How to Unlock Relics in Peglin

Updated 20 Oct 2026 Source Synthesized from published Peglin guides; rewritten in original wording on 20 October 2026 By

Relics unlock through progression and specific in-run actions. Some are worth targeting; most you will meet naturally.

Natural unlocks

Plenty of relics appear once you reach certain fights or difficulties. Playing normally unlocks a lot.

Targeted unlocks

A few relics need a specific condition met. These are worth a deliberate run once you know what they do.

Is a wider relic pool good?

More relics in the pool raises the chance a strong one appears, though it also means more offers you will skip.

Frequently asked questions

Do relic unlocks persist?

Yes. Once unlocked, a relic can appear in later runs.

Which unlock should I chase first?

Whichever supports the orb family you already play. Check the [relic database](/peglin/relics-database/) for effects.

Do higher Cruciball levels unlock more?

Some relics only appear at higher difficulty, so pushing Cruciball does widen the pool.
