Where to Find The Golden Key in Cat Quest 2

Cat Quest 2 is an action RPG by The Gentlebros set in a fantasy world of cats and dogs. The world can be explored solo or with a friend, and players can defeat quirky monsters and collect powerful items. 

The Golden Key can be used to unlock chests throughout the world. These chests contain different items, armor, and tools. Players will need to go on a bit of a scavenger hunt to obtain it.

How to Get the Golden Key in Cat Quest 2

The Golden Key can be earned by defeating three mimic Golden Chests in the Hidden Cave, which can only be accessed by defeating the Gentlebros in the “This is It!” side quest on Founder’s Island II. To reach the island, the player will need to have the ability to walk on water. The island is in the southeast corner of the map. 

There are three silly side quests preceding the “This Is It!” side quest. Based upon the developers of the game, the Gentlebros will enjoy messing with the music, threatening the player’s save file, and conjuring NPCs. After a show of strength and power, players can battle the Gentlebros by going through a portal they conjure. Make sure to level up to a high level before starting this battle. All four of the Gentlebros have a level of 99, so aim for one within a few levels. 

The Gentlebros are fierce opponents, so focus on ranged attacks instead of melee attacks. Try to slow and wear them down over time. If they are defeated, they reward the player with gold and experience points.

When the Gentlebros are defeated, the player will be rewarded with a hidden key and shown the location of the Hidden Cave, “The Gentle Suit”, and a trophy titled “Furriend of the People III”. The Gentle Suit is level 25 and lowers the cost of magic spells. In between the four of them is a chest that must be unlocked with the golden key.

The Hidden Cave is located in Felingard, and has a level 99 requirement. It is located in the mountainous area to the east of the Catnip Farm and west of King Lionardo’s Ruins. The chests will be difficult opponents but will drop coins and give the player easy access to the Golden Key when defeated. They are level 99 and only have one attack, but they can kill with a single blow. Grab the Golden Key when the chests are defeated, and now all of the Golden Chests on the map in Cat Quest 2 can be opened.

If players return to the first room of the Hidden Cave, they can unlock the golden chest to retrieve The Architect, a magical staff that increases attack power but lowers the cost of spells. The chest on the Founder’s Island II contains the Gentle Monocle, which also increases health and magic attack power and decreases the mana cost of spells. 

There are 15 Golden Chests in Felingard and seven Golden Chests in Lupus’s Empire, with six of them being Legendary Chests that will spawn one of nine legendary items, all with an equal chance of spawning. The others have predetermined weapons or suits that are available to the player. 

Cat Quest 2 is available on Apple Arcade, Steam, Switch, PlayStation 4, Xbox One and GOG.
