These gadgets, ranging from powerful elemental effects to strategic tools for defence and distraction, are scattered throughout the game. To fully unlock and take advantage of these gadgets, you’ll need to progress through the main story.

All Rare Gadgets in Lego Horizon Adventures
Rare weapons and unique gadgets are found randomly as you progress in Lego Horizon Adventures, with some being more powerful or better suited to your needs than others. You might pick up a flaming arrow, just like Aloy, or grab a Hot Dog Stand that drops explosive bombs on the map. Here’s a full list of the rare gadgets and what they do:
- Rush Boots dashes around enemies in the blink of an eye.

How to get all Rare Gadgets in Lego Horizon Adventures
The rare gadgets are all gifts from the mysterious merchant, and you can only access all ten of them as you progress through the main story. To get the most out of the gadget arsenal available to your heroes, it’s best to focus on advancing the main narrative first before diving into side content. Unlike most of the weapons, rare gadgets have functions in other ways besides fighting against the enemies, while they do not interfere with combat capabilities; knowing what gadget works better in a given situation becomes helpful, and even finding creative ways to use them for manipulating the environment makes it more hazardous for the machines and safer for you.
