How Relics work

The May 2026 development update states that Relics are found in dungeons and activated aboard the train, where they provide temporary buffs. This connects dungeon expeditions to short-term advantages during the wider journey.

  • Explore dungeons
  • Recover a Relic
  • Activate it on the train
  • Receive a temporary buff

Development context

Relics were reported as a newest addition in the May 13, 2026 Spring Development Update, after the April closed playtest. The update connects them to the overhauled modular dungeons and to cross-level pilgrimage progression, but does not say whether Relics themselves persist when a crew exits a level.
