Step-by-Step Platinum Walkthrough
To efficiently earn every trophy and unlock platinum in Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart, we recommend following these steps:
Step 1: Story Playthrough and Missable Trophy Awareness (Any Difficulty)
Begin your adventure by playing through the main story campaign on any difficulty setting. The game’s difficulty does not impact trophy acquisition, so feel free to choose the easiest setting to streamline your playthrough. Focus on enjoying the narrative and familiarizing yourself with the gameplay mechanics. Throughout your story progression, many trophies will unlock naturally as they are tied to story progression or basic gameplay actions.
Be mindful of the single slightly missable trophy: Extinction Event. This trophy requires you to defeat five Grunthors, large dinosaur-like creatures found exclusively on Planet Sargasso. While Grunthors are fairly common on Sargasso, if you actively avoid them throughout the story, you might find yourself short after completing the main game. However, this trophy is easily farmable by repeatedly defeating the first Grunthor encountered on Sargasso if needed.
For collectible trophies, you can choose to gather them as you progress through each planet or mop them up in free roam after completing the story. Step 2 will provide a list of collectibles and links to detailed guides should you opt for post-game cleanup.
Step 2: Collectibles Cleanup & Miscellaneous Trophies
Once you have finished the main story, select “Resume” from the main menu to return to the game world before the final boss encounter. This allows you to freely explore all planets and complete any remaining tasks. At this stage, focus on collecting any missing collectibles and completing miscellaneous trophies.
Here’s a list of collectible types and the number required for trophies, with links to comprehensive guides:
- CraiggerBears: (9 Total, All Required) – CraiggerBear Locations Guide
- Blizon Crystals: (30 Total, 29 Required) – Blizon Crystal Locations Guide
- Spybots: (10 Total, All Required for RYNO) – Spybot Locations Guide
- Zurpstones: (60 Total, All Required for Spybot) – Zurpstone Locations Guide
- Glitch Challenges: (5 Total, All Required) – Glitch Challenge Locations Guide
- Gold Bolts: (25 Total, 5 Required) – Gold Bolt Locations Guide
- Lorbs: (12 Total, 3 Required) – Lorb Locations Guide
- Armor Pieces: (24 Total, 3 Required – Head, Torso, Legs) – Armor Locations Guide
After addressing collectibles, turn your attention to any remaining miscellaneous trophies. Most of these are straightforward and can be earned through general gameplay or by focusing on specific actions with different weapons.
Step 3: Challenge Mode for Final Weapons and Platinum
The final step to platinum involves starting Challenge Mode (New Game+). From the main menu, initiate Challenge Mode in a new save slot. You only need to progress through the prologue until you reach the first Ms. Zurkon weapon vendor. Here, you can purchase the last two weapons, the Bouncer and Pixelizer, for a single bolt each. Purchasing these weapons will unlock the Fully Stacked trophy, signifying that you have acquired all 20 weapons in the game and earning you the platinum trophy: Masters of the Multiverse. There is no need to complete Challenge Mode beyond this point.
