My Anime Mine Soulforge
Checked 2026-10-17
Soulforge matters because it is the lock on zone 12. The Update 5 notes call it out by name and by number.

The official page names Soulforge as zone 11 and requires all of its research before The Hallowkeep opens. It also extends Scaled Lucky Block copies to Soulforge characters. I rechecked that page on 17 October 2026. It does not establish a crafting system, recipes or an exotic drop table; the zone name is not evidence of those mechanics.
Confirmed in the 10 October notes
- Soulforge is zone 11.
- Every Soulforge research must be done before zone 12, The Hallowkeep, can open.
- Scaled Lucky Block characters can copy characters from the Soulforge zone.
- Hallowkeep has its own colossus. Soulforge is the zone you finish first, not a shortcut around that colossus.
Reach zone 11, then prepare the next gate
- For the gates before Soulforge, check each current research board. The third-party progression guide records 100% research followed by the live gate fee.
- On reaching zone 11, use its own board. Research completed in an earlier zone does not fill this one, according to the recorded research guide.
- Finish every Soulforge research node. This is the specific Hallowkeep requirement confirmed by the developer, not an Index-completion rule.
- If the gate still asks for cash, use the amount displayed there. No current Soulforge gate fee is established by the sources here.
- After entering The Hallowkeep, unlock its Colossus I for the Summoning Shrine and Infinity Trial. Reaching Soulforge alone does not open the relocated Shrine.
Soulforge characters and exotic searches
Scaled Lucky Block characters can copy Soulforge characters after Update 5. That does not identify a full zone drop pool or a copying probability. Neither the official notes nor the cited play records provide a sourced Soulforge exotic list, so there are no invented names or odds here.
Frequently asked questions
How do I reach Soulforge?
Progress through the earlier gates to zone 11. The recorded general loop is current-zone research to 100%, then the displayed gate fee; a complete numbered route and costs are not available.
Is the SOULFORGE code the same thing?
No. It is a separate promo string. Check the codes page for its reward and current reported status, not this zone guide.
