In Arc Raiders, the Locked Gate event on the Blue Gate map challenges players to find four security codes to access underground tunnels filled with valuable loot. This cooperative event encourages teamwork among raiders to unlock higher-rarity items, including the sought-after Bobcat blueprint. The gate, normally open, becomes a focal point during raids when the event activates.
The Locked Gate event in Arc Raiders transforms the Blue Gate map into a collaborative puzzle for players seeking premium rewards. As described in a recent guide, the event requires raiders in a lobby to locate four security codes scattered across specific points of interest (POIs): Ancient Fort, Pilgrim's Peak, Raider's Refuge, and Reinforced Reception. Players must loot containers at each POI to find the codes, ideally coordinating with others to avoid overlap and speed up the process.
Once collected, the codes are brought to the Gate Control Room at the map's center. There, four terminals await activation; each code fits a specific one, and players can check which are already completed to guide their efforts. With all codes inserted, the lockdown lifts, opening the massive gate at the northeastern tip of the Checkpoint POI—slightly west of the control room.
This location, central to Blue Gate, draws crowds during raids, especially when the event triggers, as the gate is typically open outside of it. Inside the underground tunnels lie above-average loot, boosting chances for blue and purple rarity guns, blueprints, and other high-value items. The Bobcat blueprint stands out as a prime target, spawning anywhere on the map during the event but with elevated odds behind the gate.
Such events add depth to Arc Raiders' extraction shooter gameplay, rewarding exploration and cooperation amid competition. Players are advised to stay near the Checkpoint unless codes are still being sought, ensuring quick access once the gate unlocks.
