Hegemony Credits are pickups that appear in Enter the Gungeon and Exit the Gungeon, where they are given as a reward for defeating bosses, and used to unlock permanent progression and item unlocks in the Breach / Underbreach.

Hegemony Credits are automatically collected when the player leaves the room they dropped in.ETG

How to Obtain

Hegemony Credits are found upon:

  • Defeating a boss.
    • Clearing a boss without taking damage will double the amount of Hegemony Credits received. This can exceed the maximum amount of credits dropped as shown below.
    • The amount is not doubled if flawlessly defeating a boss during a Rainbow Run. It is only slightly increased.
  • Finishing a hunting quest.
  • Rarely found upon clearing a room.
  • Picking up the Briefcase of Cash.
  • Finishing the tutorial for the first time.

The amount of Hegemony Credits a boss drops is a random amount, based on its floor. The minimum and maximum values per floor are listed below:

Min/Max 1 2/Oub 3/Abbey/4
Min 1 1 2
Max 3 4 5

Very early runs also have highly increased drop values above this maximum.

Uses

Cut Content

  • ETG Prior to Patch 1.0.3, Hegemony Credits would not be collected upon leaving the room.
  • In pre-release versions of Enter the Gungeon, instead of Hegemony Credits, the game used a different pickup called Meta Currency, which resembled a golden coin.

Notes

  • ETG Bosses do not drop Hegemony Credits in Blessed Mode or Boss Rush.
  • Hegemony Credits, along with Blanks are one of the few pickups to have an entry in the Ammonomicon.
    • Hegemony Credits are the only item entry in the Ammonomicon that is indicated as neither Passive or Active.
  • In Shortcut runs the range of Hegemony Credit drops is only 1-2, regardless of floor (With the 2x multiplier still applying, so maximum credit drop for any boss would be 4).
  • Sometimes the Lich can drop Hegemony Credits, though it might be a bug.
