! I always suspected that Mt. Kongo looked like it was too far away from Ashina Castle to be accurate, so it's vindicating to know I was right. I'm really curious about the in-universe location of the Hirata Estate, the lore implies that it's quite close to Ashina Castle, and I'm guessing it's in the direction of the Sculptors Temple, just because of them both being surrounded by bamboo, but I don't know if there's any other clues about it's location.
Thank you for the kind words! I haven't found any connections between the maps of the Hirata Estate and the rest of the world, I think that the estate is supposed to be located far away beyond the mountains, and that the Antique map only shows it closer to Ashina Castle due to convenience.
One of the best sekiro videos ever thank you
19:17 Thank you for finally explaining that! It's something I should have figured out, but it never actually 'clicked'. I could say the same thing about Mibu Village; I always thought it was quite literally UNDERGROUND, like in a cave complex, instead of just in a REALLY deep, fog-shrouded valley. Again, even with the moon visible, something just was not connecting in my brain.
As others have said, thank you for finally putting this map together and making the proper connections!
Outstanding video! Great job! I thoroughly enjoyed your dissection of this layout, and the fact that Sekiro can be analyzed like this just shows that Miyazaki has a unique talent when it comes to his work. We are lucky to have him.
I've been looking for this kind of video for a long time
This was great. Especially the bit at the end about the connections between the Fountainhead Palace and the Sunken Valley/Mibu Village - that was rad and makes the carp's location make a lot more sense.
This deserves more views.
Highly recommend author to expand to better known games
This is your first video? Holy shit, immaculate stuff
This interconnectedness makes me wish that Sekiro at least for part of the game didn’t have fast travel, like DS1. That would have made understanding the layout more meaningful
For a first time upload, heck even if it wasn't your first video, it had a great production quality and I wasn't really interested in the content. Thanks so much for making an awesome video!
I hope the views match the quality of the video. İncredible work man. It made me look at the game from a different point of view.
I enjoyed this video a lot. Nice to see how many details devs put into map. Thanks for the vid!
Very well explained. Thank you!
amazing work bro, thanks for this.
Measuring depth in giant sneks is just brilliant))
Great video! I know From Software but the attention to detail in the interconnectedness is crazy...
Thanks for the great work bro, your video has a lot of clear details about Ashina castle that I was looking for after finish game
Yea as soon as i started playing this game , i noticed quickly how interconnected the world is . I absolutely love how believable the world is and how u can always where u are at or going with landmarks for other places
Instant sub! Fantastic job on this video, I absolutely loved it. This is my fav sekiro vid on RUclips 🎉
Very nice video!
It was very interesting because it explained what I was wondering about the map structure of Sekiro!
I don't understand English, but thanks to the subtitles I could understand everything👍
Thank you for making this! May I suggest that you change the thumbnail to show the 3D map? Only I almost didn't click on the video because the map you currently have as the thumbnail is the "old" map that I'd already found.
That's a great idea, I'll see what I can do about it. Thanks for the feedback!
Omg man, awesome video. I watched it until the end and then I checked your channel expecting to see thousands of subs and I got shocked, U definitely deserve a lot more! Excelent job in editing and finding out all of that stuff
I love this video! Thank you very much for your great effort!!
Thanks for doing the work on this, great video
I’ve been searching for so long. Thank you RUclips algorithm and of course the video creator
Great job! I had my suspicions about the location of the mibu village, it's good to finally have some form of confirmation
Amazing work you've done with this video. It's very interesting to see the map connecting like this.
Wonderful video. I always had a glancing interest in how everything connected to each other but all the visual examples really helped in piecing the entirety of Sekiro's geography together. Fantastic work.
This is exactly the video I needed, thank you a lot!
ive been waiting for this video 5 years,thank u!
this video deserve more visits. best explanation of sekiro map avalaible.
man awesome video this is impressive work. thanks mane I'll gladly subscribe in anticipation of such good quality :]
Great breakdown mate. Thank you for your efforts.
Great vid!
an amazing video that deserve more. good job!👍👍👍
Amazing video, very informative.
Your videos are so well made wish they got more exposure 😇
Subbed, been looking for this forever
Great explanation!
Thanks for all your effort.
This was truly amazing and made me appreciate the game even more.
Hoping you do end up making the video on Sekiro and it's architectural references.
Great work mate.
Really liked this video. Thank you.
wonderful job man
Great work, very enjoyable.
Nice video bro😊
I would love to hear about the Ashina castle stuff!
10:30 tenchu 2 s musiC!! Yoo i LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!
God! Great video! i grew up on that game franchise! that is why sekiro has aspecial place in my hearth
On God This Video Deserved Millions of Views
Dasoooooooo like that you choose his music makes me so happy rip daso nice vid
Really cool!
Although it may have been for loading purposes, entering the buddhist village before mibu, the lone remaining monk explains that mibu is shrouded by fog by the fountainhead man in the temple below which would explain why it appears invisible from above. That being said i dont believe you see mibu from upper maps even after killing that chump.
Great job! That's exactly what I was looking for at 5 am because I couldn't fall asleep
this is great. i was really wondering how the fountain head palace waters got aaaalllll the way down to mibu village. great video
Great job, this game is beautiful
Will you do the same for other Souls games ?
Thanks! Other youtubers like IllusoryWall have already made amazing videos analyzing the map of the Souls trilogy + Demon's Soul, so as much as I love those games I don't have plans for it at the moment. I'm currently working on a video about Armored Core 6, hope you'll like it!
A small detail I think a lot of people missed is that those are 2 separate serpents. The one in the poison cave has both eyes, where as the one has a bloody eye from where we stabbed it you can see it when you meet it the 2nd time.
subscribed. be prepared for vaatividya plagurising you
I love this video!
Amazing
4:50 I am pretty sure it's for Emma to use. Otherwise it would be really hard to explain how Emma can be at Dilapitated Temple when she needs to take care of Isshin.
I'm not a souls player, came here out of curiosity after enjoying your AC vid. This was very good too ^_^
THE SNAKE RULER LMAOOO
I laughed so hard when you used snake as a ruler.
So the big question I have
There's a locked gate where the flames of hatred idol appears in gyoubu's arena, and I've always wondered what's that way
You can check for yourself on DS Map studio or llok that way from the top of Ashina Castle, but the boring answer is that behind the gate is a road, a few dozen metres long, that ends up nowhere. The gate is supposed to be the main entrance to the castle; this kind of architecture, where a gate leads to an open square area and to another gate at a right angle, is known as "masugata", and is meant to trap in would-be invaders. The arena in the game is maybe a bit too big to serve as a masugata, but I guess they needed a big area to fit Gyoubu and the Demon of Hatred!
I have played this game 4 times and I always end up getting lost.
“Magic” Shinobi door is for Emma to be in castle,not Wolf
Hey dude, is it all right if I use a few clips from this video in my own? Im trying to make a history video about sekiro.
Go ahead!
thx man 😁i'll credit you 👍@@addypalooza
Cfbr
I'm no expert, but i'm fairly shure you wrote all the romaji instances of Ashina castle wrong. It should be Ashina shiro.
I'm no expert either, that's why I had someone else double check! "Shiro" means castle, but it reads "Jō" when attached to a word (e.g., Himeji Castle = Himeji-jō)
@@addypaloozaYou wrote ashi meijou instead of Ashinajou (Ashina castle became Reed famous castle)
