Simple Key Functionality Explained

This versatile tool unlocks specific barriers encountered later in your journey. Prioritize purchasing maps before investing in the key. Notably, each key operates single-use, currently granting access to two confirmed locations requiring updates as more discoveries surface.

Deep Docks Barrier Access

Within Deep Docks lies a subterranean chamber beneath a mechanical floor panel. Descend through the opening created by activating a lever preceding the Lace encounter. Traverse the rightward path beyond molten terrain to find the sealed entryway.

Bone Bottom Secret Pathway

Accessible post-acquiring the Swift Step ability, this challenge requires ascending Bone Bottom’s central lift. Perform consecutive aerial maneuvers to reach suspended platforms west of the elevator shaft. Navigate cautiously through acidic hazards within the subsequent tunnel to locate the second key-operated barrier.
