BEAR Alpha New Badge Overview
The BEAR Alpha new badge was introduced as part of The Hollow crossover event, a limited-time quest chain that rewards players with an exclusive badge and a Bear Plush Backpack accessory. Unlike standard survival badges earned by simply outlasting a round, this event badge demands multi-stage completion: a survival objective, a hidden dream dimension, four puzzle-based trophy quests, and a final boss chase.
The quest chain is structured so that no stage can be skipped. Each phase gates the next, and the badge only unlocks after the final chase sequence is completed in full. Below is a breakdown of every stage you must clear.
| Stage | Location | Objective | Reward |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1. Plush Survival | Any BEAR Alpha round map | Find a plushie, hold it, survive until timer hits zero | Access to Phase 2 |
| 2. Enter the Dream | Lobby bed | Click "Sleep" on the bed | Teleport to dream realm |
| 3. Four Trophy Quests | Dream realm zones | Complete painting, cheese, tape, and barn puzzles | Four trophies |
| 4. Trophy Placement | Dream realm spawn | Place trophies in correct positions | Triggers final boss |
| 5. Boss Chase | Chase arena | Run, dodge obstacles, reach the end | Badge unlocked |
The Hollow event is a limited-time crossover. If the event hub is no longer accessible in the lobby, the badge may no longer be obtainable. Check the official BEAR social channels or the Roblox event page for current status.
Phase 1: Plushie Survival Round
The first requirement for the BEAR Alpha new badge is deceptively simple: load into any round, locate one of the bear plushies scattered on the ground, pick it up, and survive while holding it until the countdown reaches zero.
Survival Strategies:
- Prioritize hiding over puzzle-solving; the plushie only needs to stay in your hands until the timer expires.
- Avoid BEAR at all costs; holding the plushie does not grant any protection.
- Complete map puzzles if you can do so safely; finishing objectives accelerates the timer.
- Stay away from open corridors and high-traffic zones where BEAR commonly patrols.
Once the timer hits zero and you have survived the round with the plushie in hand, you are teleported back to the lobby.
Load Into a Round
Join any active BEAR Alpha round. The plushie quest objective begins automatically during the event period.
Find and Grab a Plushie
Search the ground for a bear plushie. They are scattered around the map, often near buildings or along walls.
Survive Until Zero
Hide, dodge BEAR, and optionally complete puzzles to speed up the countdown while keeping the plushie equipped.
Return to the Lobby
After the round ends, walk over to the bed in the lobby and click the "Sleep" button to enter the dream realm.
If you are downed or drop the plushie before the timer expires, the round does not count. You must survive a full round holding it from pickup to zero.
Phase 2: The Four Trophy Quests
Sleeping in the lobby bed teleports you to a separate dream dimension. Here, your goal is to collect four color-coded trophies by completing quests spread across different zones. Each trophy has its own mini-objective.
Yellow Trophy: The Paintings
- Find the building with paintings on the wall
- Click each painting to rotate it upright
- Roughly four or five paintings total
- Difficulty: Easy - pure clicking, no timing
Purple Trophy: The Cheese
- Locate the classic house with a rooftop
- Complete short parkour to reach the roof
- Grab the cheese and deliver it to the bear head room that says "give me the cheese"
- Difficulty: Easy-Medium - light parkour required
Green Trophy: The Tape
- Climb the hill via parkour and pick up the tape
- Insert the tape into the TV
- Memorize four shapes shown in rapid succession
- Replay the shapes in the correct order
- Difficulty: Medium - memory challenge
Orange Trophy: The Barn
- Find the barn and drop into the basement
- Stand on the eye symbol on the ground
- Memorize the distant color sequence (for example: green, black, blue, red)
- Return upstairs and input the colors in order
- Difficulty: Medium - observation challenge
| Trophy | Zone | Puzzle Type | Key Item |
|---|---|---|---|
| Yellow | Painting building | Rotation | Paintings |
| Purple | Classic house | Parkour + delivery | Cheese |
| Green | Hilltop | Memory sequence | Tape |
| Orange | Barn | Color observation | Eye symbol |
You can complete the four trophy quests in any order. If one puzzle frustrates you, move to another zone and return later; progress on collected trophies is retained.
Phase 3: Final Boss Chase and Badge Claim
With all four trophies in hand, return to the spawn area of the dream realm and place each trophy in its correct position. A cutscene plays, followed immediately by the final boss fight: a running chase where you flee from a pursuing boss while dodging obstacles.
Chase Survival Tips:
- Keep moving constantly; standing still gives the boss ground.
- Use sprint generously, especially during straight stretches.
- Watch for monsters popping up from the ground and weave around them.
- Follow the vines; they direct you along the correct path.
- Take your time on tricky obstacle sections, but never stop moving entirely.
Reaching the end triggers a white flash and teleports you back to the lobby, where the badge is awarded. To claim the Bear Plush Backpack, head to the event hub (The Hollow hub), take the elevator to floor nine, locate the bear-themed room, and claim your prize there.
Badge Completion Checklist:
- Survive a full round holding a bear plushie
- Sleep in the lobby bed to enter the dream realm
- Collect the yellow, purple, green, and orange trophies
- Place all four trophies correctly at spawn
- Finish the boss chase and unlock the badge
- Claim the Bear Plush Backpack on hub floor nine
Once the chase ends and you are teleported back, the badge is permanently added to your Roblox profile. The plush backpack reward is claimed separately in the event hub.
Troubleshooting and Common Mistakes
| Problem | Likely Cause | Fix |
|---|---|---|
| Round did not count after surviving | Plushie dropped or picked up too late | Hold the plushie from pickup until timer hits zero |
| Cannot find the bed in lobby | Wrong lobby area or event ended | Verify event is active; check the main lobby |
| Shape sequence keeps failing | Rushing the memory input | Watch the full sequence first, then input slowly |
| Colors input rejected at barn | Wrong viewing angle from eye symbol | Stand directly on the eye and re-observe colors |
| Lost during boss chase | Stopping to plan mid-run | Keep sprinting and follow the vines |
The purple and green trophy quests both involve parkour. If you fall, you simply restart the climb; there is no penalty or trophy loss, so stay patient and retry.
The event quest is completable in standard multiplayer rounds. Teammates can distract BEAR during the plushie survival phase, though each player must hold their own plushie for credit.
FAQ
Q: How do I get the BEAR Alpha new badge from The Hollow event?
Survive a full round while holding a bear plushie, sleep in the lobby bed, collect all four trophies in the dream realm, place them at spawn, and complete the final boss chase. The badge unlocks after the chase ends.
Q: Do the map puzzles count toward the plushie survival phase?
Yes. Completing puzzles during the round speeds up the timer, which shortens how long you must survive while holding the plushie. Only attempt them if BEAR is not nearby.
Q: Can I complete the trophy quests in any order?
Yes. The yellow, purple, green, and orange trophy quests are independent. You can tackle them in any order, and collected trophies are kept even if you leave and return.
Q: Where do I claim the Bear Plush Backpack reward?
After unlocking the badge, go to The Hollow event hub, take the elevator to floor nine, find the bear-themed room, and claim the prize inside.
