The Blue Gate located in ARC Raiders consists of an intricate system of underground tunnels in Rust Belt Ridge. The narrow corridors eliminate open places for combat and increase the tactical portion of gameplay requiring precision, timing, and positioning. From resource-heavy rooms to escape shafts vertically, every option has a risk and reward opportunity. This article covers all Blue Gate tunnel locations that we know about and how to access those entries.
Map Setting & Why it Matters
Blue Gate resides in Rust Belt Ridge and creates a different pacing compared to exotic maps. The underground tunnels provide treatment to quick firefights where ambushes and fighting occur regularly. Limited movement or options means players that are vertically thinking and are aware of amenities and plan for return use schematic and typically perform better.
Blue Gate Tunnel Entry Points
Listed below are the four entry points of the tunnel:
Core Network (the main passages)
This is the main tunnel web that connects the subterranean portions. It’s accessible to any Raider and is normally the most heated area of battle because of the close-off alleys.
Communication Tower route
Needs the Communication Tower Key. Most useful for tunnel-only runs — if you carry both this key and the Confiscation Room key, you can clean out more loot-filled areas on one run.
Vertical shafts
Shafts serve as connections between the tunnels and the surface. Employ them to surprise opponents, change locations swiftly, or execute a quick extraction after loot picking.
Confiscation Room (high-value target)
This room, which is the primary objective for tunnels-based raids, is locked behind the Blue Gate Confiscation Room Key. Despite its value, which is a major drawback, it attracts a lot of attention — so map out your exit, preferably through a vertical shaft.
Tactical Checklist
- Do plan an extraction path before pushing the Confiscation Room.
- Do take advantage of vertical shafts for surprise plays or retreats.
- Don’t treat tunnels like open fields — movement, sound, and corners matter more here.
- Don’t enter the Communication Tower route without its key if you expect to loot efficiently.
