We've broken down our talk about Ruby Keys in Magic Awakened into a few easy FAQ-style sections.

What are Ruby Keys in Harry Potter Magic Awakened?

Ruby Keys are a unique currency outside of the Silver and Gold Keys you're introduced to early on. They're time-limited and used for events only, so while they're not used as often, they're rarer at the same time.

They're just relatively easier to get when they are available, and can serve as a way to get some powerful cards easily if you play regularly.

After the tutorial, they're used to unlock the Quidditch Tryouts card skin, as well as two copies of the tier list featured Mythic card Ron Weasley. If you're lucky, you might get Avada Kedavra.

Tired of hearing about these Ruby Keys everyone keeps going on about? If you don't know what they are yet, you will soon - just take your head out of your textbooks and carry on with the main quest.

Ruby Keys can be acquired in two ways: Completing Year One story quests, and using Ruby Keys. That's right, Ruby Keys are part of a cycle mechanic, rewarding you with more as you use them up.

To get started, you'll want to press on with the main storyline. Playing through Chapter 2-1 will get you five Ruby Keys with each main mission, for a grand total of 30.

To get more, just use those you already have. Using ten Ruby Keys in the A New Adventure card banner will get you five more. Use 30 in total to get another five. That means 40 Ruby Keys are available for free, getting you very close to the 60 Ruby Key cap on the starting card banner.
