It won't be long after players dive into the Krypts in Mortal Kombat 11 before they realize they need a number of Key Items. Finding all of the Krypt key items in Mortal Kombat 11 will take time and patience, so players will want to come prepared. Below you'll find everything you need to know to find all of the Krypt key items
There are several different Key Items to find in Mortal Kombat 11, with each serving a specific (but oftentimes unknown) purpose. Some of them will be easy to spot, while others will require a little digging around. A few of the items will also require different Key Items in order to unlock, such as doors or passageways that can only be opened after collecting gems or amulets. Here are each of the Key Items we've discovered so far.
Players won't be able to miss Shao Kahn's Hammer — it's found right at the entrance of the Krypt, and it's used to smash through doors and walls. Though the first room has several such decrepit areas, players would be wise to look for other locations to break through using the hammer throughout the rest of the Krypt.
The Gem of the Living is used to open the door next to the gong in the Krypt's Courtyard. It can be found by smashing the meteorite that destroys the statue of Raiden in the Warrior Shrine. To find the Warrior Shrine, head through the Courtyard and follow the Mountain Pass around to the right. Continue beyond a small shrine area and a cutscene will trigger, causing the meteorite containing this key Krypt item to crash through Raiden's statue, landing on the ground before the massive doors to Goro's Lair. Make your way back to the area where you hit the gong to open the wooden gates in the Courtyard and use the Gem of the Living to open the doorway to the Gardens.
The Cracked Horn of the Motaro is used to open the door to Goro's Lair. To find the next item on our list of Krypt Key Items, you're going to want to obtain the Gem of the Living and then open the way through the Gardens. Continue across the bridge and into the rooms to the left to enter the Vault. Here you can pull a lever, which will give you access to the Cracked Horn of Motaro.
Requirement: Use the Gem of the Living to open the locked Courtyard door in order to access the Vaults.
The Spear of Hanzo Hasahi can be found within the Armory in Goro's Lair. From the entrance to Goro's Lair, make your way through Goro's Great Hall and into Goro's Throne Room. From here, take the tunnel immediately to the right of the throne and follow it back to the Armory. Look for the pillar that appears to have streak of fire running through it — it's the flaming spear itself.
Requirement: Must open Goro's Lair using the Cracked Horn of Motaro.
Ermac's Amulet is used to open blocked passageways as well as Soul Vaults. It can be found in the Lower Pit, beneath the broken bridge near the Mountain Pass. To find this area you will need to make your way through Goro's Lair and use the second elevator in the area to reach the Lower Pit. This elevator is found beyond Goro's Dining Hall, the path to the left in Goro's Throne Room. Here you'll be able to pick up Ermac's Amulet, which will allow you to "rewind time" to repair broken paths and remove blockades of rocks that hinder your progression.
Rather ironically, Kenshi's Blindfold allows players to spot invisible walls and chests hidden throughout the Krypt. It can be found in the area known as the Jails, which can be accessed by following the right tunnel path from Goro's Throne Room. After obtaining the Cracked Horn of Motaro, head down into Goro's Lair and continue through to Goro's Throne Room. From here, take the path that's located on the furthest right side of the room. This will lead you through Goro's Treasure Chamber and into the Jails. Continue past the pools of blood to find Kenshi's Last Stand, where you can obtain one of many of the key Krypt items in Mortal Kombat 11.
The Heart of Blaze is required to complete the puzzle known as The Sacrifice. It can be acquired by opening the 80k Koins chest within the locked door in Goro's Lair, itself opened by using the three One Being gems.
Requirements: Heart of the One Being, Mind of the One Being, Soul of the One Being
The Heart of the One Being gem is one of three gems needed to open the locked door on the right-hand side of Goro's Lair. It can be unlocked by pulling off 10 Mercies in any Tower mode.

The Soul of the One Being gem is one of three gems required to open the locked door to the right of Goro's Lair. It can be acuired by pulling off 10 Brutalities in any Tower mode.

Reptile's Claw is found within the Torture Halls area of Goro's Lair. Use Kenshi's Blindfold to spot a destructible wall in the Torture Halls, then look for the little Reptile.
Requirement: Kenshi Blindfold.
The Dragon Amulet opens the locked door found on the Mountain Passage, not far beyond the Dragon Puzzle area in the Courtyard. It's found inside a chest past the lava-laden room with the swinging traps.
The Thunder God's Shattered Staff is used to open the locked door to the Kytinn Hive room, itself in the Torture Halls of Goro's Lair. It can be found by interacting with the crushed Raiden statue in the Courtyard with the Amulet of Earthrealm's Protector in the inventory.
Requirement: Amulet of Earthrealm's Protector
