Shade Gate

A gate made from Void found in various places throughout Hallownest. They are indestructible and cannot be deactivated. If The Knight moves into it, it will bounce them backwards, but deal no damage. Spells pass through Shade Gates.

To move through it, the Knight must use the Shade Cloak and Shadow Dash through it. This means that a Shade Gate cannot be passed until later in the game after The Abyss can be accessed.

Trivia

• If The Knight is holding a map while trying to walk through the Shade Gate, they will not bounce backwards.
• Enemies can pass through the Shade Gate.
• Due to a bug, The Knight can pass through a Shade Gate with a normal dash if they have the Shade Cloak (but it's on cooldown) if the dash ends while nearly touching the gate.
