How To Get Arc Raiders Hatch Keys And What They Do

In: Gaming, News

Arc Raiders is a PvPvE third-person extraction shooter where you play the role of a scavenger in an apocalyptic future. In this game, you’re tasked with collecting valuable resources and gear from dangerous locations, and you must safely extract from the map to keep all your loot. Arc Raiders puts you up against robotic and human threats, so extracting with your gear can be difficult, but Raider hatch keys can provide you with a safer route. Our guide explains how you can get Raider hatch keys in Arc Raiders and when to use them.

Each map in Arc Raiders features several extraction points, but every extraction comes with a bit of risk. You’re often battling other players for a safe exit, and you’re also fighting time, as extraction points will start closing as the match time dwindles down. This means there will be times you might want to consider using a Raider hatch key.

How Raider hatch keys work in Arc Raiders

Raider hatch keys are items in Arc Raiders that you can obtain to allow for a safer extraction from your match. These keys can be used on one of several emergency escape hatches located across each map. These Raider hatches offer a quieter escape than normal elevators, as they don’t sound an alarm and there’s no long wait for the door. Raider hatches are marked on your map as an icon that looks like a downward arrow and a half circle, as shown in the image above.

How to get Raider hatch keys in Arc Raiders

There are currently three ways to get these hatch keys in Arc Raiders. You can loot some, purchase them, or craft your own.

You can loot them at random or scavenge them from downed players, but these keys are pretty rare.

Raider hatch key for purchase

They can be purchased from Shani, the Security Trader in Speranza, but this will be a costly option. Buying Raider hatch keys from her costs 9,000 coins, and you need to be at least level 12 to unlock this option. It’s also important to know that there is a cooldown, and you’re only able to buy one hatch key in a 24-hour period.

You can also craft Raider hatch keys. Before you can do this, you must upgrade your workshop by building a utility station. A utility station upgrade costs 50 plastic parts and six ARC alloy to make. Then, crafting keys at the station will cost one Advanced Electrical Component and three Sensor parts.

Best way to use and store your Raider hatch keys

Raider hatch keys are costly, and these are probably best saved for important quests, where you need to better ensure you make it out of the match with your loot. It’s also a good idea to store the key in your safe pocket, so you won’t lose it if you die during your match.

One key will let you and your entire squad extract from the map, but these hatches don’t stay open long, so make sure you stick close together and communicate when you’re using the keys.
