Arcane keys are the items you use to open up arcane chests in different locations. They give different cosmetics items to customize the characters. Here is how you can get arcane keys in the game.

Marvel’s Midnight Suns is a card-based action game where it tells an original story in the Marvel universe. Many well-known and lesser-known heroes show up in the game to fight this new threat. There are thirteen different characters you can use to play the game. Each round will let you choose and control three characters out of the whole cast.

The combat in this game is card based. So naturally, it is a turn-based combat system where you draw and use cards in every round. You can also unlock different cosmetics for the characters. The cosmetics are unlocked using Arcane keys, and they don’t give any advantage in combat.

You can get arcane keys by doing various things in the game. Then you will have to find an arcane chest and unlock it to receive the cosmetics reward. Here is how you can get Arcane keys in the game.

How to Get Arcane Keys

There are a few ways to get arcane keys in the game. Some keys are tied to a quest, while others follow a different method to reward you with a key. Here are all the ways you can get an Arcane key in Marvel’s Midnight Suns:

Explore Abbey Ground

The Abbey ground is an area with many secrets. Arcane keys are also a part of that. You will find arcane keys lying around if you explore the Abbey. So make sure to take your time to explore and hunt down any arcane keys hidden in the area.

Four Elemental Rods Quest

As you progress through the game, in one of the side quests, you will be asked to find four elemental rods and insert them into Agatha’s Alter. Collecting all four of these rods will find four keys either along the path or as a reward. From this quest, you should be able to get four arcane keys.

Reveal Word of Power

In the Abbey, these are scattered around the map. You must find and break these hidden walls to reveal a secret behind them. And most of the time, this secret item will be an arcane key. So complete any word of power you come across to get an arcane key.

Sparring

Keep an eye on your hero list for when they want to do a sparring match. These sparring matches will give you XP, but more importantly, you will also get an arcane key from each sparring. So make sure to do these whenever they show up.

Night Offering

On Agatha’s Alter, there is a bowl where you can offer artifacts. This is the best way to get arcane keys. However, this will destroy the artifact you offered. So make sure you are not offering any useful or necessary items there. But other than that, as long as you provide an artifact, you will get an arcane key from it.
