MK 11 Kripta's Guide | Introduction: Tokens, Hearts and Soul Fragments
Kripta is a mode that can be accessed immediately from the main menu and in which you can unlock many treasures such as character skins, sketches, various information about the game world, items to customize avatars and Kombat Kard but also, and above all, new brutality and fatality. If you do not feel like unlocking the combo of these moves, jump directly to our guide to Fatality for Mortal Kombat 11 ... All unlockables in the game can be obtained in Kripta, except for some content that can be unlocked by completing the Towers with each character and the story mode.
Tips to move as well as possible in Kripta
In Kripta you will be greeted by Shang Tsung, the evil sorcerer of the series who will set you free to wander around at your own risk. Fortunately in the Kripta of dangers there are few and you can never make a real Game Over although in some situations we are cornered by ghosts and traps. In the Kripta there are different types of Boxes, with different shapes and sizes that can be opened with the 3 coins of the game: the Tokens, the Hearts and the Soul Fragments. Each one opens a different type of box but for some there are blocks that must be overcome with a key object, an object hidden in the Kripta that once collected can be used on several occasions. Let's see all the types of boxes you can find in the Kripta:
- Wooden boxes: they are opened with tokens.
- Beautiful white boxes with inlays: open with tokens.
- Shao Khan 's head crates: You will need Shao Khan's Hammer to destroy the head of them and then hearts to open them.
- Burning crates: You'll need to destroy the burning skull hidden nearby using the Scorpion Harpoon to open the payout hearts for them.
- Green boxes: More than boxes they are old dried monks or strange floating compositions that emit a green glow, to interact with them you will need the Amulet of Ermac and then the Soul Fragments to open them.
- Kronika's Time Spheres: These instances, much more like the spinning blue balls, appear only in certain areas and at certain times. Opening them usually costs 5,000 tokens and contains the rarer items such as Skin and Fatality, as well as an avalanche of consumables.
Unlike the old Mortal Kombat, where the contents of the crates changed from player to player, Mortal Kombat 11 the best reward crates are always at the same coordinates, so the last section of the guide will show you the best crates to open. Finally, we recommend you to play Kripta only after finishing the story mode and some towers so you will have collected a lot of tokens, hearts and souls to spend and please, if you want hearts do as many Fatalities as possible!
MK 11 Kripta Guide | Where to find key items
As we said, moving around Kripta is not easy because some events will occur only at certain times while to reach some areas you will need to be in possession of key items hidden in the many rooms of Kripta. In addition, not all boxes will be immediately accessible and to open them you will need other objects that are not easy to find. Our complete Kripta guide will show you Mortal Kombat 11 , step by step, what to do to find key items, unlock all areas and doors and collect the best items and treasures. We will mark any warnings or special actions in bold.
IMPORTANT: If you want to restore the contents of the boxes that can be opened with the tokens, you can use Kronika's Time Room which, using the collected Time Spheres, reassigns the contents of the boxes randomly. The boxes that can be opened with the heart or soul are fixed and never change!
Complete solution for Mortal Kombat 11's Kripta and key items
We have prepared this complete map of the Kripta of Mortal Kombat 11 , with all the areas to unlock, the objects to take and all other information to move better thanks to the indications below.
The Kripta starts in an area called the Palace Entrance. Apparently it is small, but you only have to open one of the two initial chests to open the door to the next area.
Left Coffin: 9502,394 - Free - 100 Hearts, 50,000 Tokens (Opens the door in front of you)
Correct Case: 9526,-71 - Free - 100 Hearts, 50,000 Tokens (Open the door in front of you).
In this larger area you will find, on the pedestal at the bottom, Shao Khan 's Hammer which is used to destroy fragile walls, vases and other objects. This will allow you to reach new areas and collect tokens from the destroyed objects. Use the hammer on the ruined door to reach the large area called The Courtyard and head immediately to the left. At the bottom, next to Kronika's device, you will find a fragile wall that can be broken with the hammer. In this side area of the Courtyard there will be a large Gong in the center that once played will open the door to the next area and also allow you to get the Adesso Basta goal trophy. Return to the main area and continue to La Forgia.
From this area, turn right and go over the wooden bridge in the Mountain Pass area. You will find yourself back in another part of the Courtyard, when you reach the tree turn right to enter the Warrior' s Reliquary where you will see a meteorite falling in front of you. Break it with the hammer to get the Gem of the Living. With this you can unlock the Balance Gate located in the Courtyard, in the same side area where you played the Gong before. The door is to the left of the Gong and once opened will earn you 5,000 tokens. If you wish, before returning to the Gong area, you can stop at the large golden statue called The Reliquary and donate tokens for rewards. If you donate 50,000, you will get the Gold Swimming Target Trophy and the key item "Amulet of Kronika".
Now return to the Gong and open the indicated door to access the Gardens. Continue until you reach an area called the Underground. Here pull the lever in the middle of the room to raise the correct bars and find Motaro' s Broken Horn on a small pedestal. Now continue into the Underground and pull the next lever to get a reward in tokens and souls and you will find yourself in the entrance area of the Palace. Now return to the Warrior's Reliquary and insert the Horn into the large door at the back. This will open the door to Goro's lair and you will get another 5000 tokens. Continue until you find a lever that activates an elevator that takes you to the labyrinth of the Lair. In this large area you can unlock several areas by simply pulling the chains, each time you unlock one you will get at least 1000 Tokens and several Soul Fragments. For the time being, keep going straight until you reach the body of the great Goro sitting on his throne. At this point turn right and when you reach the bars do not open them but enter the tunnel on the left. At the end of this area you should find yourself in the Armory where on the end wall you will find the Scorpion Harpoon. This item is used to destroy or pull distant objects and can be used automatically in some areas by pressing the corresponding button.
You will now be locked inside the Armory and will have to immediately test the Harpoon by approaching the door to reopen it with it. Even actions like this will provide you with at least 1000 tokens and other soul fragments. Also, there are some flaming coffins that cannot be opened until you destroy the nearby Flaming Skull with the Harpoon. Finally you can also use the Harpoon to pull the corpses hanging from the ceiling towards you, thus obtaining a Heart for each corpse.
Go back to Goro's body and this time open those bars you didn't open before. Go through Goro's Treasure Room and go beyond the prisons. You will reach a place called Kenshi's Last Battle where you can retrieve Kenshi Takahashi's blindfold from the fallen warrior's body. This key item allows you to enter the spiritual realm by consuming a few soul fragments during use. In this realm you can see things you wouldn't normally see. In fact, by using the blindfold and looking at the wall to the left of the entrance, you will notice a fragile wall that you can break through with the hammer to get out of Kenshi's cell. However, be careful to use the blindfold in the areas where you hear the roars, there are creatures in the spirit realm that could kill you.
Return to Goro's body on the throne and this time go left. Open the gate and go down to Goro's Dining Room. Go up the stairs to the right of the room to the top and before you climb the last staircase to find yourself behind the entrance turn to the room on the left to find the elevator lever. Go up the stairs and continue in the Upper Cavern to the outside to find yourself in a completely new area called Fossa Inferiore. Here you will see a corpse falling from the sky, pierced by a spike, examine it to obtain the Amulet of Ermac's Souls. This also works like the Scorpion's Harpoon and can only be used at certain points in the Kripta to lift destroyed objects or interact with the souls of the dead (any green "box"). Use it now to lift the debris and return to Goro's lair.
At this point you have found all the objects needed to open the different boxes in the Kripta, all you have to do now is open them to collect the rich treasures it contains. But if you want to know more about the secondary areas of the Kripta, read the next chapter of our guide.
Complete solution for the Kripta of Mortal Kombat 11 : Unlock all the secondary areas.
From the lower pit, go back to the dining room and go right until you find, always on the right, a grate to open. You will find yourself in another area called Prisons and you will have to use the blindfold to see a fragile wall right in front of you (be careful because there is a wraith in this area). Break the wall with the hammer, remove the blindfold and continue to the elevator. From here you can reach a Secret Courtyard area with several interesting coffins.
Now you will have to return to the Warrior's Reliquary and as soon as you leave Goro's Lair go down the stairs immediately to the right. After a few steps you will find on the right another large Gong to play with the hammer. Use it to get 25,000 tokens and open the big door that connects the Central Courtyard to the Reliquary. Now keep going down to the right and you will see a coffin closed by bars in a ruined mausoleum. Look at the 4 columns around the mausoleum and you will see that one of them still has a chain intact, pull it to light the torch at the top. For the other three just use the blindfold and you can enter the spirit realm where the chains are still intact. Pull them to access this box. Further on there is an area called The Sacrifice, but we'll come back to that later.
Now go back to the entrance of Goro's Lair and go to the alley on the left, the one behind the brazier. Use the blindfold here as well to uncover a fragile wall to break through with the Hammer and reach this new area called The Dojo where you can use the lever to lower the bars and make it accessible from the other side. Exit this newly lowered grate and use the blindfold again to see another fragile wall immediately in front of you. Break through it to access another small area called the Courtyard Cave. At the bottom of this area pull the chain to make it accessible from the courtyard and get tokens and soul fragments.
Return once more to the Warrior's Reliquary and exit at the end to find yourself in an area of the Courtyard with the crooked tree on the right and the Reliquary statue on the left. Pass the archway immediately in front of you and go down the stairs to find yourself in an area called the Lower Courtyard. Here you will find 3 levers in front of what looks like a riddle with the broken Mortal Kombat symbol to be rebuilt. Mentally number the levers from 1 to 3 starting from the left and pull them in this order: 1-3-2-3-2-2-2-2-2-2. If all went well the symbol will line up and fill with flames opening the upper right grid. Now go down into the newly opened Courtyard Cavern until you reach the area called Forest Bridge. Here you will need to use Scorpion's harpoon to access the hidden treasures on the other side.
Go back to the beginning, right at the altar where you took the hammer and break through the left wall to access a new area called Dead Forest. Reach the end of this area to find three levers. You will have to pull them until you put the bodies back together on the central rotating column by playing a lot with the left and central levers. Once the robot has been reassembled, you will open the grid with the box with the bust of Shao Khan on the left. Once the man with the horned helmet is assembled, you will open the other grid on the left and once the skeleton is assembled, well.... there will be a fiery sight!
After the Forge you can use 2000 soul fragments and Ermac's amulet to repair the bridge, but on the other side you will only find one more coffin. At this point you will have unlocked all the unlockable areas but there are still hidden secrets in the Kripta that require you to amass immense fortunes in tokens, soul fragments and hearts. The only way to proceed at this point is to open the crates, especially the more expensive ones, in the hope that the game will randomly have you find the items you need to continue, because unfortunately there is no other way to get them. One of these is the blue amulet that can be slipped on the pedestal of Raiden's statue destroyed by the first meteorite that got Raiden's Stick, this can be used to open a secret area of Goro's Lair. This area can be reached from the bottom left door in Goro's Dining Room which can be opened first with a bone key.
The bone key is another one of these randomly found items in the crates and you will need it to open the doors with the bars and a spherical shape in the middle. Unfortunately, once you use it you won't have it anymore, so you'll have to find several to open everything.
Solution to MK 11's Kripta: How to open the door in Goro's lair
Inside the lair (at coordinates 3542, -6176) there is a door that requires you to open three objects: the heart of the one being, the mind of the one being and the soul of the one being. These objects can only be obtained in tower mode by playing Classic Towers or Time Towers. You must perform in these modes 10 Fatality, 10 Brutality and 10 Gratitude. The fastest way to do this is to NEVER stop during the second round (so you can safely perform a Brutality) then in FINISH HIM/HER press.
PS4: + L2 for 3 times or Xbox One: + LT for 3 times to spare your opponent. You will be given back some life, at this time press o to perform a Brutality. This way you can perform a Butality and a Grace in the same round and do it much earlier. Once you get all the parts of the unique used in the Kripta to open the door and reach, after a few hot jets, a box of 80,000 Tokens. Inside you will find the key item Heart of Fire. At this point, exit Goro's lair and go to the area called The Sacrifice and pull the lever. You will lower the cage holding the statue in front of you. Use the heart on the cage and then pull the lever again to raise it. Now use the Scorpion harpoon to hit the cage with the heart and set fire to the corpses underneath. This will open both the right and left coffin (visible only with Kenshi's blindfold).
Solution to Kripta of MK 11: Where to find Kollector
Also in Goro's Lair there is an area where you can see Kollector' s head drawn on the map. Here you can bargain with this character and get some items that you would otherwise have to find randomly. However, to make the Collector appear, you must first find the Collector's coins, always randomly in the damn boxes, and use them inside the place marked on the map to make him appear. Randomly you will also find key items that belong to Mortal Kombat characters. However, these items only serve to bargain with Kollector and get valuable rewards.
MK 11 Kripta Guide: How to make heads pop off in Kripta
In the Warrior's Reliquary you will surely have noticed, on the right wall, that there are a series of shovels on which you can stick heads. To get them you will have to unlock the towers in tower mode with the keys you find in the coffins of Kripta. In these towers you will have to perform a brutality 50 times against the same character to get his head to impale him on the Kripta. In some rare cases you can also get a head by finishing the Time Towers, but these percentages are really low. If you impale the head, you get the skull skewer goal trophy.

Each head will also give you rewards specific to that character, and once you've impaled at least 10 heads, you can access the final secret area of the krypta, the Shang Tsung Mortal Kombat 11 Throne Room . In this room there will be particularly expensive chests, over 25,000 coins and more, using Kenshi's blindfold on the statue in the corner, you will discover that it can be destroyed getting new rewards and intros for a specific character.
