The Four Masks of Polokus are a group of magical masks that are hidden away in the Sanctuaries, except for the last one which was found by a Baby Globox in most versions of Rayman 2: The Great Escape. It becomes Rayman's goal to find these after Ly tells him about them when she is rescued in the Fairy Glade, as a legend tells that when the masks reunite, Polokus will awaken from his long suspension. Each one is protected by a Guardian, who is instructed by Polokus to ward off any intruders that attempt to steal them.
Each of the Four Masks of Polokus is contained within a four-sided pillar at the end of its Sanctuary; each side of these pillars is decorated by by same O-shaped symbol found on Rayman's chest. When Rayman approaches these pillars, a beam of energy connects his symbol with one of the ones on the pillar, causing the pillar to open, and the Mask to rise out of it for Rayman to collect. When Rayman takes hold of one of the Masks, he is teleported to Polokus, who takes the Mask from him and affixes it to one of the four sides of the pillar he is standing on (this pillar looks the same as the ones the Masks are found in). When all four Masks are attached to Polokus's pillar, the pillar spins rapidly, transforming into a gas-like substance. When Rayman steps into this at Polokus's instruction, he is transported to the Prison Ship. Then, the pillar resolidifies under the newly-awakened Polokus, but the Four Masks are nowhere to be seen.
In the Sega Dreamcast version of Rayman 2, the player can gain access to the Globox Disc minigame in the Globox Village by collecting the Glob Crystals. Entering the Globox Disc minigame causes a short cutscene to play: Globox and Uglette are watching as their children play; the First and Third Masks are visible on wooden sticks in the background; the other two Masks are presumably also in the area. A male baby Globox accidentally drops the Third Mask into a pool of water; this causes a Globox-shaped statue to rise out of the pool. The statue opens its mouth and sinks back into the pool, leaving behind the Globox Disc on which the babies play the "Game of the Gods".
