In this Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart Trophy roadmap, we're going to reveal All Trophies and How to Get the Platinum. As part of our Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart guide, we're going to provide strategies for how to unlock every Trophy in the game, including the all-important Platinum. Please note that this page does include some light Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart spoilers.
Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart: How to Get the Platinum
You'll unlock the vast majority of Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart's Trophies by naturally playing through the game. You can play on the easiest possible difficulty if you want (See Also: Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart: What Difficulty Should You Select?) and you don't even have to find All Collectibles Locations in the game.
Are There Any Missable Trophies? Thankfully, no. While there is a grind rail section with a couple of potentially missable Blizon Crystals for the Shifty Character Trophy, you only need to hit one of the two crystals in this section in order to unlock the pot. Furthermore, it's possible to return to the area after completing the campaign if you follow these steps.
We'd recommend you focus on simply enjoying the game and its story, and completing as much as you want to. You'll need to find All Spybots Locations to Unlock the RYNO, and will also need to find All CraiggerBears Locations. You'll only need to find five Gold Bolts and a piece of Armour in each category, however. Just three Lorbs on Savali will be enough to get you a Trophy, too. Be sure to collect the Map-O-Matic from Ardolis to get any missing collectibles marked on your map.
Remember, if you miss any of the Trophies then you can revisit each area of the game at any point, including the aforementioned grind rail section if you follow these steps. You'll unlock almost all of the Trophies through natural gameplay, and virtually all of the rest can be mopped up easily once you're done with the story.

They Blow Up So Fast
Silver: Get a Weapon to Level Five
Your weapons will level up as you use them and defeat enemies. In order to get a weapon to Level 5, you'll simply need to use it frequently in combat. This should unlock naturally as you progress through the campaign, but you can always unlock it in New Game+ if you miss it. Refer to the following for more information: Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart: All Weapons.
There's Even a Cupholder
Silver: Fully Upgrade a Weapon
You can upgrade weapons with Raritanium at a Ms Zurkon vendor. You'll find Raritanium marked on your map and in plentiful supply on most stages. Levelling up your weapon will unlock new perks for you to spend your Raritanium on. So, in order to unlock this Trophy, you'll need to ensure your weapon is at Level 5 and that you've bough all of its available upgrades from Ms Zurkon.
Full Rack
Silver: Fill a Weapon Wheel
As you purchase more weapons from Ms Zurkon, they'll fill up your weapon wheel slots. You'll need to have eight weapons in order to fill a Weapon Wheel and unlock this Trophy. For more information refer to the following: Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart: All Weapons.
Fully Stacked
Gold: Purchase All Weapons
There are 18 weapons to collect in Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart. You should be able to unlock most of them in a single playthrough, although keep in mind that the Pixelizer and Bouncer will only become available in Challenge Mode. You'll also need to find All Spybots Locations for the RYNO 8. For more information, refer to the following: Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart: All Weapons.
Glitch, Uh, Finds a Way
Bronze: Complete All Glitch Challenges
Glitch challenges are hacking minigames, many of which you'll need to complete in order to progress the story. However, do be aware that a couple of these are optional but are clearly telegraphed to you. Simply interact with the purple, infected panels and complete the minigame to complete a Glitch challenge.
Shifty Character
Bronze: Hit Every Blizon Crystal on Blizar and Cordelion
Blizon Crystals toggle you between different dimensions, and there are 30 in total across Blizar Prime and Cordelion, but you only need to hit 29 to get the Trophy. You'll hit the vast majority of these as you progress through the story, but it's possible to miss some if you're not aiming to find All Collectibles Locations. While practically all of the Blizon Crystals can be accessed once you've completed the campaign, it's worth noting that there's a grind rail section towards the end of Blizar Prime which includes two Blizon Crystals that are potentially missable. While you don't necessarily need to hit them both, you can follow these steps if you want to return to the area.
BOING!
Bronze: Bounce on Big Al, Clank, and Qwark's Parade Balloons
You'll bounce on a couple of characters during the parade at the beginning of the game, but you won't be able to unlock this Trophy until you complete the Pocket Dimension in Corson V. This is the Pocket Dimension where you'll get the Robot Disguise Helmet, so refer to directions through the link for more information on how to unlock this Trophy.
Max Relax
Bronze: Find the Nefarious Citizens by the Hot Springs
You'll unlock this by standing near to the sunbathing Nefarious Citizens on Savali. They're fairly easy to find: you'll locate them near to Ms Zurkon.
Lombax and Chill
Bronze: Turn on the TV in Rivet's Hideout
You'll travel to Rivet's Hideout on Sargasso as part of the story. Just press triangle when prompted to turn on the television and unlock the Trophy.
Alert the Sponsors
Bronze: Perform Five Trick Jumps on a Grind Rail
Any time you're on a Grind Rail in Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart, you can double jump to perform a trick. Do these five times over the course of the campaign to unlock the Trophy.
Icebreaker
Bronze: Melee Five Frozen Enemies
This Trophy can be earned fairly easily by using the Cold Snap weapon to freeze enemies and then hitting the ice cubes with a wrench. However, the easiest way to get it is in the Battleplex Arena, as one challenge tasks you with killing frozen enemies in order to complete it.
No Need for Multiball
Bronze: Kill Two Enemies With a Single Ricochet Round
Once you successfully fire a Ricochet Round, you can pull R2 to bounce it again and again until it expires. If the Ricochet round defeats an enemy then it'll target another one. To get two kills with the same shot, target larger groups of weaker enemies and ensure that the weapon is levelled up and upgraded.
Return Policy
Bronze: Kill 10 Enemies by Returning Shots with the Void Reactor
Half pull the R2 trigger with the Void Reactor equipped to bring up a shield, and then soak up the firepower of enemies wielding firearms. Once you've soaked up a few bullets, pull the R2 trigger all the way to return fire. Just keep attempting this until you've accrued enough kills for the Trophy.
Hole Puncher
Bronze: Get 20 Headshots with the Headhunter
The Headhunter is a sniper rifle you'll unlock in Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart. You can look down the sights of it with L2 and slow time by pulling the trigger beyond the point of resistance. Racking up 20 headshots shouldn't be too difficult.
Life of the Party
Bronze: Deploy 50 Mr Fungis
Mr Fungi works a lot like Mr Zurkon in past Ratchet & Clank games, serving as a distraction and offensive aide. All you need to do is deploy 50 of these cumulatively to unlock the Trophy; get into the habit of deploying them at the start of every battle.
Extreme Gardening
Bronze: Defeat 30 Enemies While They are Topiary'd
The Topiary Sprinkler is used to slow enemies down, opening them up to an attack. Just toss these out into the battlefield to transform foes into hedges, and then cut them down with your most powerful weapon.
It's So Fluffy!
Bronze: Find a CraiggerBear
There are a total of nine CraiggerBears in Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart: one on each planet. For more information, refer to the following: Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart: All CraiggerBears Locations. You'll just need one for this Trophy.
UnBEARably Awesome

There are a total of nine CraiggerBears in Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart: one on each planet. For more information, refer to the following: Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart: All CraiggerBears Locations. You'll need to collect all nine for this Trophy.
Extinction Event
Bronze: Kill Five Grunthors
You'll find at least five Grunthors while exploring Sargasso, although they do appear on other planets, too. You should unlock this Trophy naturally as you progress through the campaign.
Just Stay Down
Bronze: Defeat 30 Ejected Nefarious Trooper Heads
Some Nefarious Troopers have large mech-like armour, which you can eject them from by damaging it. Once the head has popped out, it'll appear as a UFO-like opponent. You'll unlock this Trophy naturally as you play through the game.
Must Go Faster
Bronze: Do a Trick Jump While Going at Max Speed with the Hoverboots
Once you unlock the Hoverboots on Savali, hold R1 and use the L2 trigger to gain speed. Once you reach maximum speed, double jump for the Trophy.
Planning Some Destruction
Bronze: Collect a Spybot
Spybots include lore on the planets you'll visit in Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart. They also include the schematics for the RYNO 8. You'll need to collect just one for this Trophy. You can find more information through the following link: Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart: All Spybots Locations.
Aim to Misbehave
Silver: Acquire the RYNO
You'll need to locate All Spybots Locations to acquire the RYNO 8, and subsequently this Trophy. For more information, refer to the following: Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart: How to Unlock the RYNO 8
Feeding Friendsy
Bronze: Collect 10 Zurpstones for Trudi
One of the side-quests on Sargasso involves you feeding Mort's dragon Trudi. You'll need to find at least 30 Zurpstones to get the Galactic Ranger Boots, so will unlock this Trophy along the way. All of the Zurpstones will be marked on your map.
Sweet, Sweet Victory
Bronze: Collect Honey for Chef Tulio
In order to unlock the Blizar Prime Spybot, you'll be encouraged to complete a side-quest involving Chef Tulio. Simply follow the side-quest markers to unlock this Trophy.
Might've Broken Something

@get2sammyb Great guide thank you, can't wait to enjoy and get the shinny pot.
Section under:
Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart: All Trophies
'There are 47 Trophies to unlock in Returnal'
No biggie but you might want to edit
@Mostik Whoops, thanks!
I was doing a glitch side-quest the night before last.
When I finished, for some reason I was able to interact with the same terminal again and do the next glitch mission.
I knew it was a bad idea and that it would bork something for me.
When I reached the next glitch mission I wasn't able to interact with the terminal, and couldn't unlock the door with the next gold bolt behind it.
If you end up doing another glitch mission at a terminal you've just beaten, turn your game off.
For return policy, I just confirmed that you can soak up the shots from a topiary sprinkler and shoot them at enemies to get the achievement! That way you can complete it anywhere with small melee enemies to make it easy on yourself.
