How to unlock the full Weeping Creek Valley map in Phantom Blade Zero

Phantom Blade Zero's Weeping Creek Valley map has hidden areas that can only be discovered after progressing through the game. To reveal these areas, players must find bells, which act as teleport waypoints, scattered throughout the map. The map is divided into three optional regions, and unlocking each one requires specific actions.

The first area to unlock is located west of the Outpost. To access it, players must teleport to the Valley Sha-Chi Tower's 1st Floor bell. From there, they need to drop down through a hole in the floor, defeat minor enemies, and locate the red flower glade. Defeating the mini-boss Hua, known as The Betrothed, in this area will unlock the bell and reveal the map section.

For the second optional area, the Creek Valley Plains, players must first defeat the main boss, The Hunt. Winning this battle rewards players with the Hunter's Chain Sickle weapon. To access the second region, Crimson Forest, the Hunter's Chain Sickle is required. Once this region is unlocked, teleport to the Valley Sha-Chi Tower Summit and swing onto a ledge using the Chain Sickle to obtain the Sha-Chi Tower Base Camp Gate Key.

Returning to the Creek Valley Plains Entrance and using the key on the gate will reveal this optional area.

The final region, the southwest part of Weeping Creek Valley, can only be unlocked by completing the main story within the Crimson Forest. Players must defeat Bai Chilian, also known as The Sacrificial Serpent, and reach the Village of Lu for the first time. After doing so, return to the Outpost and kill all the guards who have turned into monsters.

Once these steps are completed, players can cross the bridge and climb the cliff on the left side of the small settlement to fully unfog the last part of Phantom Blade Zero's Weeping Creek Valley map.
