Non-permanent items
Just about everything else you pick up in Returnal disappears from your pockets when you respawn. Whenever you restart the cycle, the only thing you keep from previous runs is your handgun and whatever suit augments, key items, and ether you have.
Is anything permanent in Returnal?
There are no new permanent items to be found in the Citadel, but beating this area will unlock Act 2 of Returnal. From here, players will want to explore the Echoing Ruins until they reach a room with a large, black ball of Ichor floating in the middle.
