Cosmic Essence is a resource that the player can freely convert to any character resource. It is obtainable from Daily Rewards, Legendary wish orbs, the Martian Trader, the store, achievements, and chests.

In chests, it has a 4% chance of appearing in place of a normal character resource. Due to a bug, it always replaces Bananas; Bananas effectively have 4.33% drop rate, while all other character resources have an 8.33% drop rate.
