Unknown 9: Awakening - How To Unlock The Locked Door On The Morning Star

The first time you arrive at the massive Morning Star in Unknown 9: Awakening, you'll come across a particular door in the showcase room at the back of the ship. Unlike other closed doors, it offers you the chance to interact with it, but it just says it's locked.

Unknown 9: Awakening Review - Step Into The Mostly Known

Unknown 9: Awakening feels like a loving tribute to the PS3 and 360 days, although it also carries over some of its issues.

If you use your enhanced Peek skill, you can see items highlighted behind the door, and your Shade Bracers even tell you there's a Scribing hiding behind there too. Unfortunately, there's no kicking down the door either this time. It only opens when the time is right – and full of deadly electricity.

How To Get Into The Morning Star's Locked Door

To get into the showcase room's locked door, you'll need to progress in the story until you return to the Morning Star for a third time, after completing all the story objectives at Quinta Matos.

Once you get back, you'll have some cutscenes with the group, and then it'll be time to rewire the four antennae on top of the Morning Star while dodging lightning strikes. Reconfigure all four of them, and you'll be back inside the ship again after a cutscene.

The Double Dodge skill from the Combat skill tree can help with dodging the lightning, as it essentially doubles the distance you cross.

Instead of coming back to the bridge or the landing platform, you'll enter the ship at the very back, putting you behind the door that's been locked up until this point. You can take the second set of stairs down to it, then permanently unlock it from that side.

In this area, you'll also find two new Extractors you might have seen when Peeking from the other side, as well as a Tree of Life Scribing in the control room that Mara goes into.

There's also a small puzzle involving four lights that unlocks several glass cases in the showcase room containing some collectibles: a Diagram, a Sahin Tile, and an Artifact.

The light puzzle can be solved by flipping the light switches in a particular order: the third light, the first light, the second light, then the fourth light.
