Infamous Second Sonmoves the series away from the fictionalized settings of Empire City and New Marais and into the real-world Seattle, where game developers Sucker Punch reside. With such a distinct city to capture in-game, Sucker Punch did an excellent job at recreating the memorable skyline. Of course any attempt at recreating Seattle inInfamous Second Sonwould be futile without the inclusion of its most iconic landmark. The game doesn’t just show the Space Needle though; it incorporates it into the gameplay and story.
Mission 7: The Gauntlettasks players with dismantling the Department of Unified Protection’s monitoring equipment, installed atopSeattle’s Space Needle. To do this, players must first climb the spire to the very top and begin fighting waves of D.U.P Agents before they can raise the flag of anarchy and take the fight to Brooke Augustine’s goons. It’s worth noting that the Space Needle can only be climbed during this mission, and will be locked off at all other times.

How to Climb the Space Needle
This mission will begin when Reggie calls regarding the central antenna the D.U.P have retrofitted ontoSecond Son’s stunning Space Needle. The player will then receive a minimap icon indicating the mission start location, at the base of the building. Head there and click the up arrow on the D-Pad to begin the quest.
Use the yellow ladders on either sideof the main entrance to scale the base. Atop this will be rooftop vents that players can Smoke Dash through using Delsin’s powers. After launching into the air, look to the central pillar to seea gray and yellow D.U.P signwhich can be climbed.
Reaching another platform, Smoke Dash through a rooftop vent again to reach ayellow ladder on some scaffolding to the right. Walk along this scaffolding to reach the rear and climb some white planks up to another platform. To the right is another yellow ladder that the player can climb and jump from to reach some yellow cables leading up. Partway up these cables, an elevator will drop down towards Delsin.
UsingDelsin’s Spider-Man-like strength, continue along the cable to a pole from which Delsin can jump onto more exterior scaffolding. From here, scale some more white planks until Delsin reaches one of the makeshift antennas. Looking towards the Space Needle, to the right is another yellow ladder thatDelsin must Smoke Dash midair to reach.
Leading to another antenna, this one will be adorned with more yellow cables that Delsin can hang from. Heading along these cables will take Delsin around the dish to a small platform with another rooftop vent.Smoke Dash through this to reach the roof of the Space Needleand begin bringing down the D.U.P facility and causingInfamous' karmic havoc.
