Grav Shaft

Grav Shafts are gravity elevators used to traverse Talos I in Prey (2017).

Overview
Grav shafts are elevators that can direct gravity up and down to allow users to quickly change levels.

They consist of an upwards and downwards shaft side by side. The accessible shaft is covered in pulsing green lights while the inaccessible one is covered in pulsing red lights and a 'Do Not Enter' sign.

Be aware that Phantoms can also use grav shafts, so you may get jumpscared if a Phantom is following you when you enter a grav shaft.

Grav shafts allow Talos I staff to travel faster, as there is only one elevator on Talos I, which only links three areas: Talos I Lobby, Arboretum, and Life Support.

Access
Some of the grav shafts are locked with codes, such as the one that will lead you to Executive Suites in Crew Quarters or Alex Yu's Office in the Arboretum. In most cases, you can either use your GLOO Cannon to make your way up and down or find the code to activate the grav shaft.
