It’s not a secret that most regions have some hidden chests, areas, and even Domains in Genshin Impact. The City of Deceased Domain is located underground, making it a bit harder to find than the rest. Additionally, the doors are blocked by some kind of mechanism that requires a bit of puzzle-solving to unlock. The article below will guide Travelers on how to open the City of the Deceased Domain in Genshin Impact.

How To Unlock The City Of The Deceased Domain In Genshin Impact
To unlock the City of the Deceased Domain in Genshin Impact, it’s crucial that players complete a Pyro torch puzzle near the Domain. Upon finding the City of Deceased, the mechanism that activates it is surrounded by a red seal, forbidding players to interact with it.
On closer inspection, the Domain seems to be surrounded by unlit torches. Two can be seen on both sides of the buried Domain; one is behind the sealed mechanism and the second is on the other side.
The remaining two are directly across the Domain. To light them and release the seal blocking the mechanism, switch to any Pyro unit in Genshin Impact and light all four of them. Fortunately, the torches don’t have to be lit in a specific order, so randomly lighting them is fine. Also, using a Pyro Bow user would definitely be beneficial, as Travelers can hit the faraway torches from a distance.
Once all four Pyro torches are activated, the seal that’s blocking the mechanism will be broken. Interacting with the latter will force the City of the Deceased Domain to rise from the ground and reward a Common Chest in Genshin Impact that contains two Primogems, one Dendro Sigil, and some other rewards.
Genshin Impact is now available on Mobile, PC, PS4, and PS5. A Switch version is in development.
