Keepsakes are handy tools to add to your kit in Hades 2. They offer unique benefits to you during a run, from giving you an extra life to making it easier to unlock particular boons from your favorite gods and goddesses.
There are multiple Keepsakes for you to unlock in Hades 2, and they can be challenging to track down. Not only do you have to go out of your way for them, but knowing how to get them can be tricky, especially if you don’t know who you can talk with. Having the right Keepsake with you might be enough strength for you to overtake Chronos.
How to get Keepsakes in Hades 2
You can get a Keepsake by interacting with a god or goddess in Hades 2 and providing them with Nectar. It’s a rare resource you can unlock by progressing through the main story and the Kinship Fortune incantation. You should unlock this shortly after you get the Wretched Broker.
Nectar can be found in multiple ways in Hades 2. You can find it by clearing encounters in any area or trading with the Wretched Broker, who accepts Bones as a valid form of payment. Whenever you complete a run, speak with the Wretched Broker to see what he has for sale and if you have enough for another source of Nectar.
