Sifu’s second level, the Club, ratchets up the difficulty for players. Players enter this new area the age they were when they left the Squats, increasing the challenge for those who were defeated multiple times in that first level. This, combined with more challenging enemies in this level ofSifu, results in a level a bit more satisfying for those looking to test their skills.
However, those challenges can make getting the pass required to unlock this shortcut especially challenging. For those players looking to unlock the shortcut on the Club level andget through this level ofSifumuch quicker, this guide is here to help.
Where Is The Shortcut In Sifu’s Club Level?
Fortunately, the shortcut in this level is similarly placed asthe shortcut inSifu’s Squats level. Both are near the beginning of their respective levels, and both make for a much quicker run once unlocked. Players will find the shortcut door within the main room that features a dance floor. The door that acts as this level’s shortcut is located on the right side and in the far back of this room.

to get to this area, players first need tohead through the main door of the building they encounter when entering the level.This opens to a small entryway with a noncombatant NPC as well as a pair of enemies that will put up fierce resistance. Players can testtheir basicSifuskills hereand, once those two enemies are knocked out, players can open the pair of doors to the main room with the shortcut inside.
How To Unlock The Shortcut In The Club Level
In order to earn the shortcut, players need to have cleared that main dance floor room, as well as its mini boss. There is a shrine located on the lower level just to the right of the DJ booth that players should remember to use, and then they can head to the left side of the room. A door will open, bringing the player into conflict with even more gang members. This open door leads to a small room that players need to fight their way through as well.
Up the staircase, players will come across another hallway with challenging NPCs, as well as another conversation option. Players can ask this harmless gang member about the two large enemies at the far end of the hall, but the result will always be an intense battle. Any ofthe common mistakes made inSifuare going to get players into serious trouble here. This next area is a bar that overlooks a fighting pit. To progress, take out all NPCs in this section as well as those in the fighting pit.
Once in the pit, players will notice bright red flashes as they take down more enemies. With the defeat of the last opponent in the area, the scene will dramatically change to a red background. From here, just go through the open door and work towards another mini boss. This lone fighter willunlock the Disciple’s Pass once he has been defeated. This is the key for the shortcut that leads tothis level ofSifu’s boss.
Where Does The Shortcut Put Players?
On the player’s next attempt,this Disciple’s Pass can now be used to open the door on the right inside the main dance floor room.Though players still need to defeat all the enemies within this main room first, the shortcut brings players right to the area after the second mini boss and right to another one ofSifu’s shrines.
This shortcut leads to the training room right before the trial-filled section of the level. Players should avoid a fight in this area — walk across the room and a dialogue option will open up. This makes for a much shorter, much less challenging route to the later stages of the level and toSifu’s second boss, Sean the Fighter.
