The Key (New Game Plus)

Starfield guide · Re-infiltrating the Crimson Fleet
← All areas in this guide

During a New Game Plus playthrough, you can choose to skip the main campaign, which allows you to bypass the long undercover setup normally required to access The Key. With knowledge of your past universe, you can quickly align with or dismantle the Crimson Fleet through UC SysDef's accelerated questline. The space station retains its layout as a haven for pirates, hosting black-market vendors and mission boards for high-bounty piracy tasks.

Shops and people

  • Aludra Tane: Buys stolen items and contraband, offers assorted general goods and materials
  • Isra Liskova: Weapons, ammunition, and weapon modifications
  • Zuri Abara: Rare minerals, tech components, and gear
  • Jasmine Durand: Spaceship repairs, ship modifications, and unregistered starship components including shielded cargo holds and scan jammers

Tips

  • If you plan to betray the Crimson Fleet, make sure to buy unique pirate ship modules like Shielded Cargo and Scan Jammers from Jasmine before the final assault, as you will permanently lose access to her services.
  • The Key is one of the best locations to offload stolen goods and contraband immediately upon entering NG+, as vendors here have high credit pools and do not report illegal goods.
