How to Use Fast Travel in Valor Mortis—Unlock Guide
Valor Mortis features a fast travel system designed to help players navigate its semi-open-world environment after unlocking key progression points. According to guides from multiple gaming outlets, fast travel becomes available after defeating General Lothaire, which unlocks the Abandoned Church hub area—a central location where players can speak with survivors, upgrade weapons, and purchase items.
The Abandoned Church serves as the game’s primary fast travel hub, requiring players to activate the Lantern within it to enable the fast travel functionality. The feature takes several hours of gameplay to unlock, making it a mid-to-late game progression feature rather than something available from the start.
The fast travel system is particularly valuable for Valor Mortis’ Metroidvania-style exploration, as it allows players to revisit previous areas once they gain new abilities without having to manually traverse the plague-ridden battlefields repeatedly. This design philosophy is common in exploration-focused games, where fast travel encourages backtracking to discover optional areas and missed items.
