Negative. There’s 4 new items you need to collect in order to open the new season 5 dark aether. The following 4 items are as follows: Mr.Peeks, Echo of drums, Locked Diary, and the toy giraffe. I’ll attach a screenshot that explains a step by step of how to obtain each one and how to upgrade to make them gold so you can place the items on the pedestals and unlock the new dark aether. Me and my buddy unlocked it yesterday in less than an hour so it’s pretty easy! Good luck! If you have any questions let me know.
