The Outer Worlds 2: How to enter the Fairfield Armory

The Fairfield Armory is a hidden chamber filled with valuable items in The Outer Worlds 2. You can’t directly access its locked door; you require a key card to unlock it. That said, while finding this key may take a while, there are a few other ways to get inside without it.

There is also a shortcut to reach the room and loot all the items. While the other methods require specific skill levels, this shortcut path lets you access the armory without any extra effort.

Without further ado, here's how to enter the Fairfield Armory in The Outer Worlds 2.

How to enter the Fairfield Armory in Outer Worlds 2

There are several ways to access the Fairfields Armory in The Outer Worlds 2. If you have a high enough level in skills like Lockpicking or Explosives, you can unlock the armory's door without any issue. Head to the building just south of Fairfield, where you will come across the armory door beside the jail cell.

To get inside, you will need to be at least Level 3 in either Explosives or Lockpicking. If you meet these requirements, simply interact with the door to unlock it.

If you don’t have either skill, there’s a shortcut to reach the Fairfield Armory. From the jail entrance, head to the right and follow the path near the Bounty Terminal. You will spot some scaffolding along the jail walls that connects the jail’s roof. Climb up to reach the roof. Once at the top, move straight until you find an opening.
