Risk of Rain 2 Hallowed items convert Hex curses into late-run relics. Dev diaries name Hex of Strife, Hex of Blindness, Infernal Mark, and Dream Crucible.

Risk of Rain 2 Hallowed items are the late-run payoff of the unreleased Hallowed Concepts pack. Dev Diary #2 says you take Hexes first — items whose only job is to make the run harder, with zero upside — then find a way in the run to convert them into Hallowed relics. The exact convert step is still secret in that diary.

This is not Alloyed Collective loot and not the base 110+ pool. Alloyed Collective already shipped in Nov 2025. These types are next-generation and unreleased.

Hexes: downside only

The diary starts with 10 Hexes. Named examples:

  • Hex of Strife: puts a mountain-shrine effect on the teleporter with no extra reward, then a harder boss.
  • Hex of Blindness: limits vision to 96 meters and blacks out the rest of the stage.

Collected notes describe Hex holders shaped like clasped hands that drop a random Hex, plus unnamed Hex shapes on pedestals. English names beyond the two diary examples stay unverified.

Hallowed relics and Curio

The same diary teases 11 Hallowed items as among the most unique and powerful in the game. Named showcases:

  • Infernal Mark: attacks can apply a soul brand. Branded monsters pull nearby aggro and enable friendly fire, so enemies work for you.
  • Dream Crucible: once per stage, when another item goes on cooldown or is spent, the Crucible can consume itself. The diary says that can even chain with N'tormat pages so you might use it more than once per stage.

A third type, Curio, is described in collected notes as a new slot (not a normal Equipment slot) that starts with one page and can gain more. The N'tormat is the named Curio. Diary #3 pages include Dark Alchemy and a Warp Gate; collected notes also list Fanatic Summons. Counts and full page lists stay unverified.

Collected notes tally about 25 new items (11 Hallowed, 10 Hex, Curio, boss items, an unnamed Lunar Equipment). That is a collected checklist, not an official atlas.

How to read this before launch

Pick up Hexes only if you want the later convert. Do not file Hex of Strife as an Artifact, or Infernal Mark as current friendly-fire. Ethereal trial loot is a different, timed modifier — see the Hallowed trials page.
