Newt Altars

Newt Altars are interactables that can be found on every standard Environment, usually hidden or in hard-to-reach areas. There are 3 to 5 possible Newt Altar spawn locations per stage.

Donating 1 to the Newt Altar will cause a Blue Orb to appear at the Teleporter, spawning a Blue Portal once the Teleporter is charged. Entering the Blue Portal will take the player to the Bazaar Between TimeBazaar Between Time (Hidden Realm)
Hidden Realm: Bazaar Between Time
This stage serves as the shop in Risk of Rain 2. Players can purchase various Items with Lunar Coins or exchange items for higher-rarity ones in two crucibles..

Newt Altars cannot be activated after the Teleporter Event is completed.

It is possible, though rare, for 2 Newt Altars to spawn on the same Environment; however, only 1 of the 2 Altars can be interacted with and does not result in any additional gameplay changes. Sometimes no Newt Altar is spawned, although it is very rare to occur.
