The Seafloor Palace is a new location in Kid Icarus: Uprising. As its name suggests, this legendary structure is hidden deep underwater, only accessible by a magical pathway located beneath the waves. Supposedly, only divine beings like Palutena can part the sea to reveal this path to the palace. When traversing it, Pit will apparently have to fly very close to the ground and may even have to run extensively while avoiding numerous rocks that litter the seabed, in addition to Medusa's aquatic forces. As of yet, not much is known about the Seafloor Palace itself, although it essentially resembles a massive underwater aquarium.
Trivia
