The Ancient Key appears in the Devil’s Pit index but serves more purpose than just a collectable item. In this Dig It Ancient Key Guide, I tell you how to obtain this item and what it’s used for.
Start digging for treasure on Roblox. For more on the Volkayno update, check out our Dig It Magmatar Guide and our How To Get To The Oasis In Dig It Tour Guide!

Similarly to the Molten Key, you must complete the entire Devil’s Pit index to then unlock the Ancient Key as a diggable item. Without it, you cannot open the Ancient Door leading to The Oasis and purchase the Ancient Shovel.
Detailed Ancient Key Walkthrough
To obtain it, you’ll need to first reach Devil’s Pit by completing the Volkayno Collection, including digging up the mythical rarity Isopod Mount.
With a 100% collection and mount, you’ll have a chance to dig up the lesser Molten Key. This exotic item from the Volkayno index unlocks the elevator that leads to Devil’s Pit.
Similarly to Volkayno, you need to then complete the Devil’s Pit index. Fortunately, there’s no additional mount for this area. However, you will need to complete the Brewton NPC to obtain a Fire Resistance potion to enter the Imp village.
The village is home to the Ancient Door, but without the key, there’s no point in drinking the potion and travelling there since it only lasts 30 minutes. If it expires, you’ll need to complete the quest again to get another to re-enter the village and insert the Ancient Key into the door.
In Short…
So, complete the Devil’s Pit collection first, get the key, drink the potion, and then make haste to the Ancient Door.
Note: Whilst completing the Devil’s Pit collection, I managed to get the Ancient Key whilst still having 1 legendary unfound. So, there is a chance to find the Key before completing the index, but your encounter chances increase after it’s done.
