Arch Bridge Plain is a location and one of 24 save shrines in Shadow of the Colossus.

Description

The save shrine is located southwest of the Western Cape and southeast of the Blasted Lands, and it is one of the two closest save points to both the 6th and 13th colossi. Two white-tailed geckos and three fruit trees can be found nearby. Going over the titular bridge, which requires Agro in order to jump the gaps, will eventually lead to the southwestern side of the 10th colossus' lair.

Location

Located in the southwestern part of the Forbidden Lands in quadrant C5. Its shrine is located in the southeastern part of the region.

Significant nearby areas

• The Western Cape shrine is to the west.
• The Blasted Lands shrine is to the east.
• Canossa, the 6th colossus' arena, is to the southeast.

Trivia

• In the PS4 remake, the name of the save shrine for this area was changed to "Arch Bridge to Badlands". Coincidentally, the arena of the unused colossus named Roc used to be located in quadrant D6, very close to this area.
• Together with Western Cape, the arch bridge had a completely different mood and design to it in the E3 Demo, not requiring Agro to cross it as there were no gaps on it. It resembles earlier screenshots of the game.
