Have you come across that mysterious door in the Mortal Kombat 11 Krypt marked “Requires Dragon Amulet” and wondered how to open it? Turns out, it’s not too complicated — as long as you follow the right steps. This guide breaks down everything you need to do step-by-step to access and unlock the Dragon Amulet door, including where to find each required item and what to expect afterward.

Step 1: Get the Amulet of Earthrealm’s Protector

Before diving into the Krypt itself, you’ll need to complete something outside of it: finish the Towers of Time tutorial. Once you do, you’ll be rewarded with the Amulet of Earthrealm’s Protector — an essential item for this quest.

---

Step 2: Visit the Warrior Shrine

Once you have the Earthrealm amulet, go to the Warrior Shrine. You’ll find a statue of Raiden that has been destroyed by a meteorite. Insert the Amulet of Earthrealm’s Protector here.

Doing this gives you an important item: Thunder God’s Shattered Staff. This item will be used to unlock a key door later in the process.

Step 3: Head to Goro’s Dining Hall

Now it’s time to head into Goro’s Lair, specifically to Goro’s Dining Hall. Stick to the wall and look for a side passageway. You’ll need a Skeleton Key to proceed.

Skeleton Keys are found randomly inside chests throughout the Krypt. There’s no fixed location, so just keep unlocking chests until you obtain one. Once you’ve got it, use the key to unlock the passageway.

---

Step 4: Survive the Passage & Use the Shattered Staff

Pass through the corridor. Don’t worry too much about dying — if you get killed, you’ll just respawn at the end of it. Stay to the left and you’ll reach a door that requires the Thunder God’s Shattered Staff to open.

Use the staff to gain access to Goro’s Fortress.

Step 5: Find the Dragon Amulet

Once inside Goro’s Fortress, continue to hug the left wall and avoid the traps. Eventually, you’ll reach a special chest. This one stands out — it costs 20,000 Koins to open.

High-price chests in the Krypt typically contain key items, and this one is no exception. Inside you’ll find the Dragon Amulet Keystone.

---

Step 6: Return to the Dragon Door

Now that you have the Dragon Amulet, return to the Dragon Door you originally found. Use the amulet to unlock it. The rewards inside aren’t extravagant (about 5,000 coins), and the unlocked area leads to a place you may have already visited.

---

Bonus: The Mysterious Second Puzzle

After unlocking the Dragon Door, you’ll encounter a second puzzle that’s far more cryptic. As of the time of this guide’s creation, no one knows how to solve it fully. It involves three key items — two of which can be obtained, while the last remains unsolved.

Stay tuned for updates on that — once the solution is discovered, it will be covered in a separate guide.
