The Ancient Battleground Key is a valuable item in Dragon's Dogma 2 that players can obtain in the area to the north of Checkpoint Rest Town. While many fans will, rightfully, believe that the key is used to open something within the Ancient Battleground, they may still struggle to locate the locked object. For those players that find themselves in that situation, this guide details the precise position of the door that can be unlocked with the Ancient Battleground Key in Dragon's Dogma 2.

The door that is opened with the Ancient Battleground Key is located very near to the room in which Dragon's Dogma 2 players receive the item. For full clarity, that is the room in which Oskar rings the bell, marking the conclusion of the Tolled to Rest quest, and fans who want to use their new key should simply exit the room, go left, and check the first door on their right. This route is shown on the map that is above, and it is expected that this will be enough to allow most readers to reach the relevant door.

Players who are searching for Putrid Gold Teeth in Dragon's Dogma 2 can find details on a great location for farming the material here.

For those players who need a bit more information about reaching the door that is unlocked with the Ancient Battleground Key, the video that is at the top of this guide showcases a path that begins at the entrance to the Ancient Battleground's ruins. Notably, action RPG fans can bypass much of that path by using the gate that is on the right side of the ruin's first room. That is only possible if the gate was unbarred during a previous trip to the Ancient Battlegrounds, though, and players who did not perform that action will need to follow the path in its entirety.

With respect to what players will find in the room beyond the door that is unlocked with the Ancient Battleground Key, it is home to two chests. One of those chests holds 2,200 G and a Ferrystone, which fans can use to fast travel in Dragon's Dogma 2. The other chest awards an Infernal Edge when it is opened, and that weapon can be equipped by Arisen with the Mystic Spearhand vocation.

While it is expected that the vast majority of readers will have already obtained the Ancient Battleground Key, those that have not should set their sights on completing Tolled to Rest. As has already been suggested, that quest in Dragon's Dogma 2 centers around escorting Oskar into the Ancient Battleground's ruins, and it can be initiated by visiting the location that is marked on the preceding map (north of the road that leads to Checkpoint Rest Town).
