Arena Breakout Infinite Lounge 1 Key Location and Loot Run
Where the Building C Lounge 1 key room sits on Northridge, which floor the door is on, and how to clear it without losing the key.
The Building C Lounge 1 Key opens the locked lounge on the third floor of Hotel Building C on the Northridge map. Inside you will find military computers and a safe, which makes it one of the stronger key rooms on that map. Here is what the key opens and how to run the room without losing it.
What the Building C Lounge 1 Key opens
The name is literal. The key fits the Lounge 1 door in Hotel Building C and nothing else. The lounge sits on the third floor of the hotel, and it counts as a deep room. You will not reach it on a quick spawn-to-extract run, so plan the trip before you queue. The key locations guide maps every key room to its floor and contents.
Military computers and a safe are the usual draw, and that loot is why the key holds its price on the market. If you run Northridge with a squad, the room earns the detour. Solo players should treat it as a maybe, since the walk in is long and the walk out is longer.
Where to get the key
Keys drop as world loot. Scavengers and containers anywhere on the map can hold one, so any raid can pay out. The other route is the market, where players list spare keys. Prices move with demand, so compare listings before you buy.
Keys break — check the remaining uses
Every key has limited durability, and each open burns uses. Higher difficulty tiers burn them faster. A key that lasts a month on Normal can be gone in a week of Forbidden runs. Check the remaining uses before you buy, because a half-dead key priced like a fresh one is a bad trade.
How to run the lounge safely
Hit the room early, before other squads reach the third floor. Clear the hallway before you unlock the door. Loot fast and leave. Lingering in a known key room invites the next squad through the same door.
If you die, loose keys go with you. Keep the key in your secure container until the door is in front of you. The secure container guide explains how the slot works.
When to sell instead
If you rarely run Northridge, the key is Koen sitting in your stash. Sell it and buy it back when you actually plan the run. Spares turn into cash fastest when demand is high. If you are weighing a purchase rather than planning a route, the buy-or-skip breakdown prices the room against its durability.
