In Hyper Light Drifter, there are many different outfits(cape, sword and sprite) that you can find! Some are hidden behind locked doors, others require certain challenges to be completed. Each cape provides a different effect that changes some attribute of your character. There are currently 10 outfits that can be found that will affect The Drifter.





Red - Starter Cape/No effect
Purple - Energy used for special moves(charged attacks/dashing)
Pink - Energy recharge rate
Orange - Bomb recharge rate
White - Item interaction speed
Blue - Attack delay
Yellow - Movement speed
Green - Health pack regeneration
Purple/Black - Cosmetic: beheading effect on all kills
Fuschia - Ammo recharge rate
Ochre - Health

This cape is found after meeting with your Drifter friend in the southern region. After finding him for the fourth time, he appears very sick and cannot move. He gives you the coordinates of four square fragments, tells you his tale, and dies. After he dies, you can acquire his cape off of his body.

This outfit is found through completing the dash challenge within the dash upgrade shop. It is acquired after making 800 consecutive dashes after purchasing the chain dash upgrade.




After achieving 800 dashes, you will find the outfit here.

The outfit itself affects your energy consumption, which is used for chain dashing and charged attacks. Your energy consumption is halved.

This outfit is acquired in the North, after finding all sixteen stone monoliths. These monoliths are scattered throughout the world, and tell a very interesting history to those who can decipher the language.

To get to the monolith library, follow this path:

Start at the North Teleport, move up and take the western path(do not cross to the bridge or take the teleporter, just move south)

Dash across here

Move South through the woods, follow the steps down

Make your way through the area until your reach the elevator, take it

Welcome to the monolith library!

When you have acquired all sixteen monoliths, the Ochre Outfit will be unsealed on this slab! The teleporter to the right will take you back to town.

This outfit affects your health. When you have any piece of this outfit equipped, you will have +1 health on your health bar.

This outfit is found in the main town, but in a locked area. To get this outfit, you will need to acquire twelve keys. After that, you'll be able to open the door and find the Arena.


The Arena is found in the Southeast part of town, and is locked behind a 12 key door.

Unlocking the door reveals an elevator. Take it!

Welcome to the Arena. Here you fight a gauntlet of different enemies from each area. If you make it 10 rounds, you beat that part of the arena!


After beating the first four parts, you are brough to the fifth and final arena. This one is a little harder, so be prepared!

Beating all five arenas unlocks the purple/black outfit. Come up here after you're done to claim the outfit!

The White Outfit affects your item interaction speed. This outfit decreases the time it takes to interact with items like health kits and doors.

This item is found in the Western region, and is found behind the 8-module door. To acquire this outfit you must have the chain dash upgrade. I also recommend bringing health packs and the Ochre outfit, as this puzzle can be a bit unforgiving.

There is an 8-module door blocking the way. Collect all modules in the area to unlock it

Past the door, you end up here, move east
