Hell Is Us: How To Get Into the Tower (Arcas Spire)

The Arcas Spire Tower is one of the main locations you visit in Hell Is Us, but entering it isn’t as easy as it may seem.

The tower, Arcas Spire, is a location that literally towers over you whenever you explore the Senedra Forest region of Hell Is Us. Approach the ominous structure, and you’ll be hounded by enemies from all sides. Survive that somehow, and you’ll find that the tower has no entrance.

A lone empty pedestal sits by the Arcas Spire Tower, and Hell Is Us doesn’t really tell you how it works or what to do with it. You CAN enter the tower, but you’ll have to follow a series of steps through the game’s story in order to do so. If you’re wondering what those steps are, this guide is for you.

Remember that lone empty pedestal we mentioned earlier? Well, that is essentially the Arcas Spire’s lock mechanism. A sword slots into that pedestal – the Blood Queen Sword, to be precise. This is a sword you acquire by playing through the main story. 

As you go about playing the game’s main story, you’ll have a whole section with the Blood Queen in Marastan. You’ll have to proceed with the quests in this section, following which you will then get you right inside the Blood Queen’s tomb. You then have to solve a small puzzle, the solution to which is Sword-Crown-Eye-Split Tower. Input this code into the mechanism by her grave to unveil a secret path. You’ll acquire her sword on this path.

Use the Sword to Enter the Tower

Once you have the sword, head back to the Arcas Spire. Kill all the enemies nearby and make your way to the pedestal by the base. Make sure to clear the area before you interact with the pedestal. Walk up to the pedestal and you’ll get a prompt to interact. Press the Interact prompt button shown and then select the Blood Queen Sword from the list of items. You’ll then slot the sword into the lock, opening a secret door.
