How to Decrypt the Heaven and Earth Door Code in Horizon Forbidden West Burning Shores

Figuring out the 4-digit door code in the Heaven and Earth mission isn’t as straightforward as finding it written on a note. Instead, players will have to decrypt the code by listening to several audio logs in a specific sequence.

Firstly, the flight number of the 2050 mission was HMC-3. As a result, the first digit to the Heaven and Earth door code is 3.

Meanwhile, the second digit is obtained by working out the amount of platinum that was mined in 2054, which is 2 million tons. Thus, the second digit to the door code is 2.

Next, players will be able to figure out the third digit of the door code by changing the year to 2061 and finding out how many miners died during a deadly accident, which is: 8.

Finally, the fourth digit can be gleaned from the audio log from 2056, which is the amount of years it took to strip out all the cobalt from the asteroid: 5 years.
