I don't know about you, but for me, the Red Zones were the most challenging aspect of Pragmata. Not only did I have to fight my way through waves of annoyingly difficult enemies, but I also had to make sure I found all the pesky Red Gate Keys. Hopefully, my sorrow can benefit you, as I can now say I know where to find every key. In this guide, we'll show you where to find all nine Red Gate Keys in Pragmata.
Pragmata Trophy Guide
Our comprehensive Pragmata trophy and achievement guide provides a complete checklist of all collectibles, secrets, and combat challenges.
Pragmata Red Gate Key Overview
As you make your way through the five levels of Pragmata, you'll encounter special locked Red Gates that block access to risky areas called Red Zones. These high-risk/high-reward combat chambers not only provide Hugh and Diana with some of the game's best upgrade materials, but completing certain Red Zones also unlock sections of Cabin's Stamp Boards back in the Shelter.
There are nine Red Gate Keys in total, which can be collected through two primary methods:
- Collectibles: Some of the Red Gate Keys can be found while exploring each level. These are found inside red briefcases.
- Stamp Board rewards: Several Red Gate Keys can be found on Stamp Boards, and must be unlocked with Pragmata's Cabin Coins.
How to Get 9 Red Gate Keys in Pragmata
Red Gate Key 1 – Mass Production Array – Shopping District:
The first collectible Red Gate Key is located in Pragmata's second level, the Mass Production Array. It can be found inside the level's second sector, the Shopping District.
From the open courtyard, make your way around the central tower. You'll reach a gate with a sign that reads: "Diner - Open 24 Hours." Before you can enter, it will lock, and you'll have to face two Walkers, followed by a single Spider. Once they are dealt with, you can enter.
Look at the counter to the left to find the red briefcase that holds the first Red Gate Key.
Pragmata: All Repair Cartridge Holder Locations (Health Charge)
We've collected the locations of all six Cartridge Holders in Pragmata, which increase Hugh's total health charges.
Red Gate Key 2 – Terra Dome – Eco Modeling Lab:
The second collectible Red Gate Key is found in Pragmata's Terra Dome level. It is found in the level's second sector, the Eco Modeling Lab.
From the location of the second Gen Chip in the Eco Modeling Lab, follow the path from the circular platform up the stairs, then turn left into the large white laboratory building.
At the entrance, look to the right, and you'll see the second Red Gate Key in the red briefcase on a long, L-shaped reception desk.
Red Gate Key 3 – Lunum Mines – Main Excavation Site:
The third collectible Red Gate Key in Pragmata is located in the Lunum Mines level. It can be picked up from the level's fourth sector, Main Excavation Site.
This Red Gate Key is very easy to find. As you make your way through the Lunum Mines, you'll eventually reach a door with an Area 3 sign out front. This leads to the chamber with the Logistics Management escape hatch.
The red briefcase that holds Red Gate Key three is sitting on a desk as soon as you pass through the Area 3 door.
Red Gate Key 4 – Central Port – Research Sector:
The final collectible Red Gate Key is found in Pragmata's Central Port level. It will be located in the Research Sector, the level's second region.
This Red Gate Key is found in the same room as the Research Sector Gate escape hatch. With your back to the hatch, the briefcase is located against the room's far wall, behind the long desk on the right.
All Stamp Board Red Gate Keys in Pragmata:
The remaining five Red Gate Keys can all be unlocked through Cabin's Stamp Club, which becomes available once Cabin is unlocked after defeating the SectorGuard boss in Solar Power Plant.
The Trainee, Associate, and Specialist Stamp Boards all contain a single Red Gate Key. The Director board, which is the final board unlocked during the main game, contains two Red Gate Keys. None of the locked sections of any board contains Red Gate Keys.
Each new board will be unlocked when you defeat an area boss and upgrade the Shelter.
