Forsaken Items Guide 2026: Every Item, and Why There Are No Perks

Forsaken items guide: all 13 documented items, which 2 spawn in public rounds, how the status effect system works, and why Forsaken has no perks.

Forsaken items are the survivor team's only real equipment system — and if you have been searching for "Forsaken perks", this is the page you actually wanted, because Forsaken has no perks. Let us clear up the most common misconception first: Forsaken does not have a perk system. There is no loadout screen, no perk tiers, no build crafting. What Forsaken has instead is items — physical pickups that spawn at marked locations on the map and give the survivor who grabs them a concrete advantage. This guide covers every item documented on the Official Forsaken Wiki, which ones you will actually encounter in normal matches versus private servers, and how to use pickups well in a game where the round is decided by a clock rather than an escape.

Forsaken Items: The Essentials

• Perks in Forsaken: none — items are the equivalent system
• Items that spawn in standard public rounds: 2
• Items exclusive to private-server command panel: 11
• Categories: support, combat, test, and other
• Where they spawn: specifically marked spots on each map
• Source: Official Forsaken Wiki, Category:Items

If you came here searching for Forsaken perks

Guides that list "best Forsaken perk builds" with names like Sprint Burst, Iron Will, Dead Hard or Decisive Strike are describing Dead by Daylight, not Forsaken. Those perks do not exist in this game — you cannot equip them, buy them, or tier them up. Forsaken's progression spends Player Points on characters and skins, and its in-match power comes from character abilities plus the items on this page. We previously published perk content ourselves and removed it in July 2026 after auditing against the official wiki.

How the Item System Actually Works

Items in Forsaken are map pickups, not loadout choices. You do not bring anything into a round — you find it. That single design decision changes how the whole survivor game plays, because item value is tied to map knowledge rather than pre-match planning.

Items spawn at marked locations

Every map has specifically marked spots where items appear. Learning those spots is a genuine competitive advantage and one of the fastest ways for a newer player to contribute: a survivor who knows where the pickups are on a given map can grab value in the opening seconds while everyone else is still orienting. This is why our per-map walkthroughs are worth reading before you grind ranked rounds — see /forsaken-maps for the full pool.

Only two items appear in normal rounds

This is the detail most guides get wrong. According to the official wiki, just two items spawn in standard rounds. The remaining eleven are exclusive to the command panel available in Roblox private servers, which is why you may have seen footage of players using weapons you never encounter in matchmaking. If you want to experiment with the full item set, private servers are the legitimate route — our guide at /blog/forsaken-private-server-guide-2026 covers how those work.

Items interact with the status effect system

Forsaken runs a status effect system where helpful or harmful effects can be applied to players by items, specific killer abilities, and map hazards. That means an item is not just a one-shot consumable — it is an input into a broader state system, and stacking a beneficial effect at the right moment (or cleansing a harmful one) is where experienced survivors get value that newer players miss.

Using Items Well in a Timer-Based Round

Forsaken rounds are decided by a clock, not by escaping through a gate. A round starts at four minutes; survivors want that clock to run out, killers add time by eliminating survivors, and completing objectives removes time. Item decisions should be judged against that clock, which is a different calculation from what most asymmetrical-horror guides assume.

Support items buy clock, not escapes

A Medkit is valuable because a healthy survivor is harder to eliminate, and every survivor who stays alive denies the killer the time extension they get from a kill. Think of healing as clock defence rather than as preparation for an escape attempt — there is no gate to run to. The same logic applies to any effect that extends your survivability: its worth is measured in seconds denied to the killer.

Grab-on-route, do not detour

Because only two items spawn in a standard round, contesting them aggressively is usually a mistake. The efficient pattern is opportunistic: learn the marked spots, and pick items up when your objective route already passes them. A survivor who crosses half the map for a pickup has spent more clock than the item will return, especially against a fast killer where open crossings are the most dangerous thing you can do.

Watch for the fake variants

The wiki documents Fake Medkit and Fake Bloxy Cola as distinct entries. Treat unexpected pickups with a little suspicion, particularly in modes or servers where they can appear — reaching for what you think is a heal at the wrong moment is exactly the kind of mistake that turns a survivable chase into an elimination.

Pro Tip

The highest-value "item" in Forsaken is not on this list — it is knowing your character's ability well enough to use it correctly, because Experience is awarded specifically for using abilities correctly, completing objectives, and participating in matches. Item pickups are a bonus on top of that. Start with your main's guide at /forsaken-survivors.

Items FAQ

The questions players actually ask about Forsaken items and equipment.

Does Forsaken have perks?

No. Forsaken has no perk system — no loadouts, no perk tiers, no build crafting. Character abilities plus map item pickups fill that role. Any guide listing Forsaken perk builds is describing a different game.

How do you use an item in Forsaken?

Items are picked up from marked map spots and activated from your inventory. Exact keybinds differ across PC, mobile and console — our controls guide at /blog/forsaken-controls-keybinds-complete-guide covers the current bindings for each platform, including how to drop an item.

Why do I never see most of these items?

Because only two items spawn in standard public rounds. The combat items — Glock, Broadsword, Assault Rifle, Gravity Gun — come from the private-server command panel, not matchmaking. If you have watched a video where a survivor pulls out a firearm, you were watching a private server.

Do items carry between rounds?

No. Items are in-round pickups found on the map, not inventory you own or bring with you. Your persistent progression is Player Points (used to buy characters and skins) and per-character Experience levels, which reward milestone skins at level 25 and beyond.

Final Thoughts

Forsaken swaps the loadout-and-perk model most asymmetrical horror players expect for something simpler and more map-driven: a small set of pickups at fixed spots, feeding into a status effect system, inside a round decided by a four-minute clock. Learn where items spawn on the maps you play most, pick them up when your route already passes them, and spend the rest of your attention on your character's abilities — that is where the real power budget lives.
