ARC Raiders Blue Gate Communication Tower Key — Location and Loot Breakdown

The Blue Gate Communication Tower Key is a single-use key in ARC Raiders used on the Blue Gate map. It unlocks a hidden interior room inside the Communication Tower, located in the northeastern part of the map near Pilgrim’s Peak.

Among Blue Gate keys, this is one of the most consistently valuable options and often ranks near the top in practical use.

Before anything else:

• Always put the key in your Safe Pocket

• The locked door has red indicator lights

• Close the door after entering if you don’t want to get pushed

The room is accessed through a concealed door inside the tower and contains a compact but loot-dense interior. Once used, the key is consumed.

How to get the Blue Gate Communication Tower Key

The Blue Gate Communication Tower Key drops randomly during normal gameplay.

It most commonly enters circulation through:

• looting residential buildings

• searchable furniture and interior containers

• backpacks

• PvP looting from other players

Loot quality in ARC Raiders scales heavily with Night Raids. Night Raids guarantee higher overall loot value than daytime runs, making them the optimal time to both find keys and spend them.

Keys appear more frequently in high-loot zones (amber and red areas), and Pilgrim’s Peak itself falls into this category, which is why Communication Tower runs often see both strong loot and higher player traffic during Night Raids.

There is no dedicated farm for this key. It isn’t tied to a fixed route or location and appears through standard looting and PvP over time.

Where the Tower Key is used

The key is used inside the Communication Tower on the Blue Gate map, located near Pilgrim’s Peak in the northeast.

An ideal approach is spawning near Pilgrim’s Peak or rotating there early. The area is known for high loot density, which means you should expect both ARC units and other players.

Once inside the tower, descend using the interior zipline. At the lower level, follow the interior path and keep to the left side to locate the hidden locked door. This door is opened using the Blue Gate Communication Tower Key.

The room itself is fully enclosed, allowing safe looting once inside, but reaching it often involves PvP pressure due to the location.

What it unlocks

The Communication Tower room is a large interior that performs well because it concentrates many containers into a single enclosed space.

Based on in-game usage, it can include:

• weapon cases

• breachable containers

• searchable cabinets and storage

• crafting materials

• consumables and utility items

• grenades, including epic variants

• weapons, such as Renegade SMGs

Loot outcomes vary from run to run. While high-tier items are not guaranteed, the container density makes this room consistently valuable.

Once all containers are looted, the interaction is complete.

Final Thoughts & Ranking

The Blue Gate Communication Tower Key is a good key that often justifies planning a run around it, especially during Night Raids.

Its value comes from:

• enclosed, protected loot space

• strong container density

• consistent payout over time

Tier Placement

In our ARC Raiders key ranking, the Blue Gate Communication Tower Key is placed in Tier A. Tier A keys offer high loot volume and strong consistency, often justifying dedicated routing, without defining an entire raid the way Tier S keys do.

Communication Tower Key, however, still stands out as one of the strongest keys on Blue Gate when used deliberately.
