Items are the secondary part of the player's loadout in Cryptark. The default chassis allows for four items to be equipped at one time.
Functionality varies significantly from item to item, offering offensive, defensive, and utility benefits. At the game's outset, the player possesses the appropriate licenses for only a small selection of items; the rest of the selection will be progressively unlocked upon finding and accessing Tech Advances.
The default controller mapping has one item mapped to each of the cardinal directions on the D-pad.
The following is a list of Items in the game Cryptark.
