Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart Trophy Guide
47 Trophies | 1 Platinum
Platinum
Trophy: Masters of the Multiverse
Collect all trophies.
Type: Platinum
Tags: Misc
Unlock Details
Earn every other trophy in the game and this will unlock automatically at the end. Nothing here is missable and the list is very friendly, so just focus on enjoying the game, grabbing collectibles as you go, and cleaning up anything left afterward and you will get this without any real stress.
Collectible
Trophy: Aim to Misbehave
Acquire the RYNO.
Type: Silver
Category: Collectible
Unlock Details
You unlock the RYNO by collecting all 10 Spybots scattered across the game, then purchasing it from Ms. Zurkon. The easiest way is to grab the Map-o-Matic from Ardolis during the pirate trials, which reveals all Spybot locations on your map and makes cleanup much faster. Most Spybots are tied to side quests or exploration paths, so if you have been collecting as you go, you will be close already and can finish this off with a quick sweep before or after the story.

Trophy: Does This Make My Tail Look Big?
Acquire and equip head, torso, and leg armor.
Type: Silver
Category: Collectible
Unlock Details
Collect any three armor pieces, one for each slot, then equip them in your inventory and the trophy will unlock. The pieces do not need to match, so just equip whatever you have as soon as you find them. If you are exploring Pocket Dimensions as you go, you will get this pretty early without needing to grind anything.

Trophy: Feeding Friendsy
Collect 10 Zurpstones for Trudi.
Type: Bronze
Category: Collectible
Unlock Details
Return to Sargasso after progressing the story and accept the Zurpstone side quest, then collect 10 Zurpstones and turn them in to the Mort to feed Trudi. These are scattered around the map and fairly easy to grab while exploring, so just do a quick sweep of nearby areas and you will hit 10 without much effort. This is also worth doing early since it leads to better rewards later.

Trophy: Full Rack
Fill a weapon wheel.
Type: Silver
Category: Collectible
Unlock Details
You need to own enough weapons to fill all eight slots on your weapon wheel, which happens naturally as you keep buying new weapons from Ms. Zurkon. Just prioritize purchasing new weapons instead of saving bolts and you will unlock this without any extra effort.
Trophy: Fully Stacked
Purchase all weapons.
Type: Gold
Category: Collectible
Unlock Details
You must buy every weapon in the game, including the ones only available in Challenge Mode after finishing the story. Most weapons are purchased from Ms. Zurkon across different planets, while the RYNO requires collecting all Spybots. Focus on buying weapons throughout your playthrough so you are not stuck grinding bolts at the end, and remember you will need a quick New Game Plus run to grab the final ones.
Trophy: It's So Fluffy!
Find a CraiggerBear.
Type: Bronze
Category: Collectible
Unlock Details
Simply find your first CraiggerBear, which are small teddy bear collectibles scattered across different planets. You will likely run into one naturally while exploring, especially if you check side areas and interiors instead of rushing objectives.
Trophy: Might've Broken Something
Collect three Lorbs.
Type: Bronze
Category: Collectible
Unlock Details
On Savali, speak to the NPC near the hot springs to start the Lorb quest, then collect three Lorbs marked on your map. Most are simple pickups, while a few require small challenges like defeating enemies or using traversal, but none are difficult. Grab any three and turn them in and the trophy will unlock.
Video Guide: https://www.youtube.com/embed/CPNMt52H0VI
Trophy: More Than Lint
Enter a hidden pocket dimension.
Type: Bronze
Category: Collectible
Unlock Details
You will unlock this the first time you enter any Pocket Dimension, which you will naturally encounter early in the game on Corson V if you follow the optional path toward Club Nefarious. These are marked by purple crystal icons on the map and always contain a short platforming challenge with armor at the end, so just complete one and this will pop without any effort.
Trophy: Nooks and Crannies
Collect five Gold Bolts.
Type: Silver
Category: Collectible
Unlock Details
You need to collect any five Gold Bolts scattered across the planets, which are marked on your map once discovered. These are often hidden in side paths or require small traversal puzzles, so take a few detours while progressing and you will hit five without needing to go out of your way too much.
Video Guide: https://www.youtube.com/embed/UP4cWw9D9Xw
Trophy: Planning Some Destruction
Collect a Spybot.
Type: Bronze
Category: Collectible
Unlock Details
You will unlock this after collecting your first Spybot, which you can get early on Corson V during the factory side objective. Spybots are marked on the map and tied to small challenges or side paths, so just grab one and the trophy will trigger right away.
Trophy: Sartorial Steel
Acquire a piece of armor.
Type: Bronze
Category: Collectible
Unlock Details
This unlocks as soon as you pick up any armor piece, which you will usually get from completing a Pocket Dimension. These are very common throughout the game, so you will likely earn this naturally without even trying.
Trophy: Shiny!
Collect a Gold Bolt.
Type: Bronze
Category: Collectible
Unlock Details
This unlocks as soon as you collect your first Gold Bolt, which you will likely find early if you explore even a little off the main path. Gold Bolts are usually tucked away behind simple platforming or small detours, so just keep an eye out for side routes and you will grab one naturally.
Trophy: UnBEARably Awesome
Find all CraiggerBears.
Type: Gold
Category: Collectible
Unlock Details
You need to collect all nine CraiggerBears hidden across the game. Most are placed along main routes or near obvious landmarks, but a few require small detours or finishing activities like the pirate trials. If you miss any, you can return to planets later, so just explore carefully and clean up whatever you skipped before moving into Challenge Mode.
Video Guide: https://www.youtube.com/embed/oZvvUEsUurg
Grind
Trophy: Just Stay Down
Defeat 30 ejected Nefarious trooper heads.
Type: Bronze
Category: Grind
Unlock Details
Some Nefarious robots will eject their heads after being damaged, and you need to destroy 30 of these after they detach. This happens naturally during the story, but if you want to farm it, replay sections with lots of these enemies and reset checkpoints. Just make sure you destroy the detached heads and not just the main body or it will not count.
Trophy: There's Even a Cupholder
Fully upgrade a weapon.
Type: Silver
Category: Grind
Unlock Details
First, get a weapon to level five, then use Raritanium at Ms. Zurkon to purchase every upgrade node for that weapon. Raritanium is found in blue crystals and dropped by tougher enemies, so grab it whenever you see it. This sounds like a grind, but if you explore and upgrade as you go, you will be much closer than you think by the end.
Trophy: They Blow Up So Fast
Get a weapon to level five.
Type: Silver
Category: Grind
Unlock Details
Weapon XP is earned by hitting enemies, so just keep using a weapon consistently and it will level up naturally over time. If you want to speed this up, find a checkpoint before a large fight and replay it since ammo resets each time, making it an easy grind loop. You will likely get this without trying if you rotate weapons instead of sticking to just one.
Combat
Trophy: Can't Stop Me
Complete a Gold Cup Battleplex Challenge.
Type: Silver
Category: Combat
Unlock Details
You will unlock this by completing any one Gold Cup challenge in the arena on Scarstu Debris Field. These are only available late in the game once most story content is finished, so come back when you are fully upgraded and comfortable with your weapons. The fights are not too difficult, but having stronger weapons and upgrades makes them much smoother, so do not rush this early and just clean it up near the end.
Trophy: Extinction Event
Kill five Grunthors.
Type: Bronze
Category: Combat
Unlock Details
Grunthors are large dinosaur-like enemies mainly found on Sargasso, and you will encounter several during normal gameplay. Just defeat five of them and the trophy will pop, and if you want to speed it up you can defeat one and reset nearby checkpoints to farm it. Aim for the head weak point and stay mobile to dodge charges and rock throws and they go down pretty quickly.
Trophy: Extreme Gardening
Defeat 30 enemies while they are Topiary'd.
Type: Bronze
Category: Combat
Unlock Details
Use the Topiary Sprinkler to turn enemies into plants, then defeat them while the effect is active. Focus on groups of weaker enemies so you can quickly spray and eliminate multiple targets before the effect wears off. This comes naturally if you use the weapon regularly, but you can also farm it by targeting clusters of enemies.
Trophy: Hole Puncher
Get 20 headshots with the Headhunter.
Type: Bronze
Category: Combat
Unlock Details
Buy the Headhunter from Ms. Zurkon and aim for enemy weak spots or heads to rack up 20 headshot kills. Humanoid enemies on Ardolis are perfect for this since they are easy to line up, and you can reset checkpoints if you want to finish it quickly instead of spreading it out.
Trophy: Icebreaker
Melee five frozen enemies.
Type: Bronze
Category: Combat
Unlock Details
Use the Cold Snap weapon to freeze enemies, then hit them with your wrench to shatter them. Frozen enemies stay locked for a few seconds, so target a group and quickly melee them one by one. This is very easy once you have the weapon, so just find a pack of weaker enemies and knock it out in seconds.
Trophy: Life of the Party
Deploy 50 Mr. Fungis.
Type: Bronze
Category: Combat
Unlock Details
Use the Ms. Fungi weapon 50 times by throwing it out in combat. The fastest way is to use all your ammo, then reset at a checkpoint or jump into a death zone to refill and repeat. This is an easy grind and you can knock it out in just a few minutes if you focus on it.
Trophy: No Need for Multiball
Kill two enemies with a single Ricochet round.
Type: Bronze
Category: Combat
Unlock Details
Use the Ricochet weapon on a group of enemies and keep tapping the trigger to bounce the projectile between targets. The easiest way is to aim at weaker enemies grouped together so the bouncing shot can quickly chain kills. Once the same shot takes out two enemies, the trophy will pop, and you will likely get more than two if you time it well.
Trophy: Return Policy
Kill 10 enemies by returning shots with the Void Reactor.
Type: Bronze
Category: Combat
Unlock Details
First upgrade the Void Repulser to level five so it becomes the Void Reactor, then hold the shield to absorb incoming fire until it charges. Once it turns purple, aim at an enemy and fire the stored shots back to kill them. Make sure you keep some distance so the reflected projectiles get the kill instead of the shield blast, and repeat this until you reach ten kills.
Misc
Trophy: Alert the Sponsors
Perform five trick jumps on a grind rail.
Type: Bronze
Category: Misc
Unlock Details
While grinding on any rail, press jump and then jump again mid air to perform tricks. The easiest way is to just keep tapping jump repeatedly while on a rail and you will rack up tricks quickly. You can do this right in the tutorial section, so this is basically free if you mess around for a few seconds.
Trophy: BOING!
Bounce on Big Al, Clank, and Qwark's parade balloons.
Type: Bronze
Category: Misc
Unlock Details
You need to bounce on three specific parade balloons, Big Al during the opening parade, and Clank and Qwark inside the early Pocket Dimension on Corson V. These are all found very early and are hard to miss if you explore the optional path, so just make sure you jump on each one when you see them and the trophy will pop after the third.
Trophy: Hey Lombax DJ
Play three songs on Zurkie's jukebox.
Type: Bronze
Category: Misc
Unlock Details
At Zurkie’s on Scarstu Debris Field, walk over to the jukebox near the arena kiosk and play three different songs. You do not need to listen to the full tracks, just select a song, back out, and repeat two more times and the trophy will pop. This is a quick and easy one, so just knock it out while you are already in the bar.
Trophy: Lombax and Chill
Turn on the TV in Rivet's hideout.
Type: Bronze
Category: Misc
Unlock Details
After defeating the Seekerpede on Sargasso, return to Rivet’s hideout located in the central cave area and interact with the TV inside. It is a simple interaction, but easy to forget if you move on too quickly, so just swing back after the boss fight and grab it.
Trophy: Max Relax
Find the Nefarious citizens by the hot springs.
Type: Bronze
Category: Misc
Unlock Details
On Savali, head to the area near the lizard NPC who introduces Lorbs, then move to the nearby hot springs with steam rising from the water. Walk over to the two NPCs relaxing on chairs by the dock and the trophy will pop. This is a quick detour, so just check the area while exploring and you will get it easily.
Video Guide: https://www.youtube.com/embed/qxepSBQZaFM
Trophy: Must Go Faster
Do a trick jump while going at max speed with the Hoverboots.
Type: Bronze
Category: Misc
Unlock Details
After unlocking Hoverboots on Savali, hold the boost button and tap the acceleration until you reach max speed, then jump and perform a trick mid air. Just keep the boost active, hit max speed, and double tap jump and this will pop almost instantly once you try it.
Trophy: Shifty Character
Hit every Blizon crystal on Blizar and Cordelion.
Type: Bronze
Category: Misc
Unlock Details
You need to hit all Blizon crystals across Blizar Prime and Cordelion, which are the purple crystals that swap dimensions. Most are part of the main path, so just make sure you do not skip any side paths or optional areas while progressing. If the trophy does not pop, you likely missed one, so a quick revisit to those planets and checking alternate routes will clean it up easily.
Video Guide: https://www.youtube.com/embed/6tBohTuhjsE
Trophy: Sweet, Sweet Victory
Collect honey for Chef Tulio.
Type: Bronze
Category: Misc
Unlock Details
On Blizar Prime, accept the side quest to defend Chef Tulio’s honey machine and survive all enemy waves. Use area damage weapons to clear groups quickly and step on the side switches to trigger traps for easy kills. This is a great spot to farm XP and bolts, so take advantage of it while you are here.
Story
Trophy: 2 Fuzz 2 Nefarious
Defeat Doctor and Emperor Nefarious.
Type: Gold
Category: Story
Unlock Details
This unlocks after defeating the final boss during the last mission. The fight starts with the Imperial Power Suit where you need to target the glowing weak points on the hands and face while dodging sweeping lasers and melee attacks, then transitions into destroying the heart by shooting the red nodes while avoiding spinning beams. After that, you will face Emperor Nefarious directly, where staying mobile is key as you dodge his melee charges and laser attacks while clearing any summoned enemies. The fight looks intense but is very manageable if you keep moving and focus on weak points instead of rushing damage.
Video Guide: https://www.youtube.com/embed/kb109LMpJuE

Reach the Archives.
Type: Bronze

Trophy: Glitch, Uh, Finds a Way
Complete all Glitch challenges.
Type: Bronze
Category: Story
Unlock Details
This unlocks after completing all five Glitch sections found throughout the story where you clear virus nests inside infected terminals. Use rockets to destroy nests and turrets to handle smaller enemies while moving between platforms. These are very hard to miss and most are required for progression, and if any give you trouble you can skip them from the pause menu and still earn the trophy.

Defeat the Seekerpede.

In the first phase, keep moving to avoid the sweeping attack, dodge the falling projectiles, and stay out of the laser path while dealing steady damage. In the second phase, ride the Speetle and boost to catch up, then launch onto its back to stun it before repeating the fight. Use your strongest upgraded weapons and break crates for ammo if needed, and do not panic because the fight looks chaotic but is very manageable once you stay mobile.

Roadmap
Early Game
You’ll start on Corson V, which acts as a tutorial but still throws plenty of chaos at you. Focus on learning the core mechanics like dodging, strafing, and using your weapons efficiently. Break every crate you see for bolts and experiment with weapons early so you find what feels good.
Once you reach Nefarious City, the game starts opening up a bit. This is where collectibles begin showing up, so start getting in the habit of exploring side paths and grabbing Gold Bolts, armor, and Spybots as you go. Nothing here is truly missable, but it’s way smoother if you pick things up naturally instead of backtracking everything later.
Don’t stress about perfection early on. Just enjoy the flow, learn the movement, and if something feels confusing, this is exactly where you’d pause and Ask Gami before jumping back in.
Mid Game
Once you reach planets like Sargasso, Savali, and Blizar Prime, the game really opens up. You’ll start getting traversal tools like Hoverboots and Hurlshot, which make exploring way faster and way more fun. This is also where side content becomes more rewarding, so it’s worth taking small detours for armor pieces and Gold Bolts.
Combat ramps up here too, especially with Juggernauts and larger enemy waves. Make sure you’re upgrading your weapons regularly with Raritanium and rotating your loadout so everything levels up evenly. If you stick to just one or two weapons, you’ll feel it later.
You’ll also start working toward collectibles more seriously, but still keep it natural. Grab what’s nearby, clean up easy stuff, and keep moving forward. If you ever feel stuck on a puzzle or route, that’s your cue to Ask Gami and keep your momentum going.
Late Game
As you approach the final planets like Ardolis and Viceron, the game leans heavily into combat and set-piece moments. This is where everything you’ve learned gets tested, so having upgraded weapons and a good mix of crowd control and heavy damage makes a huge difference.
Before heading into the final mission, take a moment to clean up anything obvious. Grab missing armor pieces, finish arena challenges, and make sure your favorite weapons are leveled up. There’s a point of no return warning, so don’t just rush in unless you’re ready.
The final stretch is more about endurance than difficulty. Stay mobile, manage your ammo, and don’t panic when things get chaotic. If something feels overwhelming, slow it down, reset, and approach it smarter.
Trophy Cleanup and Extra Tips
After finishing the story, you can go back and clean up everything you missed. This includes Gold Bolts, Spybots, armor sets, and arena challenges. If you picked things up along the way, cleanup will be quick and painless. If not, it’s still very manageable thanks to fast travel and upgrades.
Use the Map-o-Matic once you unlock it to make collectible hunting way easier. It will save you a ton of time and remove most of the guesswork. This is where you can comfortably focus on finishing off trophies without worrying about progression anymore.
If you’re going for the platinum, just stay consistent and don’t overthink it. Nothing here is overly difficult, and most trophies come naturally with exploration and upgrades. And if anything slows you down, you already know the move… pause, Ask Gami, and get right back to it.
