Use the database when the in-game map is not enough

Manhattan is built from large, layered Zones rather than one flat open-world sheet. Streets, interiors, Faults and gravity changes can place the objective above, below or behind the marker you see.

Each route below names the starting point, destination, movement gate, mission and version checked. Unverified coordinates are omitted instead of being presented as a complete map.

Route records show their verified build / patch notes checked through 1.4.2

Find a route by Zone, ability, obstacle or quest

Start with the objective that is blocked, then check whether the path needs a traversal ability, an environmental mechanic or an earlier quest. Coordinates are omitted when the game itself uses layered interiors or changing gravity.

01 / Read the layer

Check elevation before changing direction

A nearby marker may sit on a roof, in a tunnel or inside a building. Look for a transition point before circling the same street.

02 / Read the gate

Return after the required movement ability

Reach, Shift and other traversal rewards open routes that are deliberately inaccessible on the first visit.

03 / Read the objective

Match the route to the active mission

Main objectives, World Quests and Faults can reuse a Zone for different reasons. Confirm the objective before following a path.
