Not to be confused with Radio Scanner, an interactable that unlocks Environment logs.

The Radar Scanner is an equipment in Risk of Rain 2.

When activated, a holographic projection will quickly emanate from the player outward, marking every interactable within 500 meters with an icon for 10 seconds.

Notes[]

  • Although this item covers a large radius, it is not infinite and some interactables may potentially be excluded from the scan depending on the player's position.

Tips[]

  • Equipment Drone Equipment Drones can make good use of this item by drastically reducing the cooldown, allowing for much more frequent scans for players looking to speedily locate Chests, Shrines, Barrels, Drones, Items, Lunar Pods, and the Teleporter (pre-activation). The only caveat is that Equipment Drones do not use their equipment unless they are looking at an enemy.
