Key Item

In-Game Description

    Key to the cell below the Grand Cathedral.

    Hunters are held within the underground cell, so that things
    better left unseen, and knowledge better left unknown, will
    decay quietly in the fallow darkness.

  • Underground Cell Key will unlock the majority of the cells in the Underground Cell area towards the end of the Hunter's Nightmare, with the only exception being the Inner Chamber Cell. By opening those cells you'll be able to take on a fearsome Hunter and claim the Church Pick weapon from him, as well as free the tormented, Yamamura the Wanderer.

  • You'll find him locked in a cell immediately to the left of the stairwell connecting the Underground Corpse Pile to the Underground Cells, repeating a prayer out loud while banging his head on the wall. With the Underground Cell Key you can enter Yamamura's cell and release him from his suffering with a swift coup de grace to obtain his equipment and access him as a summoned ally for several boss fights.

Availability

  • Treasure in (Old Hunters DLC): Research Hall; you will need to make your way up to the Rafters of the Research Hall and activate the mechanism there to raise the staircases. Only then will you be able to reach Floor 3 - West Side. From the Research Hall lamp at the bottom, take the hidden path to the right on the second lift you can jump midway. Follow the path to the left, head down and then up the stairs and it will be in a little room at the far side. If you need further assistance to find the key, you can follow the Research Hall Map.
  • Alternatively you can bypass proceeding further into Research Hall and access Underground Cell Key early, by jumping from dark Patient Room 2F on to the platform with the key, as seen in this video.

Notes

  • This Item is part of The Old Hunters DLC.
  • Video: Bloodborne - New DLC Key "Underground Cell Key" Location by tassssssssss.
  • Upon starting New Game+ all of the Key Items (except for Badges, Blood Gem Workshop Tool, Rune Workshop Tool, Short Ritual Root Chalice, Workshop Haze Extractor, Yharnam Stone and Ring of Betrothal) you acquired on your previous playthrough will be stripped away and you'll need to collect them again.
