For the longest time, it seemed like the red door in the labyrinth was just a red herring (no pun intended) for Remnant 2. After a whole lot of searching by the community, though, it turns out there is something behind that Red Corrupted Door, something immensely valuable, in fact. Let's learn how to unlock it to find a new extra archetype.
What do players need to open the Corrupted Door in Remnant 2?
Remnant 2 players who came across this door and had nothing happen likely experienced this because they weren't in a corrupted state. A player can only get the door open if they are, themselves, corrupted. Therefore, players are going to need a specific build before they even step foot in the labyrinth.

How to find the Corrupted Door in Remnant 2
Although the portals inside the Labyrinth are basically random, players can look for a specific room that will have the Corrupted Door inside. If players look inside the portal and see a room that looks like there's no landing beneath (just thin air), that's where the Corrupted Door is.
Once inside, there should be two enemies to defeat. Afterwards, progress a little further and turn right; the Corrupted Door should be right there. I would definitely just take out these enemies instead of leaving them to be annoying. Getting inside will earn players the Archon archetype, which offers a nice playstyle for magic users.
