On the surface, Squad Busters is an incredibly simple game. However, there's more than meets the eye, and if there's one thing you need to understand, it's how the Squad Busters keys work.
As you progress past the beginning stages of Squad Busters, particularly when you reach the level 10 stage, you'll come across the Battle Bag - a feature that contains items you can use during battles. Here you'll find a variety of items, such as reroll tokens, as well as keys. To be more specific, fusion keys, epic keys, and your plain ol, generalized keys.
With this guide, we'll show you how to get all of the variety of keys offered in Squad Busters. Then, after hunting for ways to get keys, you should be on the lookout for the best characters in our Squad Busters tier list and the current Squad Busters meta. Pair this knowledge with keys, and your enemies will have a hard time taking you down.
Squad Busters Keys - How To Get Keys
There are three different keys available in Squad Busters. In this section, we'll discuss the generalized keys that you can find and use via your in-game Battle Bag.
Keys allow players to open a free chest in battle. This means that instead of having to earn up to 15 coins to open a chest, you'll be able to do so for free for a limited amount of time.
However, once you use the keys, you cannot use them again for 60 seconds.
Like most resources in Squad Busters, Keys are limited. So how do you get more of them? The answer is simple: gold coins. The more coins you have, the more you can spend on keys.
Purchasing a Key costs 1500 gold coins.

+ 2Squad Busters Keys - How To Get Epic Keys
Epic Keys allow players to open a free chest in battle, which gives them the use of an Epic character. These characters are highly sought after due to their higher hit points and overall damage, so the use of an Epic Key to get one as soon as the beginning of the match is a game changer.
However, once you use an Epic Key, you cannot use the Battle Bag for 60 seconds.
To get Epic Keys in Squad Busters, players will need to purchase them via gold coins. Players can earn gold coins by completing daily challenges earned in matches.
Purchasing an Epic Key costs 2400 gold coins.

Fusion keys are wildly different from their more generalized counterparts, but they, too, are kept in your in-game Battle Bag.
Fusion Keys allow players to open a free chest in battle that is guaranteed to give them a fusion character. A fusion character is a Squad Busters hero that has been found 3 times and, as such, has fused together. Fusion characters are very important, as they can make or break a battle depending on how many enemy squads are still left in-game.
However, once you use Fusion Key, the Battle Bag is unable to be used for 120 seconds.
To get Fusion Keys in Squad Busters, players will need to purchase them via gold coins. Players can earn gold coins by completing daily challenges earned in matches.
Purchasing a Fusion Key costs 4500 gold coins.
