How to Unlock All Relics and Permanent Map Artifacts in Vampire Survivors
Mastering permanent relic unlocks in Vampire Survivors establishes the baseline for every successful survival run, granting stage pause maps, custom audio controls, Limit Break weapon scaling, and spellcasting secrets. Whether you need to locate initial navigation tools or decode secret character conditions outlined in our how to unlock all secret characters walkthrough, this complete directory details all 61 permanent artifacts.
Foundational Map and Interface Relics
Beginning survivors should prioritize early utility relics that expand in-game awareness and menu options. Navigating to the far western side of 
Inlaid Library rewards the Grim Grimoire, which records weapon evolutions and unions directly in your pause screen. Upon hitting level 40 in Inlaid Library, you gain access to 
Dairy Plant, where green floor indicators guide you to both Ars Gouda (which logs defeated monsters in the main menu) and the Milky Way Map. The Milky Way Map permanently reveals item spawns, pickups, and chest drops across every map. Progressing further into Dairy Plant to level 16 opens 
Gallo Tower, housing Sorceress' Tears to accelerate game speed, while completing hyper requirements across two normal maps grants 
Green Acres and its stage soundtrack changer, the Magic Banger. Review detailed wave layouts in our Dairy Plant stage guide.
Unlocking Secrets, Spells, and the Yellow Sign
Intermediate progression transitions toward uncovering hidden passives and arcane secrets. Surviving the lunar event in 
Moongolow transports your character to Holy Forbidden, where navigating to the eastern chamber secures the Yellow Sign. The Yellow Sign reveals hidden floor items including 
Metaglio Left, 
Metaglio Right, 
Silver Ring, and 
Gold Ring across all stages, and identifies whether chests can evolve weapons. Venturing into 
The Bone Zone brings you face to face with the giant rolling bone sphere; defeating this boss drops the Forbidden Scrolls of Morbane, enabling the Secrets menu and spell commands. In Moongolow, visiting the merchant with 10000 gold allows purchasing the Glass Vizard, ensuring the merchant appears across all stages, while reaching 50 collection entries grants the Mindbender to alter character appearances and restrict weapon slots.
Endgame Mechanics: Limit Break and Stage Modifiers
Endgame progression introduces transformative rule modifiers. Defeating the final boss in 
Cappella Magna after obtaining the Yellow Sign yields the Great Gospel, permanently adding the Limit Break toggle in stage selection so weapons can level up indefinitely once maxed. Exploring Eudaimonia Machine provides Gracia's Mirror to toggle Inverse Mode and the Seventh Trumpet to activate Endless Mode. Conquering 
Boss Rash minute 7 unlocks the Atlas Gate, enabling base game Adventures. Collecting the Randomazzo in Gallo Tower and descending to the final room of Room 1665 for the Darkasso unlocks card modifications detailed in our all Arcanas and Darkanas guide. Modern expansions introduce specific character morphs and powerups, such as Chaos Malachite at minute 18 in 
Bat Country for 
Mortaccio, Chaos Rosalia in 
Astral Stair for 
Yatta Cavallo, Chaos Lazulia in 
Mazerella for 
Bianca Ramba, Chaos Altemanna in 
Tiny Bridge for 
O'Sole Meeo, Brave Story in 
Space 54, Antidote in 
Whiteout, and Masquerade in 
Westwoods.
